15 Most Impactful Bears of 2022: No. 5 Ryan Poles

GM Ryan Poles set up the Bears for success in 2023. He’s our No. 5 Most Impactful Bear of 2022.

The Chicago Bears wrapped their 2022 season, where they finished 3-14 and lost their final 10 games of the year. But the future is bright heading into this 2023 offseason, as GM Ryan Poles has the No. 1 pick in the NFL draft, a boatload of salary cap space ($118 million) and a franchise quarterback in Justin Fields.

Over the next few weeks, we’ll be counting down our 15 Most Impactful Bears for the 2022 season. We’ll recap their 2022 season and look ahead to how they factor into 2023.

Kicking off the top five is none other than Poles himself, who tore the whole roster down and set Chicago up for success looking ahead to 2023.
