Whichever path Bears general manager Ryan Poles picks with the No. 1 choice in the upcoming draft, it’s an opportunity to upgrade a roster that badly needs it.
He most likely will be shopping the pick in the hope of landing an incredible trade package for it like the Dolphins got when they held the No. 2 overall pick in 2021 and didn’t plan to use it on a quarterback because they had Tua Tagovailoa. They knew someone out there would be desperate, though, and the 49ers called with an offer of two future first-rounders to move up from No. 12.
