Strange: The Unusual Offseason For Chicago Bears Fans

It’s just strange, the 2019 offseason. Right Chicago Bears fans?

At the end of August in 2018, there one one thing I was sure of regarding the future of the Chicago Bears... the 2019 draft would be all about a first round edge-rusher, the one big hole on the Bears team.

Then Jon Gruden happened, and somehow the Bears ended up with Khalil Mack and no 2019 first round draft pick (plus swapping a 2020 first for a second round).

Mack came in and everybody knows what happened. Suffice to say from the moment Khalil walked in the door at Halas Hall, edge rusher was no longer a priority.
