5 causes for concern for Bears in 2020

The Bears are expected to make plenty of moves this offseason. But there are reasons to be cautious about the Bears heading into 2020.

3. Offensive line woes

For all of the money invested in the Bears offensive line, you expect better production. The unit simply needs to play better, especially when it comes to an anemic run game that never stood a chance.

Essentially, the Bears are stuck with what they’ve got in Charles Leno Jr., James Daniels, Cody Whitehair and Bobby Massie, in terms of the salary cap, but they could turn to the NFL Draft for some young talent. Chicago will need to replace the retired Kyle Long at right guard, and there are in-house options, as well as younger prospects in the NFL Draft. But let’s not pretend that will be a magic cure-all for this offensive line.

The Good News? This is the last season where the Bears are strapped by the massive contracts of their tackles. Hopefully Juan Castillo can salvage something.
