Ryan Poles has been cautious about not mortgaging the Chicago Bears' future on a big trade.

But now is the time to strike while the iron is hot.

You are Locked On Bears, your daily Chicago Bears podcast.

And you've got teams like the Chicago Bears and others that are contending right now and could use one more piece to really put them over the top.

And I really think Chicago is finally in a position now to make one of these moves in a way that.

Certainly, general manager Ryan Poles wasn't ready to make as recently as last year.

And I think I understood where and why he didn't feel they were there then.

You have to be able to find new blood there.

It's not about locker room chemistry and all these other nonsensical – angles when it comes to the Bears it's about finding guys that can help Austin Booker and Grady Jarrett and Montez Sweat and Neville Gallimore and these other guys the Bears have to be able to find that cap on the line and also be able to get better in the secondary as well so I mean to me this is a must for Ryan Poles You can't just roll the dice in what you have.

You must upgrade.

If you feel like your offense is elite or can be elite or on its way, then help the defense of the football as well.

He's a good player.

Came from the Eagles.

I was told yesterday Ryan Poles is absolutely all in to improve the team.

and that they think they can win the Super Bowl right now.

I don't know like that.

Ryan Poles, I think he'd be middling.

We'll find something in the middle to the back end.

But a front line guy, he'd have to show me.

And honestly, like on Sunday night, the Chiefs couldn't take advantage of it because they just don't have enough at receiver right now.

In terms of the trade deadline two weeks from today, and we spent a lot of time, Hoodie's been screaming for 18, 20 months that he wants defensive upgrades.

We keep hearing Ryan Poles is going to be active and aggressive, and he's trying to add to that room.

Do you see the Bears being aggressive for Jeffrey Simmons, Khalil Mack, DeForest Buckner, Josh Sweat, or...

He's been asked to do a lot.

But now he has an opportunity to prove why Ben Johnson and Ryan Poles drafted him where he is.

And we'll see how good he can do.

And hopefully the game has slowed down and he's kind of digested this offense a little bit.

They traded

away a third-round pick.

Ryan Poles, you should consider this option.

Because I was given my favorite uniforms the other day.

I'm also just going to point out, how many times have we talked to former Bears recently who were either hired or moved or acquired by the previous front office? And that really seems to have affected their opinion of things.

You think Ryan Pace is ruining it for Ryan Poles right now?

I don't necessarily know that, but I think...

He paid him, though.
