Analysis: NFL Network's Scott Pioli confirmed the Bears tried to get Matthew Judon and if that's the case then apparently they see a need still. Would they pursue Haason Reddick?
If the Bears were involved in pursuing edge rusher Matthew Judon, it's safe to say GM Ryan Poles and coach Matt Eberflus are not entirely satisfied with the edge rusher situation.
"They were one of the teams that were talking to the Patriots," Pioli said. "They were talking to the agent for Matthew Judon. I was watching this whole thing unfold.""When it happened, I thought there was a really good chance," Pioli said about the Bears getting Judon. "But what it came down to was the money and what was going to be done with the contract."
Unless they think Daniel Hardy has found a sudden formula for success he didn't have in L.A. previously or last year in Chicago, or that Khalid Kareem was holding back in the past and has something, they can use that extra edge. No doubt Poles knows how this game of trade demands is played. He just played it in 2022 with Roquan Smith.
Reddick could be more valuable than Judon because he has 50 1/2 sacks over the last four seasons and is younger. Reddick turns 30 later this season."It's not our problem; he's not on our team. You want to stay out? You stay out."The thing about Judon, however, is he came in at a size the Bears like in a defensive end at 6-3, 270. Reddick is only 240 pounds. A player like that would be a part of the pass rush but not necessarily the base defense.
