2. Zach Pascal is a winning wide receiver
Fans are not going to think this is a sexy name, but if you have to look at what the Chicago Bears value, and have them as the best fit, it has to be Zach Pascal as a legitimate option. The Philadelphia Eagles have him as their number four wide out, and they love everything he brings.
Again, this is essentially a player who has the Equainemeous St. Brown role but did it a little better. Pascal only played 385 snaps last season, which is a big drop from what he was doing with the Indianapolis Colts. Even more interesting is that he has 194 run-blocking snaps, to 189 routes. They had a pretty specific role for him.
He was obviously a threat, and every once in a while, Pascal would get a target to keep teams honest. However, he was doing the dirty route. Devonta Smith is small and not a run blocker, so it is easy so sub one out, and bring in the closer. Beyond that, he does add on special teams. Without a loaded wide receiver group in free agency, names like Noah Brown, Zach Pascal and Mack Hollins should all be explored because they all do similar things to ESB, but with more success.
