Chicago Bears Roster Ranking: 45-41
44. Sherrick McManis
Sherrick McManis is now entering his seventh season with the Chicago Bears. We know exactly what he is. Still, there is a reason that he is going to stand around in the 40s as far as most valued players, and likely has for the past six seasons.
Sherrick McManis is a special teamer. That is the extent to what he provides to the Chicago Bears. He is an excellent special teamer at that. One of the better in the league, and a captain of the team because of it.
However, the team has made sure to keep enough defensive backs on the roster that it would have to be a doomsday scenario for Sherrick McManis to see the field on defense.
The Bears will likely keep five cornerbacks ahead of him. They may even sign a cornerback off of the practice squad to stick in ahead of him if tough times were to come. They do not want him on the field on defense.
His reliability and special teams value push him up this high on the list. The fact that he is a liability on defense pushes him down this low overall.
