The Chicago Bears knew that if they were going to get Caleb Williams off the ground as a rookie, they’d have to surround him with reliable pass-catchers. D.J. Moore and Cole Kmet were already in place. That was a good start, but more was needed. Uncertain of what to expect in the upcoming draft, GM Ryan Poles opted to explore the trade market. He was soon surprised to find out that six-time Pro Bowler Keenan Allen was available, and the Los Angeles Chargers could no longer pay his salary. Chicago flipped them a 4th round pick for his rights.
