New trade down theory coming out of League circles

This makes the most sense for the Bears IMO.  

But if I'm the Texans, I would have to be 100% convinced the difference between Young and Stroud warrants giving up what they would probably have to to secure #1.

The problem  that could arise for Chicago is that they may not net as much capital if they move to 2 and then we just trade to the 3 with the Cards. It'd be a gamble because  I'm sure to trade to 2 won't net them that much  in return from Houston.

It depends on our QB rankings, I'd say they'd need to have this ironed out for both moves before they hit the Texans trade.

If they go to 2 it could reduce the amount the colts want to pay and they could potentially end up with no future firsts because I dont see the Texans giving one either. They'd need us or the Colts to be game to move to 2 with the appropriate package to really hit the trade with the Texans.

I'll be a little surprised if the Texans are that motivated to move up a pick.

Yeah, what would that even look like?  Has a team ever traded from 2 to 1?  Im sure its probably happened but I cannot recall.  I would think it would only net Chicago maybe a 2nd and something like a future 3rd or 4th?

Bears traded from 3 to 2 for Trubisky and got like two 3rds and a fourth. Feels like it could just net out where our package would reduce close to what the Texans pay.

So only way it really makes sense is if we have a limit we are willing to pay we refuse to go over and we have 2 QBs we like a lot. The Bears could reduce the cost to move to 9 via the Texans package to move to 1 or something, and then we could align on value.

this would effectively be a three team trade, if Chicago and Houston agreed to a deal there would already be a handshake agreement in place for a pick swap of 2 and 9.

We couldn’t “screw them over,” the deals would be announced likely one after the other

They’ll be motivated if they know #1 is going to someone else. 

For the bears, they could get a 2nd this year from the Texans plus a 1st (next year), 2nd this year, maybe a 2nd next year from us.

Houston caring enough about having a specific guy is the biggest obstacle here, but there is a bit of motivation for them do so:

scewing Indy over.

they take a guy, we take a guy, colts get the scraps

      No, but considering that over a third (~35%) of their schedule are the other three teams in the NFC South and all three have strong starting (and back-up) RBs that the offense leans heavily on to open up the pass game. ATL: Bijan has this season and next season before the Falcons have to make a decision on his fifth-year option, Tyler Allgeier is a proven back-up RB that could start for some teams, and 2024 sixth-round selection Jase McClellan returns from a knee injury that sidelined him for the remainder of the season starting in early September. Combine that with their QB situation, and that's a team that is going to lean heavily on the run just like they did last season when they were 8th in the league in rushing attempts, 10th in rushing yards, 8th in rushing TDs, 9th in rushing attempts on 1st down, . NO: Similar situation as ATL, but for different reasons. Derek Carr is in the second to last year of his deal and the QBs behind him are Spencer Rattler, Jake Haener, and Ben DiNucci. However, they also have Alvin Kamara. One thing that we know about Kellen Moore from his stints as an OC is that he likes to lean heavily on a versatile RB1 while bringing in an arguably equally versatile RB2 to keep their foot on opposing defenses. When Moore had Zeke in Dallas, Zeke was 4th in the league in touches during those four years but Pollard still averaged 10 touches and nearly 60yds a game. Look for the Saints to shore up their RB room in the draft with Kendre Miller, CEH, Jordan Mims, and Xazavian Valladay all competing for touches behind Kamara. TB: Bucky Irving exploded onto the scene last season, but we can't forget more than capable (now-)RB2 Rachaad White. White is on the last year of his rookie deal, but Irving is under contract until 2028. Last season, the Bucs were 10th in rushing attempts, 4th in rushing yards, 3rd in YPC, 7th in carries of 20+, 8th in carries of 40+, and 7th in first down rushing attempts and that helped Baker Mayfield be one of the most efficient passers in the league with a 71.4% completion percentage (good enough for 2nd in the league).
