Re: Sweat to the bears for a 2nd rounder
Agreed. He's not in with the Parsons/Macks/Watt's, but he's always been a solid pass rusher and playmaker. Wish him the best. Sad to see him go but he's being wasted here under JDR and Ron.

Re: Sweat to the bears for a 2nd rounder
Per John Keim:
Grade for the Commanders: A I'm pleasantly surprised the Commanders recognized they ought to be dealing away players at the deadline rather than acquiring them, and that they chose Sweat to be the player to trade as opposed to Chase Young. In comparison to Sweat, Young appears to be a much better long-term asset. Young is almost three years younger and has a 25% pass rush win rate at edge this season, which ranks 11th-best. Not only is that three times as high as Sweat's PRWR at edge this year, but it's also significantly better than Sweat's best PRWR in any year. By dealing Sweat now, the Commanders are gaining future resources, which they need. It also will be helpful in their negotiation with Young, who is in the last year of his rookie deal. Had they kept Sweat and Young, they would have only been able to franchise tag one of them. Now, the threat of the tag on Young is stronger, though cornerback Kendall Fuller is a pending free agent, too. Theoretically, the Commanders might have been able to let Sweat walk in free agency and gained a compensatory selection, but that pick would have been no better than a 2025 late third-rounder -- and even that would have been far from guaranteed. Washington ranks fourth in effective cap space in 2025, per Over The Cap, so it could be a big spender in free agency, thus possibly canceling out a compensatory pick. The cherry on top here is that this is the Bears' second-round pick, so it will very likely be early in the round.

Re: Sweat to the bears for a 2nd rounder
All great points. A move that just had to be made, and we got the best possible return.

Re: Sweat to the bears for a 2nd rounder
Perhaps Ron has been already told he will not be back next year, and to go out and get as many picks as he can for the new regime.
I would trade Chase. He is never going to be a dominant player. He can feast off of scrub players but that's about it. The defense plays better w/out him. |

Didn't like the pick when we chose him, still don't like it now. Thanks for the flash your rookie year, all your hard work to try and get back on the field and we wish you the best. It stings getting a 2nd rounder if that's the case but I'll take it. Update. Stings even harder that it's a low 3rd round. Ouch.

I hope he stays but I'll accept it if he goes as long as the return is satisfactory. |

Re: Sweat to the bears for a 2nd rounder
A third for Chase? Well done SF. Fuck you Ron.

Re: Sweat to the bears for a 2nd rounder
You know Young will live up to his status now in SF with better coaching. What a stupid fucking trade, he’s having an awesome year and gave away for nothing.

Re: Sweat to the bears for a 2nd rounder
I preferred to keep Young, but understood the Sweat move. The ownership has my trust for now as I do like they're getting an early jump on the off-season per se'.

Re: Sweat to the bears for a 2nd rounder
This is all on ownership, but we need to rebuild.

Re: Sweat to the bears for a 2nd rounder
Rebuild my ass!! All we needed was 2 OT, MLB and better coaching. To give away two of the best DE’s is fucking stupid.
