Windy City Gridiron

We’ve officially reached December, meaning the end of the football season is right around the corner. College football is winding down, but there are still many conference championships and bowl games to watch play out. There’s also still an enticing race to the playoffs among NFL teams. Though this time of year may be tough for Bears fans, there’s one thing to look forward to: the 2023 NFL Draft. Exactly where the Bears end up selecting remains to be seen. However, with a 3-9 record and a difficult schedule remaining, it’s hard to see them ending up with a draft pick that isn’t one of the higher selections in the class. While this could make the rest of the regular season tough to watch, it also means that they get a chance to take one of the best players in college football in the first round.
