Bears Wire

The Chicago Bears are gearing up for an important offseason, which includes free agency (where they’re projected to have $118 million in salary cap space) and the 2023 NFL draft (where they have the first overall pick). With Chicago having the No. 1 overall pick, they essentially control the draft. Considering the Bears have their franchise quarterback in Justin Fields, general manager Ryan Poles is expected to trade back from first overall — and he’ll have no shortage of suitors.
