Chicago Bears Depth Chart after the 2019 NFL Draft
How is the Chicago Bears depth chart affected by the 2019 NFL Draft? We take a look position-by-position, including all reported UDFA pickups.
The 2019 NFL Draft has come and gone, and the offseason is all but over. Mini-camps are right around the corner and training camps are within reach of our desperate outstretched arms as our addiction to football, even if it’s grown men in gym shorts and helmets.
With most teams’ 90-man rosters all but filled, it’s time to figure out just where everyone fits in.
The Chicago Bears took the league by storm going from 3-13 to 12-4 in just one season, winning the NFC North. After falling short to the Philadelphia Eagles in the Wild Card round, the Bears went back to the drawing board.
Rearranging and adding to their roster, and removing pieces that didn’t fit (within the goalposts) any longer. With both free agency and the draft now out of the way, let’s take a look at how the depth chart should look heading into traning camp.
