Chicago Bears: 4 Options to replace Allen Robinson in 2021
By Joseph Herff
Kenny Golladay, Detroit Lions
How good would it be if the Bears stole division rival Kenny Golladay from the Detroit Lions? Golladay, after entering the league as a third-rounder in 2017, has consistently dominated at the NFL level. After struggling to get on the field as a rookie, he took over in 2018 tallying over 1,000 receiving yards and five touchdowns. He took the next step in 2019 catching 65 passes on 116 targets for 1,190 yards (18.3 yards/reception) and 11 touchdowns earning himself a spot in the Pro Bowl.
With Golladay’s size, he is a complete mismatch on the outside. Standing at 6′ 4″ and weighing over 210 lbs give Golladay the size on every corner that matches up against him. He wins 50/50 balls constantly and dominates corners in only his third year in the league.
Along with Fuller, Golladay is in the conversation for being an elite wide receiver. He may be ready to take the next step and will likely be demanding a hefty contract as he is only 27-years-old and has shown he is a dominant wide receiver.

Additionally, Golladay is from Chicago and played his ball at Northern Illinois. It would be nice to bring the big man home to be our new star wide receiver.
