We’re in the middle of what Bears fans hope is a return to the playoffs, following a nice win in Philadelphia. So, the draft is probably not the first thing on your mind right now.
But watching this team, we all see the deficiencies and have a good idea of where the Bears need to improve.
For that, they can use free agency. But the best way, and the cheapest way, is to build through the draft.
Jerry Angelo has not had the greatest success in the draft, but so far, last year’s draft could still be fairly good, especially if Stephen Paea can be healthy and productive.
Meanwhile, what needs can the Bears fill with the 2012 draft?
It’s very early, so these picks will likely evolve over time, but I’ll take a look at some players who project to possibly be available when the Bears pick in the draft.
For the purposes of this exercise, I am assuming the Bears draft just slightly higher than last year in the first round.
It’s a bumpy ride, so hang on.
