The Great Trade of 2023 concluded with the Chicago Bears selecting University of Missouri wide receiver Luther Burden III with the 39th overall pick in the 2025 NFL draft, originally owned by the Carolina Panthers. The Panthers had traded this pick, along with several others, to acquire the top pick in 2023, which they used to draft quarterback Bryce Young. Although Young had a rocky start to his career, showing improvement towards the end of 2024, the trade has been viewed as lopsided, particularly given the Bears’ successful acquisitions from that deal.
