Chicago Bears: Five players to consider at 50th overall

With the Chicago Bears having two second-round picks in the 2020 NFL Draft, what are five players to consider at 50th overall?

Here’s the deal: In a loaded draft class, despite not having a first-round pick, the Chicago Bears are still lucky to have two second-round picks. And in what is considered to be a deep draft class, the Bears will have their options of what position to address.

Here’s what we know: Don’t rule anything out when it comes to the 50th overall pick. There are a number of prospects who could be available that could interest the Bears. Additionally, the Bears have needs at positions such as tight end, right guard, and cornerback. Then there are positions such as quarterback and wide receiver, which are not major needs for the Bears but depending on how the board falls, they could add someone to the position.

It’s also very possible that the Bears decide to trade back with the 50th overall pick. Doing so would allow for the Bears to still remain in the second round but then also get a third or fourth-round draft pick in the process.

If the Bears do decide to trade back at 50th overall, it would mean that their draft board would be different depending on how far back they’ve traded. Since the second round ends with the 64th overall pick, the Bears can only trade back 14 spots unless they hope to move into the third round.

As the 2020 NFL Draft gets closer, what are five players that the Bears should consider with the 50th overall pick? Why should the Bears consider these players and what are the strengths and weaknesses of each prospect? Let’s break it all down.
