Carolina Panthers and Chicago Bears
Carolina sent picks No. 124 and No. 166 to Chicago in the 2026 draft and received Nos. 129 and 144. The Panthers used the new selections on Will Lee and Sam Hecht, improving their fifth-round position by 22 spots while sliding only five places in the fourth. With the players still early in their careers, the exchange remains a balanced Day 3 reshuffling rather than a settled long-term result.
