    Should the Chicago Bears expect value in return for DJ Moore or is this a salary dump?

    0:00 Bears offseason needs 22:10 DJ Moore 27:00 NFL replay issues As the Chicago Bears continue shaping their 2026 roster, we break down the team’s biggest offseason needs—starting with the secondary, defensive line, linebacker group, and offensive tackle positions. Which areas should be the top priority? And how should the Bears address them through free agency, the draft, or both? We also dive into one of the biggest questions of the offseason: What should the Bears do with veteran wide receiver DJ Moore? Is he a valuable trade asset who could bring meaningful draft capital in return? Or is he headed toward becoming a draft‑day salary casualty with a smaller‑than‑expected return? We explore every angle. Around the league, the NFL has a growing replay problem. The issue? The system is understaffed and, somehow, doesn’t have enough cameras in key situations. In a multibillion‑dollar sport that dominates American television, it’s baffling that the league hasn’t invested in more personnel and more angles. A full episode of Bears analysis, roster strategy, league commentary, and offseason debate. #chicagobears #bears #chicago #chicagosports #calebwilliams #sportstalk Make sure to subscribe to... ✅ Dan Bernstein Unfiltered ✅ Forward Progress - A Chicago Bears Podcast 🏈 ✅ Organization Win Championships: A Chicago Bulls Podcast 🏀 All links to YouTube, Apple, Spotify and more available on 312Sports.com See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
