Da Windy City

● By Ryan Heckman
The countdown is officially on. With six days before the 2022 NFL Draft, all eyes are on Chicago Bears general manager Ryan Poles and head coach Matt Eberflus. The past three months have been largely disappointing for fans who expected any major moves this offseason. However, the Bears have a chance to make up for an underwhelming free agency period if they go about the draft the right way. At this very moment, the Bears have some pressing needs that include: wide receiver, offensive line and cornerback. Other needs include linebacker, defensive line, safety and punter. But, with all of the hype around this year’s wide receiver class, some of the latest rumblings on social media give a feeling that Poles might go after bigger guys with his early picks — no surprise, really, coming from a former lineman himself.
