if anybody with a first round grade at any position except maybe edge rusher is available when the Bears pick, they need to seriously consider that player.

They need an edge rusher too.

Montgomery needs a hole and they do not have any hole makers on that O-line. And Cohen is too small to run inside. They need a back I think. For all of the criticism(well deserved BTW) of our passing game, our running game SUCKED a lot last year.

All valid points, but none of this is to blame on Montgomery.

Not sure if this is doable, but the idea is appealing:

I do not think that Montgomery is a good all purpose back. HE just lacks speed and the ability to cut back.

One of the toughest and nastiest players in the NFL. I would do it, it'd at least give them an edge.

My thoughts when I first read the article. He has been in decline for a few years now, but I don't think it would hurt to sign him to a 1 year deal and bring him into camp.

Pace is waiting for someone else to sign him so he can trade a draft pick for him.

The Bears have been relatively aggressive in free agency (and the trade market) this offseason with the additions of Jimmy Graham, Robert Quinn and Nick Foles, and while the veteran acquisitions are expected to improve the 2020 Bears, they haven't moved the needle nearly enough in the post-free agency NFL Power Rankings on NFL.com.

In fact, Chicago dropped five spots and into the bottom tier of the league.

No. 22: Chicago Bears (previous: No. 17)

The Bears did what everyone expected, bringing in a veteran name brand to compete with Mitch (Pro Bowl QB) Trubisky. That veteran is Nick Foles, the former Super Bowl MVP who endured a nightmarish (but very lucrative) one-season stint with the Jaguars. (Pro Bowl QB) Trubisky will likely enter training camp as the presumed starter, but holding off Foles will be much more difficult than fending off Chase Daniel was a year ago. Put it this way: There's a very good chance Foles ends up starting more games next year than the former first-round pick hypothetically ahead of him on the depth chart. The Robert Quinn signing was ... fine. The move to bring in 33-year-old Jimmy Graham, who did next to nothing with Aaron Rodgers throwing him spirals, makes you wonder if GM Ryan Pace will ever figure out the tight end position.

If there's any good news, it's that the Bears aren't the lowest-ranked team from the NFC North. That distinction belongs to the Lions, who check-in at No. 28.

The Packers remain the class of the division at No. 5, while the Vikings rank 14th.

All for trolling Bears fans but that is just a BRUTAL power rankings. The Jets are better than the Bears? In what universe?

I've been as down on the Bears, Pace, Nagy as anyone, but yeah.....power ranking the Jets higher? that's nonsense

_________________

Yeah I'm not sure the Jets are better than the Lions even.

Jets have got to be the odds-on favourites for first overall pick in the 2021 draft, at least until Watson gets himself out of Houston.

The Bears suck, but they dont suck that much.

Half of the league is better than us, half of the league is worse than us.

Writing an off season power ranking before the end of the draft is an act of futility.

A good front office uses the draft and free agency in conjunction with one another. Then, of course, veterans get cut and signed cheaply after the draft.

I have no hope for the draft. They will draft a corner and runningback with the second round picks.

They will trade the second round pick to re-acquire Kikwiatkoski

Ah you are probably on the right track. They will trade both the seconds for a late first then draft a cornerback with that pick.

So you're saying Nas is a Packers fan! Now his horrible Bears takes all make perfect sense.

Even Ellen knows Mitch sucks and Pace is in way over his head.

I do not see any way in the world they draft a RB in the 2nd round.

They have to use one of those to draft OL. I would love to see them trade down and maybe pick up a 3rd.

But I don't have a lot of faith in that.

I'm guessing they go WR-Secondary with the 2nd rounders and an OL later with their mindset being the new coach will improve their guys.
