Best Case, Worst Case: Prince Amukamara

What is the best possible outcome for Prince Amukamara in 2017 and what his worst possible outcome?

As we get ready for the 2017 Bears season, it is a good time to look at the ceiling and floor of every player currently on the Bears roster. Of course, career ending injury is the absolute floor, but we will try to keep it to an on the field scenario. Also, this is the most reasonable ceiling to be set, Mitchell Trubisky is not going to be Super Bowl MVP, MVP and Rookie of the Year this season. With that all said, this edition will look at cornerback Prince Amukamara.

Best Case:

Amukamara is able to play in all 16 games for the first time since 2013. He flashes as a versatile weapon in the Bears secondary who can play inside and outside depending on the matchup. Amukamara sets a career high in interceptions with four, and finds his way onto the Pro Bowl team. After some heated discussions about his value, and what he is worth coming off of his career high season, the Bears extend Amukamara on a two-year deal, giving him a chance to cash in again in two years when he is 31.

Worst Case:

The injury bug hits. He spends most o f his time in training camp on the sideline and does not participate in any preseason games. Still, he says he is ready for week one. The Bears start Amukamara in week one and he looks like a player out of game shape. A few weeks into the season it becomes apparent he will have to stay in the slot if he wants to see the field. Halfway through the season Amukamara is forced to miss some time with an injury, and winds up playing 12 games, and being outplayed by Crevon LeBlanc, and Marcus Cooper over the course of the season. The Bears do not even offer Amukamara a contract in theoffseason, as he waits even deeper into summer to find himself a contract in 2018.
