Chicago Bears Mailbag: Khalil Mack concerns and much more

with Howard not fitting in Nagys offense who are some guys the bears could look to draft at RB through the draft?
I still think it’s too early to bail on Howard just yet. It seemed like the Bears started to figure out how to use him in Miami. We should wait and see if that continues. However, if they ultimately do decide to move on there should be some solid options available to them in the draft next year. A couple names worth watching are Bennie Snell of Kentucky and Mike Weber of Ohio State. Both have loads of running ability and may be available to them in the 3rd round.

For fantasy? I have both. Started Howard last week and sat Cohen. I almost lost.
The Patriots have shown they know how to at least contain specialty backs like Cohen. I’d take another crack at Howard. New England has allowed at least 100 yards rushing in both of their road games this year. Howard had a nice little bounce-back last week after three poor performances. The Bears know that the best way to beat Tom Brady is by not allowing him on the field too much. That means running the football.
