Alright Chicago Bears fans, we here at Bear Goggles On are going to play a little game. This is going to be a new series that we go through between now and the 2022 NFL Draft. Hell, maybe we get a couple in after the first round too, knowing who is going to be there in the second round, assuming Ryan Poles is not going to trade up into the first.
This will be a fun game to compare two players. Now, these players may not always be considered of equal value. We will have some hypotheticals that look specifically at only one pick in the draft. We will have others that look at multiple picks in the draft, or possibly include a trade-up or back within the 2022 NFL Draft.
For the first of the series, we will focus only on one draft pick in the upcoming draft — pick No. 39 overall. We will assume that Ryan Poles is not going to trade up into the first round or even higher up in the second round. There are a few players I would consider moving up for, but the draft would have to fall in a way that leaves little to be desired come pick No. 39.
Now, as the title states, we are going to consider two different wide receivers in this first of the “would you rather” series. Some of you may believe one or both of these receivers will not be available. Others may think it’s better to trade back and take someone else or think one of these two may be available at the Chicago Bears’ second of their second-round picks — pick No. 48. If you have ever played “would you rather,” you will know that these are not options of the game.
Alright, let us get this started.
