What’s the value of Bennett on the trade market thinking jets, Broncos, Dolphins as fits. But what do you think they have to give up
A very late-round pick, if anything. He’s not exactly cheap, and other clubs probably assume the Bears will just release him eventually, so the rest of the league can just wait until he’s a free agent and not have to give up a pick.
