Updating the Chicago Bears’ three biggest (pre-draft) needs

The Chicago Bears haven’t had the exciting off-season everyone hoped, but one could argue that’s all by design. After all, they did a lot of their heavy lifting last year, revamping their offense, re-signing key players and trading for Khalil Mack.

Now, it’s time to fill in a few holes on what very well could be a championship-level roster in 2019.

The aforementioned moves helped reduce the number of roster issues dramatically, of course. Plus, the Bears just re-signed veteran outside linebacker Aaron Lynch for insurance behind Mack and Leonard Floyd.

They also offset their key off-season departures (running back Jordan Howard, strong safety Adrian Amos and nickel corner Bryce Callahan) with a few bargain free agency signings.
