Maaaaannnn. Jeffery Simmons Is a Bear. #Fthempicks.

You know how I say “Top of the top, let’s get rich” damn near every morning on social media?

Well, Bears fans just got rich this morning.

Chicago is reportedly trading for Titans star defensive tackle Jeffery MF Simmons.

• Chicago gets Simmons and a 2028 fifth-round pick.

• Tennessee gets our first-round picks in 2027 and 2028, plus a 2027 fourth.

Yes, TWO firsts. I read it twice too.

“But Ricky, that’s a lot to give up.”

It absolutely is. You should get something expensive when you spend that much.

And we got Jeffery fucking Simmons.

The man is 29. Four Pro Bowls. First-team All-Pro last season with a career-high 11 sacks. From the INTERIOR. And he already has four sacks, six tackles for loss, and 38 tackles through seven games this year.

Tennessee just gave him a three-year, $105.8 million extension this summer. This isn’t some deadline experiment where we spend the next three months trying to figure out whether we should keep him.

That’s somebody you expect to help you win right now.

And right now is what I care about.

The Bears are 5-2. We have a football season worth getting greedy about.

I don’t want to get to January, watch an opposing quarterback stand comfortably in the pocket, and spend the entire offseason talking about how we should’ve found somebody who could move him.

We found somebody.

The Bears reportedly had interest in DeForest Buckner before he went to San Francisco. So we already knew they were looking for help inside. Coming away with Simmons? I’m damn good with that.

We have a football season worth getting greedy about.

And this pass rush help is much needed. Our secondary is banged the hell up. Coby Bryant and Dallis Flowers are on injured reserve. Malik Muhammad is dealing with a toe injury. Anthony Johnson Jr. is out too. You can’t keep asking the guys filling in to hold up while the quarterback takes his time.

Simmons inside next to Grady Jarrett, collapsing the middle, should give Montez Sweat and Austin Booker more chances to finish off the edge. Make the quarterback uncomfortable. Make him get rid of it before he wants to. Help the guys in the back by getting home up front.

And even when he doesn’t get the sack, I want the quarterback dealing with his big ass being somewhere he wasn’t supposed to be.

Preferably staring over him like the Principal Skinner meme

And the funniest part? Simmons was telling reporters Wednesday that he hadn’t heard anything from his agent or the organization about a trade. As far as he knew, he was staying in Tennessee.

Thursday morning? Somebody needs to teach him “Good, Better, Best” and Ben Johnson’s stanky leg. He’ll be seeing both soon.

Welcome to Chicago, Big Fella.

Poles looked at this team and decided it was worth pushing his chips to the middle of the table.

And that's the part I wanted from my front office. Give the guys in that locker room that extra boost and vote of confidence. Give them ANOTHER reason to believe this year can be THE YEAR.

You did that today.

Now excuse me while I become completely unreasonable about the Chicago Bears.

Let’s go get a fucking ring.
