5 Prospects the Chicago Bears will likely consider at nine after trade with Panthers

Tyree Wilson could end up being available for the Chicago Bears at nine

A player who has risen up draft boards is Tyree Wilson. Wilson is a freak of an athlete and human specimen. He has a huge wingspan and length He stands 6'5" and weighs 270+ pounds. He showed up at the Senior Bowl and performed well enough at the 2023 NFL Combine. With the possibility of three to four quarterbacks coming off the board within the top 10 picks, there is a very good chance that a player like Wilson could fall.

If Tyree Wilson were to be there at nine, Ryan Poles would have to consider selecting him. Wilson is still raw when compared to other defensive line prospects -- giving him an even greater upside. He uses his strength to muscle through blockers and shed blocks. He uses his length and ability to bend to race around the corner and swat at footballs in the quarterback's hands. If the quarterback is weaker, Wilson will even bring them down for a sack with one hand.

The biggest problem I see on tape for Tyree Wilson is his inability to fire off the ball as fast as other prospects. That's something that is not easy to improve and I worry he will struggle at times vs better talent in the NFL. The upside for a player like Wilson is so high though and the Chicago Bears have met with him twice already. He's definitely a player worth taking in the top 10. If he hits his ceiling, he could be one of the best players out of this draft class.
