Chapter 1: What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
Rahimi Harrison-Grody. I don't want to break time. I want to yell at Marshall. Can we handle more Anthony Heron? Middays 10 to 2 on 104.3 The Score. If you are just joining us, we are following the breaking news for Adam Schefter and multiple other reports that the Bills and the Bears are in agreement working to finalize a trade that would send DJ Moore to Buffalo.
Compensation still being discussed. Trade can't be processed until the new league year begins, but both sides are pushing to make that happen. We just had James Big Cat Williams on telling us his perspective on not only Drew Daltman's retirement, But DJ Moore being moved as well. We want to get your perspective. 312-644-6767 is our number here on Rahimi Harris and Grody.
This does, with the cap saving, this opens the door to other interesting, bigger, maybe even better things like Tyler Linderblom, like Max Crosby as a possibility. That is out there. Do we have some fresh Adam Schefter here right now?
Chapter 2: What breaking news about DJ Moore's trade to the Bills is discussed?
They're working on it. They're working on it right now. So they're going to tell us when it's ready. I got you. And let me just, before we take some of these calls, 312-644-6767, right now I'm looking at, because I was naming guys off the top of my head, like of the Bears' all-time wide receivers in the top 20. Yes, DJ Moore right now, 17th overall in Bears history with wide receivers.
I mentioned Alshon Jeffrey, Layla. He is number three overall. He is number... That's Jeffries to you. That is Jeffries to me. He goes to the Jewels. That's right. I've seen him at the Jewels many times. The number four receiver for the Chicago Bears is Walter Payton, followed by Mike Ditka. Curtis Conway, the old USC wide receiver and bear, is sixth overall.
Alan Robinson, who, by the way, will be joining us at 1 o'clock today, we just found out. Our guy Alan Robinson will be on the show. He is number 11 currently on the all-time Bears wide receiver list. Brandon Marshall, number 13. James Scott, back in the 80s, is number 14 overall. Dennis McKinnon, number 20. Cole Komet. Cole Komet is number 19 overall on the Bears wide receiver list.
A couple years ago, he was the team's leading receiver. He was. So there's that part of it, too, as well. I think that was the pre-DJ Moore year, as I recall. A texter asked me here, hey, Grody, does this mean that DJ isn't going to be on TTN? Doesn't necessarily mean that. Take the North? He could still be on Take the North. I do have a text out to him. We'll see if he responds on this day.
Probably doubtful, but we'll see. 312-644-6767 is our number. Here's some more news. This from Jordan Schultz, the NFL reporter.

Chapter 3: How will DJ Moore's trade impact the Bears' future plans?
Schultz's report on Twitter sources say teams in the trade market have gotten the sense that the Raiders are more open to the idea of trading Max Crosby, and it's a situation that is only going to intensify. He also said, I do not get the sense that the Bears are done on the trade market. Those are two separate posts. Wow. I just want you to know those are two separate posts.
Who else would be vulnerable to trade on the Chicago Bears, right? Well, I guess Tremaine probably not. I mean, he is... That's not a splash, though. Yeah, that's likely going to be a cap casualty. Who else are we thinking about here? Who else? Well, it just depends on who there's... At which position do they feel like they have depth?
And then at which position do they feel like they could free up enough money? You know, Cole Komet was discussed as a possible cap casualty. That was in Kevin Fishbane's story a few days ago because of how his contract is structured. So is he possibly next? My first thought when I heard this was...
was because of the fact that this frees up $16.5 million in cap space, that this could be freeing up for possible money to get Tyler Linderbaum, the free agent center who is tremendous out of Iowa, had a wonderful career so far with Baltimore. So Tom Pelissero is now reporting that it is a done deal.
The Bills are sending a 2026 second round pick to the Bears for DJ Moore and a 2026 fifth round pick. So I think that that is important to note as well. Two draft picks for DJ Moore. And now DJ goes to an MVP quarterback in Josh Allen and his former offensive coordinator with the Panthers, Joe Brady, who is now part of the staff, of course, as we know in Buffalo. Big news.
The fact that it was a second-round pick, despite how high he was paid, the familiarity with Brady, I'm sure, helped. And then now Buffalo has their WR1. I think that's pretty good. I don't think that's an insulting get-back for the Bears right there. 20-26, second round, pretty good. And then add in the fifth rounder as well.
The way it had been sounding from what I was hearing, it was going to be lesser than that. So it was good to hear. I'll take that. I'll take that for DJ Moore. So let's go to our phones, 312-644-6767 here on Rahimi Harrison-Grody on the score. We'll do it the next segment as well as we roll through. Let's start with, who should we start with? Jeremy in Albany Park.
Jeremy, you're on Rahimi Harrison-Grody. Hey, thanks for taking my call. You know, I totally get the business side of this. I just feel like as a Bears fan, it's like we can't have nice things in some ways. And I know that this can free up money. But going into the offseason, I think about players that inspire confidence. And DJ Moore... Drew Dallman.
And I'm just like riding off the high last season. And I'm like, you know, these are great players. And I know this makes sense. I totally get it. But DJ Moore, you know, obviously that last, you know, playoff game, not so great, but you look at what he did and was just a, I think, you know, a safety net for Caleb Williams.
