Chicago Bears

Chicago Bears will need a wide receiver in next year’s draft. It’s no secret national analysts don’t think highly of the Chicago Bears’ prospects in the 2022 regular season. One analyst has the Bears taking a wide receiver with the second pick of the 2023 draft. That would mean the Bears would be heading for a disaster on the field this season.

The Chicago Bears added a heap of free agents as they attempted to rebuild the roster overnight. The result is more of a tear down than a rebuild at this point, but they had to start somewhere. While they did not spend big money, or trade-up, or add the big names that fans wanted, they did bring in over 20 new players expected to make the roster.

I hope you are ready for the biggest gap of the year when it comes to football and football-related news. The Chicago Bears wrapped up their final minicamp on Thursday and now the team will not meet again until training camp at the end of July. This will give us...

Going into the 2022-23 NFL season, the Chicago Bears surely aren’t Super Bowl contenders. That said, are they the Yin to that Yang? Meaning, are they likely to be the first team on the clock in the 2023 NFL Draft?. ESPN broadcaster Louis Riddick was prompted with a question...

The Chicago Bears roster has changed a lot over the past 12 months. Just last year we wrote up the cornerback depth chart, and looking back a year later there are certainly some changes. It is not as drastic as other positions, but this is what the depth chart looked like before training camp started last year.

The Chicago Bears’ top three defensive ends are locked into their roles. Robert Quinn, Trevis Gipson, and Al-Quadin Muhammad will struggle to lose playing time to rookie Dominique Robinson and Ryan Pace leftover Jeremiah Attaochu. They will mix and match these three, and likely get Robinson into the mix as well as their top four edge-rushing threats.

There is no doubt that the Chicago Bears roster looks plenty different than it did, even compared to this time a year ago. After the Bears OTAs in 2021, we did a post-draft depth chart to sort out each position. A year later we have a new GM, a new head coach, and all kinds of roster changes.

With the departures of key contributors this offseason, the Chicago Bears are left with no choice but to turn to their unproven players for valuable reps in 2022. Ryan Poles’ first season as general manager for The Chicago Bears has been highlighted by the emphasis on the bigger picture. The Bears lost a lot of star power by moving on from both Khalil Mack and Allen Robinson. Additionally, the team wasn’t overly active in free agency and mostly made depth signings.

The Chicago Bears hosted their first offseason training program that featured rookies, and other less experienced NFL players. While the camp is all about getting rookies on the right page before they get into OTAs with the rest of the veterans, it also is a tryout environment for some players who did not sign UDFA contracts.
