Grading Chicago Bears rookies after ten weeks of 2023 season
Chicago Bears Round 3 Zacch Pickens
Zacch Pickens is looking more and more disappointing. He has only gone over 30% of the snap share in two games, and one of them was week two. Against the New Orleans Saints, he played just 17.5% of the snaps and against the Carolina Panthers, he was at 20%. They are two of the four lowest snap totals of his career.
Pickens does have two pressures in the past two weeks, but the Bears are not showing an effort to work him in more.
Zacch Pickens grade: D+
Chicago Bears Round 4 Rochson Johnson
Roschon Johnson has typically been used as a third-down, passing down back. Johnson has 27 pass blocking snaps, whole Khalil Herbert has 16 and D’onta Foreman has 17 Foreman has allowed more pressures on ten fewer snaps than Johnson.
Johnson has been fine but not overly dynamic as a runner. He missed weeks six and seven with a concussion and has been eased back in over recent weeks. Still, with Foreman running strong and Herbert coming back from an injury, he will not get extended work as the year goes on.
Roschon Johnson Grade: C
