Chicago Bears: 7 wide receiver prospects team has met with

The Chicago Bears will undoubtedly be on the hunt for wide receiver help in the 2018 NFL Draft. Check out some key names they have met with and how they’d fit.

Heading into the 2018 NFL Draft, Ryan Pace has a few areas of concern. The Chicago Bears definitely need to add depth at a couple of positions, including linebacker and offensive line. But, one position that didn’t seem to be as much of an issue a couple weeks ago is now an area of need.

After letting Cameron Meredith walk, the Bears have a gaping hole at wide receiver. Meredith was going to be their number two guy on the depth chart, assuming he returned. But, now that position is up for grabs.

Fortunately, Pace has been doing his homework on this year’s receiver class. There are tons of interesting options that might fit in real well with Matt Nagy’s offense. The only question is, how early are the Bears willing to take a wideout. With that, who will end up falling a little bit?

If Pace can get himself a great value at receiver, I would bet he does it. However, with the need as big as it is now after Meredith’s departure, I could also see him finding “his guy” and drafting him when he deems appropriate.

The Bears have met with several wideouts up to this point, but here I am going to highlight seven of them. I’ll give you a bit of background, some key stats and how they each performed at the combine last month.

Without further adieu, let’s begin.
