Ryan Poles has told Chicago Bears nation recently that he refuses to feel rattled, even though the pressure continues to mount on the shoulders of the first-year general manager. The 2022 NFL Draft is now just over a week away, and it’s nearly “go time” for Poles in his first-ever opportunity to make magic happen in Chicago. Last year, we saw the Bears trade up for quarterback Justin Fields. While the elation knew no end after the Fields pick, the Bears now sit in a reality of lesser draft capital for this year’s draft. Drafting Fields was absolutely the right decision, but this year is now that much more important for the current situation. The Bears are amidst a rebuild, and Poles has taken the slow and steady approach. Although it’s an understandable approach, some fans are a little uneasy about the lack of free agent talent added in Poles’ first offseason so far.
