It’s Draft Week, Chicago Bears fans, and we have you completely covered with all of the information and analysis you will need going forward.

Ryan Poles and the Bears have done a remarkable job overhauling this roster over the past year or so, but the work has only begun.

For fans wondering just where the Bears are picking throughout the weekend, we’ve got them all right here for you.

Ryan Poles and the Bears enter the draft with a total of nine picks in the 2023 NFL Draft

Round 1: Number 9 (via CAR)

Round 2: Number 53 (via PIT)

Round 2: Number 61 (via CAR, via 49ers)

Round 3:  Number 64 (own)

Round 4: Number 103 (own)

Round 4: Number 133 (via PHI)

Round 5: Number 136 (own)

Round 5: Number 148 (via BAL, via NE)

Round 7: Number 218

Round 7: Number 258 (compensatory)

Now, just because the Bears enter with nine picks doesn’t mean they will necessarily end the weekend with nine.

There is a strong likelihood that Poles makes multiple moves. That could include moving up, of course, but most Bears fans would also bet on the fact that he moves back at least once, in order to stockpile more picks.

Last year, the Bears ended the weekend with 11 total draft selections after Poles continued to wheel and deal.

Chicago enters the draft with a few key needs, some of which they will more than likely address in the first couple of rounds. There are no more important needs, though, than continuing to build the trenches. The Bears need to add talent to both the offensive and defensive lines.

One of the more polarizing names to watch in the first round will be Georgia defensive tackle Jalen Carter, whose stock has seemingly fallen over the last month or so, specifically because of an off-field incident he was involved in.

This could be a case where a lot of that so-called “worry” is smoke, or he very well could fall quite a bit. If he does, then Poles could find himself in a trade-up scenario in the first round.

From there, a trade back in the coming two days would be much more likely in order to recoup some capital.

Whatever Poles and the Bears end up doing, the weekend should be plenty exciting. We’re so close, Bears fans.
