Since there is already an offensive depth chart discussion, here is the defensive side.
DEFENSE
Cornerback (6): Kyle Fuller, Prince Amukamara, Bryce Callahan, Marcus Cooper, Sherrick McManis , Cre'Von LeBlanc
The Bears paid big bucks to Fuller and Amukamara in the offseason. Callahan is an underrated nickel back.
Safety (4): Eddie Jackson, Adrian Amos, Deon Bush, DeAndre Houston-Carson
Jackson and Amos developed nice chemistry last year. The Bears are still searching for a dependable backup safety.
Linebaker (9): Leonard Floyd, Danny Trevathan, Roquan Smith, Aaron Lynch, Sam Acho, Nick Kwiatkoski , Joel Iyiegbuniwe, Kylie Fitts, Isaiah Irving
Defensive line (6): Akiem Hicks, Eddie Goldman, Jonathan Bullard, Bilal Nichols, Roy Robertson-Harris, John Jenkins
The Bears believe Hicks and Goldman have Pro Bowl potential. Chicago needs Bullard to step up and round out their starting lineup up front.
SPECIAL TEAMS
Punter (1): Pat O'Donnell
The Bears re-signed O'Donnell in the offseason.
Kicker (1): Cody Parkey
Chicago guaranteed Parkey $9 million.
Long snapper (1): Patrick Scales
Scales missed last year because of an injury but he's still the front-runner to win the starting job.
Kick returner (1): Tarik Cohen
Cohen is a future Pro Bowler on special teams.
Punt returner (1): Tarik Cohen
Cohen returned a punt for a touchdown as a rookie.
