Montez Sweat SUSPENDED, Dayo Odeyingbo INJURED—Should Ryan Poles Make SPLASH Trade For Bears?

Episode Summary

With the trade deadline approaching, all eyes turn to GM Ryan Poles—will a splashy move for a top pass rusher like Khalil Mack be on the table? Is left tackle a lingering weakness on a surging Chicago offense, or does the real issue lie in finding reinforcements for a battered defense?
