Keenan Allen

At the league meetings, Poles discussed the team's free-agent moves and flexibility in the draft at No. 9.

Harbaugh said the No. 5 pick is "like the No. 1 pick of the draft for teams that have a great quarterback already."

Speaking at the NFL owners' meetings, Poles discussed what he's hearing about Williams, trading Justin Fields and trading for Keenan Allen.

The Bears have four selections in the NFL Draft this year. What happens after they take their new QB with the first pick?

No surprise, the Kirk Cousins addition vaulted Atlanta to the top of the list of winners. Weren't the Cowboys supposed to be all in?

The Chargers' approach to moving or reducing their big four salaries was all about ensuring flexibility this season and in the future.

The Chargers traded Allen to the Chicago Bears for a 2024 fourth-round pick earlier this month.

If it's Caleb Williams, he'll enter a nice situation with the Bears, as the depth chart shows us more talent and fewer holes than usual.

“We can be really special,” said Allen, whom the Bears acquired from the Chargers for a fourth-round pick.

Trading Allen was the most baffling of the Chargers' cap-saving moves. It's a bold one, but isn't that the point of a new regime?

The Bears and Chargers have been circled as teams likely to draft a wide receiver in the top 10. Does their trade change that?

This deal is so good for the Bears it might actually make up for the Chase Claypool move in 2022.

The Bears acquired Allen from the Chargers for a fourth-round pick. He'll form one of the NFL's best receiver tandems with DJ Moore.

Allen earned his sixth Pro Bowl selection last season.

Further moves could come to give the Chargers more salary cap space to operate and the team still needs to add a starting center.

Retaining Khalil Mack on a restructured deal shows the Chargers want to win and not just clear the books of expensive contracts.

The Chargers need to clear more than $28 million in salary-cap space by Wednesday's 1 p.m. Pacific start of the new league year.

As Jim Harbaugh and Joe Hortiz take over the Chargers, they have cap space to trim, draft picks to use and needs all over the roster.
