Chicago Bears: Predicting the Week 1 depth chart versus the Lions

Our projected offensive depth chart for the Chicago Bears

Alright, now we get into who will be the starters and who will find themselves as backups when it comes to the offense. Obviously we all know the quarterback situation, but Nick Foles knows he needs to be ready to start at a moment’s notice. This is important for the Chicago Bears more than most other team’s backups because Mitch Trubisky could be pulled for bad performances as opposed to just an injury. That is not happening to say, Tom Brady or Russell Wilson.

Quarterback

• Mitch Trubisky – QB1
• Nick Foles – QB2

Running Back

• Tarik Cohen – RB1
• Ryan Nall – RB2
• Cordarrelle Patterson – RB3
• David Montgomery – Groin Injury (If healthy enough to be RB1 or RB2, shift others down)

Wide Receiver

• Allen Robinson – WR1
• Anthony Miller – WR2
• Ted Ginn – WR3
• Riley Ridley – WR4
• Javon Wims – WR5
• Darnell Mooney – WR6

Tight Ends

• Jimmy Graham – TE1
• Demetrius Harris – TE2
• Cole Kmet – TE3
• J.P. Holtz – TE4
• Eric Saubert – TE5

Offensive Line

• Charles Leno – LT
• James Daniels – LG
• Cody Whitehair – C
• Germain Ifedi – RG
• Bobby Massie – RT
• Alex Bars – OT2
• Jason Spriggs – OT3
  (could change if he goes to IR – Insert newcomer Jamon Brown)
• Arlington Hambright – OG2
• Rashaad Coward – OG3

With the offense now locked up, we can look at the defense.
