Caleb Williams is likely to hear his name called first at the start of the NFL Draft Thursday night. When the NFL convenes its annual selection meeting in Detroit, the Chicago Bears have the first pick, and they are almost assuredly going to make the USC quarterback the No. 1 pick in the 2024 Draft. […]

The 2024 NFL Draft is only one week away, and let me tell you, I’m so grateful that this is the case, because at the moment, the discourse around the league is starting to get a little wonky. Not only do we have legendary former head coach Bill Belichick coming out and saying not to […]

The Chicago Bears still have their eyes on USC Trojans product Caleb Williams. It appears that the NFC North franchise remains committed to the narrative that many have been expecting to happen with the No. 1 2024 overall pick, the one that Chicago has complete rights to by way of the Carolina Panthers. It’s the […]

The Chicago Bears are entering a new era after parting ways with former starting quarterback Justin Fields. Chicago traded Fields to the Pittsburgh Steelers after three seasons.

Chicago comes into the 2024 NFL Draft with only four picks — 1, 9, 75 and 122, but I fully expect that Ryan Poles will find a way to acquire more picks over the course of the three days of the Draft. And as you’ll soon see, my line of thinking lines up nicely with […]

Unless something majorly drastic happens, there’s no reason that the Chicago Bears won’t be drafting USC quarterback Caleb Williams with the No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft on April 25. Williams has been the No. 1 prospect going all the way back to his first season with the Trojans two years ago […]

The Chicago Bears have made a handful of exciting trades so far this offseason, sending former franchise quarterback Justin Fields to the Steelers and acquiring wide receiver Keenan Allen from the Chargers. One side effect of both those trades is that Keenan Allen may be able to wear number 13 again with the Chicago Bears. […]

In a little over two weeks, the lives of many will change after the 2024 NFL Draft. Some players will become instant millionaires (if they weren’t already through NIL deals in college), while the teams that select them will be hopeful yet still curious if they made the right decision, knowing the future of their […]

The Chicago Bears are on the clock with the first pick in the 2024 NFL Draft and former USC football quarterback Caleb Williams is perceived to be the slam-dunk, home run pick. Not everyone is on board with the idea of Williams being the Bears’ top pick, however, including former Alabama football quarterback Greg McElroy. […]

The Chicago Bears are seemingly set to select quarterback Caleb Williams with the No. 1 pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, but they hold the No. 9 pick as well, and after the owner’s meetings, general manager Ryan Poles has directed different groups of his staff to go through position groups like offensive tackle, defensive […]

As grueling as an NFL season can get, it’s no surprise to see some players continue to keep their bodies in top shape during the offseason. Some endure rigorous workouts, stick to a strict diet, and constantly analyze film to improve their game. For Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore, he takes a radically different […]

Three weeks from today, the Chicago Bears will select Caleb Williams with the 1st overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. I say this as if it is a virtual certainty, and that’s because if they don’t, it will instantly become one of the most stunning and memorable moments in NFL Draft history. This is […]

It’s no secret that Washington Huskies wide receiver Rome Odunze is one of the premier prospects at the position in the 2024 NFL Draft. The Consensus All-American led the country with 1,640 receiving yards in 2023, completely dominating PAC-12 defenses on a weekly basis. As a result, the football world has put the 21-year-old on […]

The Canadian Football League (CFL) has long been seen as an NFL alternative and a safe haven for talented but struggling football players to get their careers back on track. The league may get a new member soon in ex-Steelers and Bears wide receiver Chase Claypool, who has reportedly been added to an exclusive list […]

Thanks to a trade with the Carolina Panthers in last year’s event, the Chicago Bears have the distinct luxury of having the No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. That means that unless something severely drastic happens, they’ll be taking USC quarterback Caleb Williams with the first pick. However, that doesn’t mean there […]

In 25 days, the Chicago Bears will likely use the #1 pick in the NFL Draft to select USC quarterback Caleb Williams. For longtime fans of the Bears, myself included, the idea of selecting a quarterback who is widely considered to be a generational prospect feels a little bit like an April Fools Day joke. […]

The trade of Keenan Allen from the Los Angeles Chargers to the Chicago Bears has resonated through the NFL, highlighting the often stark realities of the league’s business side, even for its most celebrated players. Allen, who has been a cornerstone of the Chargers’ offense for over a decade, found himself at the center of […]

The Chicago Bears are in the midst of an undeniably active and potentially historic offseason, which could eventually be the impetus for a full-blown franchise revival.

The Detroit Lions may have won the NFC North last season, but they’ve had to slug it out in a division that includes fellow playoff contender Green Bay Packers as well as Justin Fields and the Chicago Bears. The Bears, in particular, gave the Lions quite the headache during the regular season. This is exactly […]

The Chicago Bears are entering the 2023-24 with a clear goal and it’s to develop their NFL Draft prospect in Caleb Williams. Unfortunately, this meant letting go of Justin Fields in the offseason.

The Chicago Bears currently hold the first and ninth picks in the 2024 NFL Draft and are said to be leaning toward former Heisman Trophy winner Caleb Williams of USC football with the number one pick. The number nine slot could be a lot more tricky, with Notre Dame Fighting Irish offensive lineman Joe Alt, […]

The Chicago Bears have become one of, if not the most interesting team in the entire 2024 NFL Draft. That goes back to last year’s draft when they first held the No. 1 overall pick but traded it to a quarterback-needy Carolina Panthers. One part of the trade was that the Panthers gave away their […]

USC quarterback Caleb Williams is a foregone conclusion for the Chicago Bears’ No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, so it is not much surprise Bears head coach Matt Eberflus heavily praised Williams at the NFL owners meeting. Eberflus, who is entering a crucial third year as the Bears’ coach, said he and […]

Caleb Williams continues to be a major topic ahead of the 2024 NFL Draft, with most people expecting him to be the top overall pick by the no other than the Chicago Bears.

It won’t be official for another month when NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell heads to the podium to announce the first pick of the 2024 NFL Draft on April 25, but Caleb Williams is all but a guarantee to be the name said as the selection for the Chicago Bears. The Bears are doing their homework […]

In a matter of days, the Los Angeles Chargers parted ways with wide receivers Mike Williams, who signed with the New York Jets earlier this week, and Keenan Allen, who was traded to the Chicago Bears for a fourth-round pick in the upcoming NFL Draft. Allen had known no other NFL team besides the Chargers […]

The Chicago Bears are seemingly zeroing in on selecting Caleb Williams with the No. 1 pick after trading Justin Fields to the Pittsburgh Steelers, and although many on the outside believe that is the right move, it does not mean that the move is not emotional for Fields’ former teammates, including wide receiver DJ Moore, […]

The general consensus across the nation is that the Chicago Bears will use the No. 1 pick in next month’s NFL draft to select Caleb Williams, the impressive quarterback from the University of Southern California.

Caleb Williams, who emerged as a star with USC football, was already expected to be the No. 1 pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.

It seemed inevitable that the Chicago Bears would trade quarterback Justin Fields, but that did not mean that core players on the team like Cole Kmet would not be sad when the deal ultimately did happen. Kmet was going to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day, but was no longer in the mood to celebrate when Bears […]

Outside of the Philadelphia Eagles doing their best rendition of the 2011 “Dream Team” offseason with hopefully better results, no team has made more noise this offseason than the Chicago Bears. Led by third-year general manager Ryan Poles, they have been very active in the early days of free agency while capitalizing on the salary […]

The Chicago Bears have been one of the most active teams in the offseason, making many big deals. Chicago moved 2021 first-round pick Justin Fields to the Pittsburgh Steelers for a sixth-round pick that can become a fourth-round pick if Fields plays 51 percent of the Steelers’ snaps. Chicago also holds the ninth overall pick […]

The Chicago Bears have crossed out some major boxes in the NFL offseason, having already traded for former Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen before sending quarterback Justin Fields to the AFC North with the Pittsburgh Steelers. With both of those moves now behind Chicago, increased attention is being paid to what the NFC […]

Perhaps the biggest decision any NFL franchise had to make this offseason revolves around the Chicago Bears and their quarterback situation.
