Chicago Bears trade targets to pursue during the bye week headlined by some game-changing RBs and the ideal Dennis Allen CB

RB Breece Hall, New York Jets

Sticking with another 0-4 team who could start moving assets, Breece Hall is starting to become an intruging trade option to consider and Ben Johnson could use his connection with New York Jets head coach Aaron Glenn to work something out.

However, Braelon Allen's knee injury he suffered on Monday Night could complicate things and deter the Jets from moving their top back.

On the other hand, Hall is in the final year of his rookie contract and the Jets opted to prioritze other young standouts with new contracts instead. "I wasn't drafted by them, I'm not their guy," Hall said back in June when asked about a new contract. Hall is an exciting young player who would be a top target on the free agent market at the end of this season. Any team would be smart to trade for him and lock up a deal now to avoid getting out-bid next spring on the open market.

RB Tyler Allgeier, Atlanta Falcons

Now, let's look at a more plausible move the Bears could make to improve the backfield. Trading for a starting level player would mean a higher trade value return plus sets up a difficult decision to make with D'Andre Swift at the end of the season. Trading for a player like Tyler Allgeier would be cheaper and allow the team to keep Swift in a two-back rotation.

Allgeier is used to that role playing second-fiddle behind Bijan Robinson. Atlanta is unlikely to re-sign Allgeier after the season and could look to get a return out of him at the deadline. He runs with some power between the tackles and fits the bill for what Chicago is currently missing on offense.

CB Riq Woolen, Seattle Seahawks

On the defensive side of the ball, the Bears will get some reinforcements after the bye week in linebacker T.J. Edwards and cornerback Kyler Gordon set to return along with defensive end Austin Booker aiming to return off the injured reserve.

However, another questionable position is the outside cornerback spot after the loss of Jaylon Johnson. Tyrique Stevenson has stepped up in a massive way as the team's new top cornerback but Nahshon Wright has had his issues and the depth is a big concern behind those two players.

Riq Woolen would fit the scheme really well as a press-man corner who has the size and speed defensive coordinator Dennis Allen and DBs coach Al Harris covet. Woolen is very similar to Zah Frazier, whom the Bears drafted in the fifth-round but placed on the season-ending NFI. Having a core of Johnson, Woolen, Gordon, Stevenson, and Frazier in 2026 would be insane. Even if Woolen isn't extended by the Bears, it's a worth having him in the mix to help out with the depth concerns for the remainder of the season.
