The Chicago Bears need to address tight end in the NFL Draft, even if it isn't with Penn State's Tyler Warren in the first round.

If Ryan Poles is going to take a running back with the 10th pick in the NFL Draft, it has to be Ashton Jeanty from Boise State.
North Carolina running back Omarion Hampton visited the Chicago Bears on Monday, but he doesn't belong in the mix unless the team trades down.

The best case scenario for the Chicago Bears in the NFL Draft is that all of their top targets are still on the board when Ryan Poles is on the clock with the 10th pick.
It's not unrealistic, and it would be a good problem to have. Plus, we check in on Caleb Williams' latest comments to Esquire Magazine about his rookie season and Matt Eberflus.

The worst case scenario for the Chicago Bears in the NFL Draft is that all of their top targets are off of the board before the 10th pick and no one wants to trade up.
The good news is, Ryan Poles will still be able to land a solid player in the first round, even if its not the ideal player or the preferred spot to draft them.

The betting win total for the Chicago Bears this season was set at over/under 8.5 wins on Fanduel. Expectations for Ben Johnson's first season are rising even higher.
Finishing under .500 might feel like a disappointment, but we also shouldn't expect the team to push double-digit wins and take the NFC North in year one.

The Chicago Bears' plans in the NFL Draft could get thrown off by who the New England Patriots take with the 4th overall pick and what team drafts Colorado QB Shadeur Sanders.
Plus, the draft has a number of polarizing prospects that could go as high as the Top 10 or fall into the 20s and shape who could be available for Ryan Poles at No. 10.
