Per Rapsheet:
Poles has made a couple of bold moves. The Vikes have run a base 4-3 for 98% of their existence. What would you give up in draft capital & $$ to extend him 3-4 years? He was 11th in PFF's Edge Defender list & had a great 86 grade last year.

I've been filtering out a lot of these articles as it is a slow time for journalists, and I am sure the many are just making stuff up at this point.
Outside if that, I just don't see Poles going after someone with that much mileage on his body (8 years in the NFL) and giving up his precious draft capital for him. If he is willing to sign someone that old, there are several edge guys available as unsigned free agents. There are some decent pass rushers available without the price tag that the Vikings will want.

As a division rival the only way the Vikings trade him to the Bears are if the Bears spectacularly over pay for him, or the Vikings send him to us with a time bomb implanted in his knee.

I keep seeing nonsense BS from Sportsmockery and the like saying the Bears are still keeping their options open for Chase Young, but Washington wants a first round pick.
A first round pick. For a guy they didn't extend a fifth year option on. Seriously, I'm waiting for them to cut this guy and the Bears to get him on waivers.
