Tyler Clutts
Chicago received Sherrick McManis; Houston received Tyler Clutts. Chicago acquired Sherrick McManis for Tyler Clutts at the 2012 roster deadline. McManis became a long-tenured Bears special-teams standout and reserve defensive back, while Clutts gave Houston only a brief fullback return. The hindsight grades are B+ for Chicago Bears and C+ for Houston Texans, producing a Chicago Bears Win verdict.
Chicago sent Anthony Miller and a 2022 seventh-round pick to Houston for a 2022 fifth-round selection. The Bears later traded that No. 148 pick to Buffalo for Nos. 168 and 203, using No. 168 on tackle Braxton Jones. Jones became the most meaningful downstream asset from the transaction, giving Chicago the stronger long-term return from moving Miller.
2022 5th round pick (150th overall, Thomas Booker)
Chicago received both No. 166 and No. 207. The Bears later converted No. 166 into additional draft value and used No. 207 on Doug Kramer, so the complete two-pick package gave Chicago the stronger aggregate return. That outcome supports a B grade within the Chicago Bears Win verdict. The grade reflects realized football value rather than the size of the original package.
