The Bears have risen from 7th to 5th most valuable NFL franchise, at $5.8B in the latest Forbes c
Valuation of franchises. The top 4 are ‘Da Boys, Pats, Rams, and Giants.

In other financial news, the team has indicated that it wants to retain ownership within the McCaskey family after Virginia’s passing. She once had 19.7% f the team stock but it isn’t known how much she still controls. At least several of the kids and grandkids have indicated they don’t want to be in the football biz any longer and these will have to be addressed. The NFL has been tinkering with ownership rules since 2015 so that the old time teams don’t have to sell under tax burdens at death.
Drafts are like snowflakes, no two are alike.
