8. Should the Chicago Bears trade Yannick Ngakoue?

The Chicago Bears signed Yannick Ngaoue early into training to boost their pass rush. However, while he has done okay, he is someone who feeds off of a being the second guy or making clean-up sacks. That is why he was around so late in the offseason. Beyond that, he struggles against the run, and we saw that with all of the missed tackles he has had this season.

The Chicago Bears could actually make the most of this by trading Ngakoue and getting something in return. It will not be the greatest return, but right now, any contender hungry for a pass rusher would overpay because it will be so hard to add anyone of his caliber.

We already saw his happen once in the NFC North. The Minnesota Vikings tried to sign Ngakoue, they got off to a bad start, and they moved him to the Ravens. There is a reason to think this could happen again. The Chicago Bears probably do not view him in their long-term plans, and he would be best served on a roster with higher aspirations.
