The Chicago Bears received a significant haul from the Carolina Panthers in exchange for the first overall pick in this month's NFL draft.

Chicago dealt Carolina the selection in exchange for the No. 9 overall pick, a 2023 second-rounder, a 2024 first-round pick, a 2025 second-round selection and wide receiver D.J. Moore. 

"I knew from the jump that they were a team that really wanted their quarterback," Bears general manager Ryan Poles said of the Panthers.

"They wanted to control the draft. That meant a lot to them. They got in front early, at the combine. I had a good relationship with their general manager, Scott Fitterer, and felt like at that time it was best to close on the deal when we did, instead of dragging it out."
