Kyle Fuller, Chicago Bears Cornerback

Why This Trade Makes Sense:

The Chicago Bears have cemented themselves as having one of the most physical defenses in the entire NFL. However, the exact opposite is said about their offense. Whether led by Mitchell Trubisky or Nick Foles, the Chicago offense is lackluster at best. Meanwhile, the Steelers defensive crew that requires the most attention is that of the defensive backs. So why not go for arguably the best CB that one of the most lethal defenses has to offer?

And there is some strategy involved with selecting the Bears as the team to approach for a trade. Chicago is desperate for more offensive playmakers, so a dual-threat who has proven his ability to be a top ten running back in the nation should have the Bears management salivating. And while Kyle Fuller is a solid defensive presence, he is not even the best Chicago player on that side of the ball, so this deal should be a shoo-in if the Steelers were to pitch the idea.
