The Chicago Bears have the no. 1 overall pick in the upcoming NFL draft on April 25. You’ve surely been made aware of that fact many, many times over the last few days, weeks, months. You’re also probably quite aware of the fact that the overwhelming consensus opinion among media experts and analysts is that Chicago will be selecting USC blue-chip quarterback prospect Caleb Williams with that privileged draft pick. You’re probably aware that the Bears have the overall no. 9 pick in the draft as well and that a good chunk of media believes that general manager Ryan Poles…

The Chicago Bears appear dead set on selecting USC blue-chip quarterback prospect Caleb Williams with their overall no. 1 pick in the upcoming NFL draft on April 25. It’s a move that many say could be a franchise-altering acquisition for Chicago. But why? What kind of 22-year-old is garnering this kind of attention and drawing comparisons to legends such as Aaron Rodgers and Patrick Mahomes? What Makes Caleb Williams Special? Obviously, there’s the physical aspect of his game. Williams is a phenomenally gifted athlete who can do a bit of everything on the field. But what appears to make Williams…

The Chicago Bears, by most accounts, seem dead set on selecting USC blue-chip quarterback prospect Caleb Williams with their overall no. 1 pick in the first round of this year’s NFL draft. But that doesn’t mean that HAS to happen. The Washington Commanders, who will draft right behind the Bears in the no. 2 slot, have reportedly been eyeballing the DC-area native, Williams, since he was in college and would also seem likely to pick the highly-regarded, possible franchise-altering prospect in a heartbeat if he was made available. Because of this, many analysts and media experts have tossed out ideas…

The Minnesota Vikings are reportedly looking to back up the proverbial Brinks truck of draft capital for a shot at picking up a franchise quarterback in the upcoming NFL draft. There have been a ton of reports insinuating that the Vikings have been lusting after a franchise quarterback in this month’s draft. And, reportedly, they’re willing to give up a ton– to the point of, maybe, mortgaging the team’s future for the privilege of moving up from their current no. 11 draft slot. Minnesota Vikings Focused on Trading into Top 5? To their benefit, Minnesota has two first-round picks this…

The Chicago Bears and their fans have every reason in the world to feel optimistic about the positive direction of their team. Not only do they have a young, talented nucleus and the recent addition of veteran talent like Keenan Allen, D’Andre Swift, and Ryan Bates (among others) via trade and free agency, but they also have two first-round picks in this upcoming draft– one, the overall no. 1 pick. That particular no. 1 gem will give them the opportunity to draft USC’s blue-chip quarterback prospect Caleb Williams, who many experts are calling a generational talent and a possible franchise-altering…

The Chicago Bears have two picks in the first round of the upcoming NFL draft, and not much else. While having the first overall pick and the ninth overall pick is nothing to sneeze at, the team is absent capital in the rest of the draft, with only a third-round pick (no. 75) and a fourth-round pick (no. 122) in the remaining rounds. For that reason, it’s widely believed that Bears general manager Ryan Poles will make a draft day trade to acquire more selections, likely using that ninth pick to do so. Poles has certainly not been shy about…

The Chicago Bears have been the subject of dozens upon dozens of mock draft proposals and trade theories since it was confirmed that they’d have the first-overall pick in the 2024 NFL draft. And, although the wildest of the ideas seemed to fizzle away after the trade of quarterback Justin Fields and the all-but-confirmation that they’d be selecting USC blue-chip quarterback potential franchise-altering prospect Caleb Williams, there are still some wild rumblings from the outer edges of the NFL media landscape. So, how about we explore the lunatic fringe and talk about a wild-eyed draft-related trade proposal that, actually, might…

The Chicago Bears have more reason for positivity than negativity when it comes to this month’s NFL draft. On the happy side of things, the team will have the overall no. 1 pick in the draft and, as a result, first dibs on USC blue-chip quarterback prospect and buzzed-about potential franchise-altering presence, Caleb Williams. Chicago will also have a second first-round pick inside the top ten, at ninth overall. It’s exceedingly rare to have such an opportunity to select two big-time impact players in the same draft. On the frowny side of things, though, the Bears will only have four…

The Chicago Bears are said to be on the precipice of a franchise-altering moment in their long and storied history. They’re now days away from drafting USC blue-chip quarterback prospect and consensus Mr. Everything, Caleb Williams with the very first selection of this upcoming NFL draft. When the Bears front office took the calculated gamble of trading away their overall no. 1 pick in last year’s draft to the Carolina Panthers for wide receiver DJ Moore and a haul of draft capital, they had no idea that one of the prizes returned to them would be this year’s overall no.…

The Chicago Bears have two first-round picks in the upcoming NFL draft. It’s pretty safe to say that they won’t be touching their first one– the overall no. 1 with which they’ll probably be selecting super well-regarded, super-hyped USC blue-chip quarterback prospect Caleb Williams. But that second pick, at no. 9? That one is practically screaming “trade me.” That’s especially the case for a Bears front office with only four picks in this draft and, presumably, a strong desire to add draft capital. Chicago Bears May Be in the Market for Draft Capital So, it’s not all that improbable that…
