CBS Sports has ranked every roster in the NFL...
Quotes from CBS Cody Benjamin.
Training camp is just around the corner in the NFL, and then comes the 2022 season. Plenty of teams have been busy this offseason, spending big to upgrade their lineups. Others have been more focused on rebuilding, tearing things down with the hopes of a brighter future. But which clubs boast the best all-around talent entering the hottest days of summer?
Here is the ranking:
As you can see, the Bears are ranked fairly low...
Here is what he had to say about the Bears:
If team brass is really "all in" on Justin Fields at QB, it's not acting like it, saddling the former first-rounder with a still-shaky line and thin receiving corps. David Montgomery and Khalil Herbert give them a solid backfield, and Darnell Mooney offers legit speed, but all of those guys are better suited for complementary roles. Under new coach Matt Eberflus, a defensive mind, it'll be a minor miracle if Fields grows in confidence and decision-making while working around such a mediocre offensive supporting cast.
The "D" is a slightly different story, with Eberflus possessing both proven vets (Roquan Smith, Robert Quinn, Al-Quadin Muhammad) and likable rookies (Kyler Gordon, Jaquan Brisker), perhaps retaining Chicago's signature stinginess. In today's NFL, however, a defense that might be good is far from enough to remain competitive, let alone contend for big games.
