Ranking Chicago Bears 2019 roster: 45-41
42. Elliot Fry, 41. Eddy Pineiro
As it should, the two kickers are lumped together. Many give the slight edge to Eddy Pineiro, likely because the team went out and acquired him via trade after Fry has been on the roster.
However, they did acquire Fry first, and more familiar with his game. Could Piniero just be the player who is going to keep Fry on his toes during camp? Nonetheless, the two have to check in near each other.
Finding the exact placing of these two was arguably the hardest ranking of the list. To start, we have not seen either kick in an NFL game. On top of that, they both have a 50% chance to make the roster, but a 50% shot to also never ben heard from again.

Lastly, the question comes down to how valuable are they? The kicker who wins the competition is going to pretty important to the Bears success. We all watched last season. So, they cannot be too high, considering one, the other, or even both may get cut. But putting them too low is disrespectful to how valuable the position has been to Chicago. Hopefully, this sorts itself out, and one of the two climbs the list.
