Finding a trade partner for the Chicago Bears and their number one pick shouldn’t be hard in 2023.
With teams needing a quarterback this year, the Bears can make a deal with whoever they want.
However, there are two teams that should make trading with the Bears a priority in 2023.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are now without a quarterback since Tom Brady announced his retirement.
His retirement leaves the team with elite receivers but no quarterback to get them the ball.
While they have a second-year quarterback heading into 2023, they need an elite quarterback.
With Tom Brady having retired today, the Buccaneers only quarterback under contract for the 2023 season is Kyle Trask.

Getting the top pick from the Bears can help them stay in playoff contention in the NFC South.
With the NFC South being the weakest division in the NFL last season, an elite rookie quarterback can do enough to reach the playoffs.
While fans might not like the requirements from the Buccaneers to get the number one pick, it would be worth it.
Las Vegas Raiders
The Las Vegas Raiders head into the 2023 NFL Draft without a quarterback.
A decision to cut starting quarterback Derek Carr leaves the team without a proven signal caller.
While the team could be in the running to trade for Aaron Rodgers, they are better off trading for the number one pick.
They have some players and draft capital, two things that the Bears will accept from any team in a trade.
With the Raiders needing an elite quarterback, trading for the number one pick gives them their new franchise quarterback.
