2019 Needs
1. CB
1. SS
3. K
4. TE
5. RB
6. OG
7. OLB
8. Speed WR
9. P
-Replacing or re-signing Amos and Callahan is obviously tied for priority #1. I have about equal trust in Bush and McManis so again I think the needs are tied.
-With Howard coming back I would say the #2 TE is a bigger need that RB for the 2019 season. Long term it may be RB, but for next season on the field we cannot have a game where Shaheen is waddling around and Braunecker is our passing threat.
-The Bears need a RB that is better than Cunningham and Mizzell for next season and a starter in 2020.
-Depth behind Long will always be a priority. I think Witzmann would suffice for 2019, but a draft pick to provide another option would be okay.
2020 Future Needs
1. CB
2. OG/C
3. ILB
4. DE
-This is simply based on players that the Bears could need to replace. Prince [8] and Long [8] are likely cap casualties. Trevathan, RRH, and Bullard are free agents and could all not be back. I expect Whitehair to be back, but he is also a free agent.
