It only took one quarter for Kiran Amegadjie to make Ryan Poles look awful in Week 15

All eyes were on Ryan Poles' 2024 draft class during the first quarter of the Chicago Bears' Week 15 game against the Minnesota Vikings.

Caleb Williams remains the Bears' starting quarterback despite the team's offensive line failing to prove they are capable of protecting the most important player on the team's roster. Further proof of that fact was on display in the first quarter of Monday's game when rookie left tackle Kiran Amegadjie nearly got Williams' head taken off.

After starting left tackle Braxton Jones reported a concussion during the team's walkthrough practice on Sunday, Amegadjie was in line to get the start. Monday marked the first start of the rookie tackle's career and it could not have gone any worse.

To be fair, the blame doesn't fully land with the Yale product.

For the blame, one must look to Bears' general manager Ryan Poles. Over his years as general manager of the Bears, two offensive linemen that Poles couldn't wait to get in the door at Halas Hall were Ryan Bates and Nate Davis.

Poles originally attempted to sign Bates during his first offseason as the Bears' general manager but the Bills matched his offer sheet in free agency. Despite it looking like the Bills were going to cut Bates this offseason, Poles offered up a fifth-round pick in a trade. Bates has struggled to stay healthy this season and when he has been on the field, he's been a turnstile.

Davis, quite literally, was more known for what he wasn't doing than anything he did on the football field during his time with the Bears. Poles was reportedly warned about bringing in Davis but decided to race out ahead of the market in 2023 to sign the veteran. Davis signed a three-year deal with the Bears prior to the 2023 season but was cut earlier this year.

But hey, at least Amegadjie is proving that Poles' poor talent evaluation for offensive linemen extends to the draft.
