Bears Wire

The 2023 NFL draft is fast approaching, and the Chicago Bears need to fill gaps and gain depth on the offensive and defensive lines. With 10 draft picks, the Bears will have plenty of opportunities to improve in the trenches, and if last year is any indicator, GM Ryan Poles will look to trade back and gain more draft picks in the later rounds. Chicago goes cornerback with their first pick in my latest mock draft. After ending last year with one of the worst passing defenses and the team yet to sign Jaylon Johnson to an extension, the Bears add the best cornerback prospect in the draft to pair with young stars Jaquan Brisker and Kyler Gordon in the secondary.
