The Chicago Bears strike gold in this seven-round 2017 NFL Mock Draft.

Who will the Chicago Bears select with the third overall pick in the 2017 NFL Draft? Will they find a franchise quarterback to groom behind Mike Glennon? Who will be the next late-round sleeper like Jordan Howard last season? These questions will be answered soon, as we can officially say that the 2017 NFL Draft is later this month.

We are in the home stretch. Teams are doing their final evaluations on players as they set up private meetings, getting to know the talent on a personal basis. The Chicago Bears have been aggressive in setting up meetings and have the draft capital to greatly improve the makeup of their roster.

Ryan Pace has done a nice job in the draft the past couple of years, particularly hitting on his picks in 2016. First round pick Leonard Floyd has a ton of upside going forward and second-round pick Cody Whitehair appears primed to be a center-point of their offensive line for years. Also, snagging Jordan Howard in the fifth round proved to be an absolutely massive steal.

The 2016 rookies are an impressive group of players who the Chicago Bears can build their team around. If Pace can hit like that in the 2017 NFL Draft, the Bears could find themselves turning around their fortunes quickly.

Let’s look at a possible seven-round scenario for the Chicago Bears with this complete 2017 NFL mock draft.
