Odds never should've been that low to begin with to be quite honest with you. Wonder if it was the sportsbooks themselves planting these posts and aggregating them like crazy on social media. Pretty easy way to drum up business.

Has Bergeron and Harrison as potential first round picks.

Gonna keep saying it…. If Poles doesn’t leave round 1 with a tackle it will be slim pickings by pick 53. There are simply not enough tackles to meet demand.
It seems to happen pretty often. Once the oomph of the talent is expended teams start drafing offensive tackles and a run on the position ensues. For whatever its worth Ryan Pace in his last draft with the Bears did anticipate this and moved up to get ahead of it. I don't know if he got the right player ultimately, but he did have a pretty keen sense for what was about to happen.

They have draft capital to move up from 53 if they need to or cap space to sign a stopgap if needed. Carter at 9 is the only acceptable option in my book for them to not take a tackle or trade back from 9.

THis is where I have been at since the FA OT shakeup. IMO this is such an important year for Fields' development, getting an acceptable cast around him to put up the best possible QB season needs to be priority #1. In many ways this is a put up or shut up year for Fields, for the Defense its just another season. Not every hole can be filled this offseason but some problems are more urgent than others, I dont see an argument more compelling than OL for this team.

Bears trade down twice in the 1st round.


25. Chicago Bears: Calijah Kancey, Pittsburgh DT

Things didn’t quite work out for Ryan Poles in terms of landing the offensive tackle he wanted, but he loves that Kancey is still on the board here and Matt Eberflus does a backflip in the war room. Flus gets his 3-tech and Poles knows he still has some good opportunities in round 2 to strength the rest of his roster.

Round 2

32. Chicago Bears: Anton Harrison, Oklahoma T

Poles doesn’t wait any longer for a tackle. Plenty of teams call the Bears Friday afternoon to see if the Bears are willing to trade down, but after trading down twice in the first round, Poles is pleased Harrison is still on the board and he finally grabs his tackle.

53. Chicago Bears: Derick Hall, Auburn Edge

Some experts felt Hall could go in the first round, but he takes a bit of a slide and Poles is thrilled to grab him here at 53. With Kancey already boosting the defensive line, Poles does a really nice job adding another player who could potentially start this year.

57: Chicago Bears: Julius Brents, Kansas St CB

Despite the secondary being one of the stronger positional units on the Bears’ roster, they still need another corner, especially with the future of Jaylon Johnson up in the air after this season. The Bears grab some secondary insurance and pick up Brents who will compete to start in year one.

64: Chicago Bears: Zach Charbonnet, UCLA RB

If Luke Getsy wants to run the ball, then Luke Getsy gets to run the ball. With a strong run-blocking offensive line and the weapon that is Justin Fields, the Bears grab Charbonnet to give themselves an incredible stable of backs with the rookie, D’Onta Foreman and Khalil Herbert.

80: Chicago Bears: Tucker Kraft, South Dakota State

Ryan Poles loves Cole Kmet, but he can’t believe his luck that Kraft is still on the board here. This is a deep tight end class and Kraft, despite being from a small school, has all the tools to succeed at this level. Bears fans Adam Shaheen flashbacks, but Kraft is a far better prospect and won’t let fans down.

103: Chicago Bears: Juice Scruggs, Penn State C

Poles has done a great job so far, but he hadn’t addressed the interior offensive line yet, but he doesn’t wait any longer with Juice Scruggs still on the board. Scruggs is a great fit for the Bears’ scheme and could potentially compete for a starting spot in 2023, if not, he should be starting at center for Chicago by 2024.
