The Chicago Bears have caught a lot of grief<\/a> over the pass catchers, or lack thereof, that they have provided second-year quarterback, Justin Fields<\/a>. So much so that they are being urged to rescue one high-priced wide receiver from a situation that just hasn\u2019t worked out in Kenny Golladay<\/a> of the New York Giants.<\/span><\/p>\n

Third-year wideout Darnell Mooney<\/a> is poised to take another step forward following the first 1000-yard campaign of his young career.<\/span><\/p>\n

But there is little behind him in the way of proven production. Byron Pringle<\/a> is projected to be the second option on the outside. But he has fewer than 900 yards in his three-year career while fellow free-agent acquisition, Equanimeous St. Brown<\/a> has fewer than 600 yards.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Delivering the Goods<\/span><\/h3>\n

The suggestion that Bears general manager, Ryan Poles<\/a>, target Golladay comes <\/span>via Bleacher Report\u2019s Ian Wharton<\/span><\/a> who bases much of his argument on the future. Chicago is slated to be one of the most cap-rich teams in the NFL after being strapped the last two offseasons. They will also have their first-round pick for the first time in two years.<\/span><\/p>\n

Their last first-round pick was Fields adding another layer of significance to his development at the game\u2019s most important position.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201c<\/span>No team has more cap room over the 2023 and 2024 seasons than the Chicago Bears. This team is ripe for an upside swing on a talented but expensive player who didn’t work out elsewhere. The best marriage between fit, team need, and an expendable player is wide receiver, Kenny Golladay.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
