While the offense got most of the attention early in the NFL draft, the Chicago Bears did manage to give their defense some help. It came in the form of Shemar Turner, a defensive lineman out of Texas A&M. The buzz around him cooled somewhat after last season, where he battled through a broken shin...
The Chicago Bears operated according to a plan that fans aren't used to in the draft. Sure, they hear every year that the team wants to draft the best player available, regardless of position. However, the team always ends up taking somebody at the most obvious position of need. In 2023, it was an...
People often forget that the construction of an NFL roster is rarely complete. It doesn't end with the NFL draft and undrafted free agency. Teams are always looking for ways to tweak the depth chart, for backup help, for special teams help, or maybe even for a late addition to the starting lineup....
Drafting a running back was technically accomplished by the Chicago Bears. However, it didn't go the way many expected, or hoped. There were constant dreams of adding somebody from the 1st round for the first time since 2005. When that didn't come to pass, it felt like the 2nd round was the perfect...
The NFC North is the best division in football, at least based on what happened last year. Detroit, Green Bay, and Minnesota all finished with at least 13 wins and made the playoffs. Nothing like it has ever been seen before. Even the Chicago Bears, while going 5-12, weren't far away from 9-8 if...
The draft didn't go as planned for the Chicago Bears, at least according to fans. They had been expecting a big swing at running back. New head coach Ben Johnson built his highly successful offense on the ground game. D'Andre Swift isn't a true workhorse type that can carry a full load. They had to...
Predicting what will happen in a draft a full year before it happens sounds like a losing proposition. There is no telling which players will actually declare and which will stay in school. Teams projected to pick high may not do so because they have a better season than expected. Last but not...
Taking a tight end in the 1st round of the NFL draft was not something Chicago Bears fans expected after the end of last season. If you'd polled people at the time, most would've said offensive line, pass rusher, or maybe running back. However, things always take unexpected turns in the offseason....
One of the biggest surprises of the 2025 draft for many experts was wide receiver Luther Burden falling to the 2nd round. Going into last season, it looked like the Missouri standout was destined to be a high 1st round pick. However, he had a down season in 2024. Yet that alone wasn't the reason he...
George McCaskey reiterated many times that his intention has never wavered that the Chicago Bears would remain under the control of the McCaskey family. Still, people wondered if Virginia McCaskey's death would cause some problems when the time came. Sure enough, she passed last year at the age of...
Ben Johnson was always the endgame for the Chicago Bears. Or at least it was for GM Ryan Poles. He knew early on that the Detroit Lions' offensive coordinator was the one he wanted to take over the development of Caleb Williams. However, he knew he couldn't strong-arm the process by cutting...
You always get a good idea of what a team has done in a draft when you hear from people with no skin in the game. These men and women are part of the national media or work inside the NFL for another team. Even better, getting the opinion of a full-blown skeptic is probably the most honest...
