Twitter reacts to Bears trading Chase Claypool to Dolphins

The Chicago Bears have traded receiver Chase Claypool to the Miami Dolphins, the team announced Friday.

As far as compensation goes, it’s essentially a swap of late round picks with the Bears getting a 2025 sixth-round pick in exchange for Claypool and a 2025 seventh-round selection.

Chicago had been trying to trade Claypool since last week, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, and they finally were able to get a deal done.

As you can imagine, NFL fans had plenty to say about the move. Especially considering the disaster of a trade it was for general manager Ryan Poles, who sent a second-round pick to the Pittsburgh Steelers for Claypool, who didn’t last a full calendar year.

But Poles did admit his mistake in trading Claypool, and many were actually surprised the Bears got anything at all in return, as Claypool was trending toward being released.

Here’s how Twitter reacted to the Bears trading Claypool to the Dolphins:
