The Bear’s Den, March 12, 2026

THE DAILY SPONGIE SPECIAL

Smythe should be replaceable, no problem.

The draft capital the Bears would have to give up in order to trade for Crosby is merely one piece of the equation, though. They’d have to be reasonably confident in his health and in their ability to fit his contract into their future plans.

The Chicago Bears are losing one of their playmakers on defense after safety Kevin Byard III has reportedly agreed to terms with the New England Patriots.

With the Baltimore Ravens backing out of their trade with the Raiders for Maxx Crosby on Tuesday night, the Chicago Bears must look into how a deal can get done for the star pass rusher.

Note: That 2027 is not a typo.

In case anybody was wondering about FA DT’s.

That’s a guy I would have liked to see in Chicago.

I wonder if “Nine” will meet him at the door?

The league office news now is under Know Thine Enemy. I’ll give you a couple… no make that three rounds of guesses why.
