T<\/span>he Buffalo Bills<\/strong> delivered quarterback Josh Allen<\/strong><\/a> a major boost Thursday, acquiring wide receiver DJ Moore<\/strong> in a trade with the Chicago Bears<\/strong>.<\/p>\n According to ESPN insider Adam Schefter<\/strong>, Buffalo will receive Moore and a 2026 fifth-round pick<\/strong>, while Chicago gets a 2026 second-round selection in the deal<\/strong>.<\/p>\n The move gives Allen another proven target as the Bills continue reshaping their roste<\/strong>r under new head coach Joe Brady<\/strong>. Moore<\/a>, who signed a contract extension with Chicago in July 2024, was set to carry a $28.5 million cap hit in 2026.<\/p>\n While his 2025 season was relatively quiet – posting 50 receptions for 682 yards – the 27-year-old receiver is expected to strengthen Buffalo’s passing attack<\/strong> as the team continues its push toward a Super Bowl<\/strong> appearance.<\/p>\n Allen has been the centerpiece of the Bills since the franchise selected him seventh overall in the 2018 NFL Draft. The former MVP has turned Buffalo into a perennial contender<\/strong>, though the team has yet to reach the Super Bowl during his tenure.<\/p>\n Beyond the trade, the Bills may also look to reinforce their quarterback depth<\/strong> in the upcoming 2026 NFL Draft.<\/p>\n With backup Mitch Trubisky<\/strong> potentially entering free agency next year, analysts have projected Buffalo could target Luke Altmyer from Illinois Fighting Illini<\/strong> football as a late-round option.<\/p>\n Altmyer, a three-year starter and team captain at Illinois, completed 67.4% of his passes for 3,007 yards, 22 touchdowns and five interception<\/strong>s in his final college season.<\/p>\n While evaluators praise his experience in pro-style concepts and leadership traits, scouting reports note limitations in arm strength<\/strong> and his tendency to take sacks under pressure.<\/p>\nBuffalo will use the draft to secure support for Allen<\/h2>\n
Who is Luke Altmyer?<\/h2>\n
