The Chicago Bears are 16 days away from the NFL Draft and have been adamant that they will draft the best player available when they select at pick 25.

And what if Arizona State WR Jordyn Tyson were to slip to the Bears? We welcome the founder of ‘Best Available’ Tyler Brooke to the show to break down some possibilities to fit the Bears’ needs. And, have the Bears become the example for Chicago sports teams on how to build a front office and coaching staff? Join Mark Carman, Greg Braggs Jr. and Adam Hoge on the CHGO Bears Podcast.

With the NFL Draft just 2.5 weeks away, we look ahead to possible draft scenarios, including the Chicago Bears trading UP to get their EDGE. If Rueben Bain or Keldric Faulk slip into the teens, the Bears have the draft capital to get their guy. Plus, could Tyreek Hill actually be a plausible pickup for the Bears like the betting markets indicate? And if RB Jadarian Price is available in the 2nd round, would Ryan Poles consider pulling the trigger? Greg Braggs Jr. reveals the top-4 on his big board, including two different Safety prospects. And, we have more stadium news; this time from Adam Schefter. Could we FINALLY have a decision in the next three weeks? Join Adam Hoge, Mark Carman and Greg Braggs Jr. on the CHGO Bears Podcast.
