According to mock drafts, these are the five positions that will be addressed?

GrindingTheMocks.com is an interesting tool that combines all mock draft data and finds averages for where players typically get drafted, and what teams are tied to specific players or positions. We do not know how accurate mock drafts are yet, but compiling all of the data will show us a better understanding of who has the most accurate mocks. This will help with the Chicago Bears, who do not pick until 43rd overall.

Using this tool, we looked into the top five positions that are being mocked to the Chicago Bears in round two the most often. These are the players that the experts and media know of and have tied to Chicago for one reason or another. It also can show us which needs the Bears have.

5. Linebacker

Linebackers Mocked Most Often: Terrell Lewis, Curtis Weaver, Josh Uche, Malik Harrison

A quick look into the names of the players mocked to the Bears most often tells you what type of players they are looking at. Lewis and Weaver would both play outside linebacker. Uche is a bit of a tweener, but would mostly be an outside linebacker.

Malik Harrison is an inside linebacker and is a great athlete who would provide run-stuffing and special teams ability. Still, after signing Danny Trevathan, it is tough to say they would draft inside linebacker that early.

As for the outside linebackers, it is likely a lot of these mocks were compiled before the Bears swapped out Leonard Floyd for Robert Quinn. Making that move changed the Bears long and short term plans at the position.

So, while these are names to keep in mind, there is a reason this is the least mocked position to Chicago.
