Chicago Bears: Six More Players Team Should Trade

Coming off of the best season of his career, Martellus Bennett is a player who should receive some serious attention in the trade market should the Bears make him available. Bennett is still under contract until 2017, but it is certainly fair to wonder whether the Bears even have a chance to compete by then.

Obviously, they should not give him away for nothing, but Bennett is a player on the Bears’ roster who would be a huge upgrade for most contenders. They should get nice value in a trade for him.

Bennett is a 6-foot-7, 248 pound tight end with impressive strength and athletic ability. He is among the best players at his position in the entire league, and has become a true match-up nightmare in the middle of the field.

Bennett was selected to the Pro Bowl for the first time in his eight-year NFL career last season, as he led all tight ends with 90 receptions, which totaled into 916 yards and six touchdowns. Bennett is a true weapon in the passing game and a very good blocker for his position.

Getting value for him while they can makes sense for the Bears. Bennett could be a major contributor for a contender down the stretch.
