The 2022 NFL draft has arrived, and the Chicago Bears will welcome a new rookie class to the fold this weekend.
Chicago has just six draft picks, including none in the first round for the third time in the last four years. But the Bears do have two second-round draft selections, as well as a high pick in the third round. There are chances to find some impact players.
Here’s where the Bears will be picking in the 2022 NFL draft:
- Round 2, Pick 39
- Round 2, Pick 48
- Round 3, Pick 71
- Round 5, Pick 148
- Round 5, Pick 150
- Round 6, Pick 186
New Bears general manager Ryan Poles has plenty of work ahead of him, as there are an abundance of needs ranging from wide receiver to offensive line to cornerback.
It doesn’t sound like Poles is entertaining the idea of trading up. But he certainly sounds like someone who’s considering trading back — if the price is right.
The 2022 NFL draft runs from Thursday, April 28 through Saturday, April 30.
