The Chicago Bears find themselves in the top 10 yet again this upcoming draft. With a million directions the team can go in the first round, here are some names to keep an eye on.<\/p>\n
Note: This list is not in order<\/em><\/p>\n As the consensus top offensive lineman in this year’s draft, Will Campbell should be high on the Bears’ draft board. With his experience, power, size, and tenacity, he has the potential to be a cornerstone of Chicago’s offensive line for years to come.<\/p>\n Read More: PFF Lists Bears QB Caleb Williams’ Ideal Bodyguard in the NFL Draft<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n The Lombardi Award winner<\/a> for the top offensive lineman in college football, Kelvin Banks Jr.<\/a> has all the traits of becoming an elite tackle in the NFL. With left tackle being a premium position in the NFL, don’t count the Bears out on drafting Banks despite having Braxton Jones.<\/p>\n Drafting a running back this early may be a controversial move, but Ashton Jeanty is being labeled a “generational talent”<\/a> by many analysts. His explosiveness and playmaking ability could add an exciting new dimension to the Bears’ backfield.<\/p>\n If Chicago wants the best pure interior offensive lineman in the draft, Tyler Booker is the guy. A dominant run blocker and natural leader, Booker has solidified himself as a first-round talent.<\/p>\n Read More: PFF Lists Ideal Day One or Day Two Draft Prospect for the Bears<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n At 6’3″, Armand Membou may be shorter than the prototypical lineman, but he has the technique and athleticism to excel in the NFL. The Bears might have plans of starting him at right guard but either way, Membou offers the team an upgrade on the offensive line.<\/p>\n If not for a season-ending injury, Josh Simmons<\/a> would likely be a lock for the top 10. Despite the setback, he possesses the quickness, hand placement, and awareness to neutralize elite pass rushers.<\/p>\n If the Bears want a mammoth of a man at left tackle who possesses the mechanics and explosiveness, Aireontae Ersery is the guy. At 6’6″ and 330 pounds, his quickness and versatility make him an intriguing option for the Bears in the first round.<\/p>\n Read More: Intriguing Dark Horse Prospect for the Bears in Round One<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n It wasn’t too long ago Walter Nolen was projected in the second round.<\/a> Now, with talks of him going in round one with an impressive Senior Bowl performance, Nolen could be the future next to Gervon Dexter Sr. in the middle of the Bears’ defensive line.<\/p>\n The talk of the NFL Draft, Mike Green<\/a> shined during the Senior Bowl and proved that despite being a little underweight, he is one of the top pass rushers in this year’s draft.<\/p>\n10 Options for the Bears at Pick 10 in the Draft<\/h2>\n
