Prior to reaching the one year milestone as Chicago Bears general manager, Ryan Poles received one of the league\u2019s most coveted assets: the #1 overall pick in the <\/span>NFL Draft<\/span><\/a>. And before he could call the shots in the second Bears draft of his tenure, Poles did something only 12 other GMs have dared to do since 1967 by trading it away.<\/span><\/p>\n

His haul? A new weapon for Justin Fields at wide receiver in DJ Moore, two first round picks, and two second round picks. One first this year, one next, one second this year, and one in 2025. *<\/span>cha-ching*<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

The 2023 NFL Draft takes place in less than one week, and when it\u2019s over, the Bears could have 10 new players to compete for roster spots. Then again, if we\u2019ve come to expect anything from this new front office, we could end up with even more picks somewhere along the way.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

No one will know for sure exactly what Ryan Poles and the rest of the team have planned for draft night. But, it doesn\u2019t hurt to take a look at some options, and it all starts in round one!<\/span><\/p>\n
