3. Kyler Gordon will finish second on the Chicago Bears in sacks 

Some Chicago Bears fans may not have thought this was too crazy when Jaquan Brisker led the team in sacks a couple of seasons ago. Still, it is not often you see that from a defensive back, and you would think that the Bears would have done something different by now. 

Still, while the Bears have Montez Sweat, there is a real question of who will be the second-highest sack leader for the team, and how many sacks it will take to get there. Kyler Gordon is certainly a player who could rack up a couple of sacks as well. 

Some of this is on the Bears pass rush, a lot of this is on Gordon. Gordon appears to be in for a monster season.

He can be a weapon blitzing off of the edge, and now that he is in his second season as a full-time slot, the team can really start to dig into how to use him. The Bears can blitz him off of the edge more and with his speed and instincts, it would not be a surprise if he had a sack explosion.
