The 2023 NFL draft is upon us, where the Chicago Bears will add a new rookie class to their ranks.
General manager Ryan Poles has 10 picks to work with, including four inside the top 64. While Chicago has the ninth overall selection, they don’t pick again until 53rd overall. Still, Poles has a good opportunity to add some impact players who can contribute immediately.
While the Bears will be adding more names to the roster this draft weekend — from draft picks to undrafted free agents — here’s a look at what Chicago’s 53-man roster could look like right now (without the new additions).
