2. Isaiah Crowell

If the Chicago Bears are looking for a compliment to Tarik Cohen, Isaiah Crowell has to come to mind as an option. Crowell is a player who has gone from a tough situation to another tough situation with the Cleveland Browns and New York Jets. Still, in small doses, he gives you enough combination of power and speed that you want to give him another chance.

Crowell is the perfect compliment to Cohen because he is a contrast stylistically. He is bigger, more physically imposing back and could at the very least help in handling goal-line duties.

Crowell could look at his past two teams and look at a winner in Chicago and want to be a part of that. He could accept the idea that Tarik Cohen and a draft pick are going to split reps with him in the backfield and could come on a cheap deal that gives the Bears power and depth.
