Chicago Bears 2021 Season: Staff predictions, breakouts and more

Category One: Standout Offensive Player

Allen Robinson (1) – Anish Puligilla

"Why Anish picked Allen Robinson:  Allen Robinson is entering a contract year on the franchise tag in 2021 and he’s been the lone bright spot on a poor offense during the Nagy era. Whether or not Dalton or Fields throws him the ball this season, it will be the best quarterback he has EVER played with – expect big things from Robinson in 2021. – Anish"

Darnell Mooney (2) – Jordan Campbell, Vinnie Parise

"Why Jordan and Vinnie picked Darnell Mooney: While all eyes are going to be on rookie quarterback Justin Fields, the standout offensive player for the Bears this season is going to be wide receiver Darnell Mooney. Mooney is entering the season as the Bears’ WR2 and expect him to take off  – Jordan The Chicago Bears are going to struggle offensively as it is. Having Darnell Mooney should take some pressure off of Allen Robinson and allow the QB to make some big plays from time to time – Vinnie"

Damiere Byrd (1) – Ryan Taylor

"Why Ryan picked Damiere Byrd: Damiere Byrd is my hot take to be a standout player in the offense this season. Byrd is in the prime of his career, evident of the upward trend in his statistics. He showed out in a rushing offense with the New England Patriots last season, catching 47 balls for 604 yards and one touchdown in the passing game. He’s a guy that can run 4.25 in the 40, and will soon enough have a quarterback that can accurately throw downfield with Justin Fields. – Ryan Taylor"

David Montgomery (1) – Ryan Heckman

"Why Ryan picked David Montgomery: The easy pick is Justin Fields. But, the entire football world seemed to forget David Montgomery finished as the league’s fifth-leading rusher on last year’s sorry offensive team. Montgomery is going to top last year’s production and truly burst onto the scene in 2021.  – Ryan Heckman"
