The Chicago Bears showed their cards by making a big move to address the center position after Drew Dalman's retirement, going into the new league year in a way fans did not see coming.
Bears general manager Ryan Poles executed a trade with the New England Patriots as they landed center Garrett Bradbury. Chicago only had to give up a 2027 fifth-round pick in the process, making the trade on paper look decent.
Much of the concern is that Bradbury was not a highly graded center in the NFL last year, with Pro Football Focus giving him a 60.
