But we'll just say Rocky here. So #6, Rocky to Chicago for Briggs, #31, and #37. Draft DT Justin Harrell at #31. Trade the #37 to the Jets for the #59 and the #63. Draft DE Quentin Moses and um...I don't know...DB Daymeion Hughes?

Getting the #37 pick would change things substantially (of course it is just getting back what was once ours and once again making up for a past mistake rather than actually moving forward). In any case, that would change things, but I just don't see the Bears giving up that pick unless they have a similar disregard for their picks as the Redskins "FO" has for theirs.
P.S.
Being 50-50 actually does clear things up because it should be 0% chance. The Redskins having some things in place tentatively, waiting until draft day, seeing if they can deal down a few spots, get more picks and then (if they REALLY want Briggs) making the deal for like the 8th or 10th pick and Briggs. Complicated and maybe unfeasable, but this trade should not happen in the first place. Can anyone show me an instance of a team trading out of the top 10 all the way to #31? Is there any precedent here?
