Chicago Bears: Five players to consider at 43rd overall

When the Chicago Bears are on the clock with the 43rd overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, what are five prospects they need to strongly consider?

With the 2020 NFL Draft just weeks away, the Chicago Bears will have two picks in the second-round at 43rd and 50th overall. This means that general manager Ryan Pace, who could very well be in his final NFL Draft with the Bears will have an opportunity to add some impact players.

Right off the bat, there are a few positions that we can eliminate. First, the Bears won’t be drafting a quarterback, middle linebacker, tight end or edge rusher.  Each of these four needs were addressed via free agency by signing guys like Robert Quinn and Jimmy Graham, trading for Nick Foles, and then retaining Danny Trevathan.

However, the positions that the Bears could target include wide receiver, strong safety, interior offensive line, and running back. When looking at each of the positions, the Bears have solid starters at wide receiver and running back but could use an infusion of talent at interior offensive line and strong safety.

Keep in mind that there are a few things that the Bears could do that 43rd overall. First, they could select an offensive player which would mean that it’d either be a wide receiver or offensive lineman. Or, if the Bears go with defense first, then they’d likely trade back at 50th overall or select either an offensive lineman or wide receiver, depending on how the draft board falls.

With the 2020 NFL Draft just approaching quickly, what are some players that the Bears need to consider at 43rd overall? Let’s examine some names and find out why the Bears should select each of the following players listed.
