Leading up to the 2020 NFL Draft, the Chicago Bears have had to do things a bit differently. Still, they’ve managed to meet with some strong prospects.

Whether we’re talking about life before COVID-19 or after, the Chicago Bears have had to adjust their offseason plans in a few different ways for the upcoming draft. To begin with, general manager Ryan Pace was looking at a draft without picks in the first and third rounds.

After the Nick Foles acquisition, though, he was looking at a draft without a pick in the fourth round as well. Chicago is certainly limited in picks, but like every other NFL team at the moment, they are also limited in how they conduct their pre-draft work.

Teams are now having to schedule meetings via video chat — most often, FaceTime — with 2020 NFL Draft prospects. It’s a different world we’re living in, but it’s even across the board. Every team now has to have a different approach. No in-person meetings from here on out — and actually for the past few weeks, for that matter.

Regardless of the league’s circumstances, the draft will go on as planned. It will be much, much different than what fans have been accustomed to over the years. But, it’s happening — thank God, it’s happening.

For the Bears, they will likely be doing their work on plenty of prospects, first-round grade through seventh-round grade. Pace loves to make moves, remember. Don’t be surprised if he trades up or trades back.

Which prospects, though, has the team met with up to this point? That number is quite large, but there are just a handful in particular who would look real good in navy and orange. Let’s dive deeper into five key prospects the Bears have met with in one way or another.
