The Chicago Bears are sitting at 3-10 through the first 14 weeks of the 2022 NFL season, where things have been rocky in the first season under Ryan Poles and Matt Eberflus.
But that was to be expected. This season is all about development, including quarterback Justin Fields, who has emerged as one of the league’s most exciting young players. So while the Bears will finish with one of the worst records, they’ve already won this season.
With just four games left to be played, we’re winding down on the 2022 season and looking ahead to a busy 2023 offseason. That includes the NFL draft, where Chicago is trending toward a top-3 draft pick to address an important need.
If the season were to end today, the Bears would hold the No. 3 overall pick in the 2023 NFL draft. Chicago had a bye week, which coupled with the Broncos losing (and their stronger strength of schedule), dropped them from second to third overall.
