Who will the Chicago Bears land in the 2017 NFL Draft? Find out one strong scenario in this complete seven-round 2017 NFL mock draft.

At this point, the 2017 NFL Draft is probably the next relevant event for the Chicago Bears. They have struggled mightily through 2016, and their 3-11 record probably has the Bears wishing that the season was already over. However, there are still two weeks to be played.

This is an opportunity to see the young Bears to compete and try to determine whether they will help this team going forward. That being said, in the grand scheme of things, these last two games do not matter. In fact, the Bears are probably better off losing and cementing their 2017 NFL Draft position.

Things have not been great on the field in Chicago, but there is a lot to like about this roster. General manager Ryan Pace has done a very nice job of putting together a young and intriguing roster that is being built primarily through the draft. It remains to be seen whether Pace can turn the Bears around, but I strongly believe that they are heading in the right direction.

The 2017 NFL Draft will be a great opportunity for the Bears to continue to assemble talent for their rebuild. If they can land a couple of productive players at key positions, the Bears could turn their fortunes around quickly.

Check out a possible draft scenario for the Bears in this complete seven-round 2017 NFL Mock Draft.
