The Chicago Bears made a major trade on Thursday, as they acquired star defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons from the Tennessee Titans. With this move, the Bears made it clear that they are big buyers with the trade deadline almost here. Now, their next goal should be to strengthen their offense.
Because of this, they are now being linked to a veteran tight end from the Philadelphia Eagles. In a recent article for Bleacher Report, Kristopher Knox named the Bears the top potential landing spot for Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert. With the Bears needing more depth at the tight end position, it would be understandable if they made a push for Goedert.
He has been an effective player for a while now and could be a very good player for a contender like the Bears to add. This is especially so when noting that he has a Super Bowl ring on his resume. In six games this season with the Eagles, Goedert has recorded two touchdowns and 228 receiving yards.
This is after he had a career-high 11 touchdowns and posted 591 receiving yards in 15 games with the Eagles last season. With numbers like these, the Bears would be wise to pursue Goedert if the Eagles officially shop him.
