2. LT- Teven Jenkins, LG- James Daniels, C- Cody Whitehair, RG- Larry Borom, RT- Germain Ifedi

Plenty of scouting reports have Borom shifting inside to guard in the NFL. His feet would not be tested with inside counters nearly as much. Even if his future is at left tackle, it is easier to get a rookie on the field at guard than it is at tackle. Borom could spend a year at right guard while he adjusts to the NFL and gets lean.

Then, in 2022 he could find himself competing at right tackle. Either way, the Bears could once again be able to get two rookies on the field in week one which would be a huge win. Getting the fifth-rounder in a more suitable role could make the transition easier.

Still, this is another combination that could easily play out, but with Whitehair at guard, Daniels at center, and Wilkinson at right tackle. Still, having Whitehair next to Borom helps as much as Jenkins in this scenario. Either way, you could look at it.

Jenkins, Whitehair, Daniels, Borom, Wilkinson in week one from left to right is possible for the Chicago Bears.
