Offensive targets for the Chicago Bears in the later rounds of the 2020 NFL Draft.

The Chicago Bears find themselves in an extremely tough spot in the 2020 NFL Draft. First of all, they don’t have a first-round selection. Obviously, having Khalil Mack on the roster helps soften that blow, but not having an ability to land one of the premier prospects in the 2020 NFL Draft class hurts the Bears’ chances to improve this offseason.

While the Bears do not have a first-round pick, they do hold two selections in the second round, No. 43 and No. 50 overall. Unfortunately, the Bears do not go on the clock again until the fifth round. Chicago does have seven selections in the 2020 NFL Draft, but all of them but those two second-round picks are set to come on Day 3.

Simply put, if general manager Ryan Pace and company expect to perform well in the upcoming draft, they are going to have to dig deep into the class and find some late-round gems to bring into the mix.

We are going to focus on the later-rounds of the 2020 NFL Draft in this post, specifically offensive targets for the Chicago Bears. Their defensive unit undoubtedly needs some work as well, but there are many offensive prospects who stood out to me as specific fits for this team. Also, with five picks on Day 3, the Bears will have plenty of opportunities to land at least one or two of these prospects.

Without further ado, let’s dig into the list. Here are five offensive prospects who the Chicago Bears should target late in the 2020 NFL Draft.
