Yeah, Sweat is a good player. The Bears being buyers at the trade deadline is wild though because they need all the assets they can get.

I guess they can justify it by saying Sweat is better than anyone they'd draft with what they traded away.

Yeah, any DE in this year's draft around that pick will not be better than Sweat. And with two likely top 10 picks, have to imagine Poles trades down with one of them and recoups a second at the very least. So there's that.

Johnson was given permission to seek a trade. That's no guarantee that he gets traded.

Yeah this is true, and there are rumours that other teams have heard what Johnson wants contract-wise and balked at it, so that may be helpful for negotiations with Chicago too.
