Taylor Gabriel: C

When he was healthy, Taylor Gabriel was the clear-cut WR2 in Matt Nagy’s offense, although he wasn’t particularly effective outside of his Week 3 performance against the Washington Redskins. Gabriel scored three of his four touchdowns last season in that game and had a season-high 75 yards. He did get his fair-share of targets and catches when he was on the field, but they didn’t amount to much when it came to overall offensive production.

While he was, Gabriel would have benefited from someone liker Miller stepping up earlier, as the veteran doesn’t seem suited to be the second passing option in an NFL offense, but rather the third or fourth. Gabriel missed the final five games of the season as he dealt with his second concussion of the year. We may have seen the last of #18 in a Bears uniform as the team can cut Gabriel and his remaining two years and only incur a $2 million cap hit.
