Good morning Bears’ fans! We keep trudging through the most boring part of the sports calendar, but there are still plenty of Chicago Bears stories to follow. Check out our latest installment of Bear Dawn for Thursday June 25th, your one stop shop for all the latest Chicago Bears news and notes from the internet.
CSN Chicago’s Moon Mullin thinks the Bears offensive line needs time together after injuries caused a lot of shuffling along the line during the offseason program:
"Quarterback, running back, wide receiver and tight end are set for at least the beginning of camp, pending wideout Kevin White’s expected elevation to the No. 1 offense. But the offensive line has yet to practice together in what is a clear No. 1 unit and that cannot be the case by the time the Bears get into the preseason games at Indianapolis and Cincinnati."
In his latest Chicago Bears mailbag, Brad Biggs touches on another possibility for the offensive line – recently released guard Evan Mathis. Based on what you read from Biggs, it’s not likely the Bears land Mathis.

Chicago Football will be hosting a live Bears chat at Noon CDT today. Head over to see what they’re yakking about. They’re also asking you to vote for the 20 most important Chicago Bears for the 2015 season. Only the top 20? Why not the top 53? How about you narrow it down to the Top 5 or 10 guys?
Da Bears Beat wisely reminds us to be wary of the preseason hype some players get.
John Fox reflected on his first offseason as Chicago Bears head coach:
"“I think we’ve made progress. We’re by no means there yet. We’ve made a lot of changes, upstairs, downstairs, throughout the building. I think the guys have responded well. Guys have bought in and worked hard and that’s all I can ask.”"
In the latest of the Meet the Rookies series, the Bears profile top draft pick Kevin White and his unique journey to the NFL.
Our friends from SideLion Report ranked offensive skill positions in the NFC North. The Bears ranked fairly highly returning mostly the same players, so why did they have such a bad offense?
