The one thing that was missing from the Chicago Bears’ offense last season was speed. And general manager Ryan Pace believes that he’s found the guy that’s going to give them just that.
The Bears got a potential steal in Tulane receiver Darnell Mooney in the fifth round with the 173rd overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft. They traded up to snag him in the fifth round, believing that he could be a big contributor to this offense.
Mooney led the Tulane with 48 catches for 713 yards and five touchdowns last season, which is the kind of production that the Bears would certainly love.
Chicago found their speedy receiver in Mooney, who ran a 4.38 40-yard dash at the Scouting Combine, which he insists could be even better. He’s an explosive player that wracks up yards after the catch.
Take a look at what the Bears are getting in Mooney:
