The Chicago Bears traded the No. 1 pick in the NFL draft to the Carolina Panthers for additional selections, as well as wide receiver DJ Moore. While they right on the border of the top 10, Chicago is still in a position to land a top prospect at No. 9.
When looking at the Bears’ roster, it’s clear that the defensive and offensive lines remain the two biggest needs heading into the draft. But that’s not a guarantee that general manager Ryan Poles goes that direction with the team’s first selection. After all, Poles has said he doesn’t prioritize need over landing the best player available.
