The Chicago Bears, who secured the No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, are potentially looking at trading the coveted selection instead of choosing elite quarterback prospect Caleb Williams. According to longtime NFL reporter Peter King, there's speculation that the Bears could keep current quarterback Justin Fields, the 11th overall pick in 2021, and trade down in the draft to build a stronger supporting cast for him. This comes after ESPN NFL insider Jeremy Fowler suggested that a quarterback-needy team might trade up in the draft, with the New England Patriots' No. 3 spot being a potential landing spot for such a trade. Fields has expressed his desire to stay in Chicago, and trading the No. 1 pick could allow the Bears to surround him with top talent for years to come. Stay tuned for further updates as the Bears weigh their options leading up to Draft Day.
