The Chicago Bears have made several noteworthy trades, but a few turned out to be massively one-sided in the opposing teams’ favor.
One of the most storied franchises in sports, the Chicago Bears have made some of the biggest and worst moves in history.
That’s been standard for every team that has existed within the history of the National Football League. However, not all deals are made equal. Most are often one-sided.
Sometimes, trades are made to avoid future issues, while some are made with the aggressive gamble that the single move and potential mortgaging of the future would be the final piece to a championship puzzle.
Yet, despite all those factors, the Chicago Bears haven’t exactly dropped jaws with many of their trades, except for a few, which you are about to see.

Unfortunately, most of the Bears’ worst trades have evolved around that position, including the three worst, which are about to be unveiled.
Starting with No.3, we go way back in time to a football era that most of today’s younger viewers might have never heard about.
