Unveiling our projections for next NFL season: Eight things you need to know

The ESPN Football Power Index projections are live. Here's how our model believes the 2022 season will play out, from Super Bowl champ predictions to close division races.

Chicago on the clock​

We've got a brutally close race for the favorite to be the No. 1 pick in the 2023 draft, but the Bears edged out the Jets for the honor.

ESPN's FPI is down on Justin Fields after a pretty brutal rookie season in which he finished with the worst QBR among qualifying quarterbacks in the league. Edge rusher Khalil Mack and receiver Allen Robinson II are both gone, and while there are still a few good players remaining in the defensive front -- including edge rusher Robert Quinn and linebacker Roquan Smith -- there isn't a whole lot other strengths on the Bears' roster.

Per FPI ratings, the Bears have a 14% chance to pick first next April, followed by the Jets (14%), Texans (11%), Jaguars (9%) and Falcons (9%).

Why does the media hate the Bearz?

 

[jive]

The Eastern Sports Propaganda Network dissing the Bears?!?!?! How can that be?!?!?

Next thing you know, they will also be overestimating the Giants.

 

[ZOMBIE@CTESPN]

As bad as I think they are I can’t see worse in the league

 

[PeppersSweater]

Assuming he doesn’t get killed, I think Justin Fields can win just enough games with his legs to prevent us from picking #1.

 

[Hawkeye OG]

Is the #1 pick something you win?

lol I can't wait to spin it that way if it happens.

Yes. #winning

Bears have not had the #1pick since 1947, which is 12 years after Ommypants was born.

Can you imagine the uproar when the Bears screw up the first pick in the draft. Monumental.

The Bears aren't that good at top 10 picks outside of Roquan and Urlacher in the last couple decades. Trubisky, Floyd, White, Benson, Haynes/Grossman, and Enis. I sure hope we don't get the number one pick.

Haynes & Grossman weren't top 10picks. But you could say the Bears absolutely suck in the 1st round.

If they get it and take Carter, I'm perfectly fine with that.

They weren't but, the Bears had the #4 pick and traded down to take those 2.

 

[Omeletpants]

Hey hamburgers, Bears have worst talent in nfl and according to Poles we are not in a rebuild/ LOLOLOLO

 

[JesusHalasChrist]

Here's what they did last time-

And with the first overall pick, the Chicago Bears chose...

It has been almost seventy years since the Bears have had a first overall pick. In 1946 they finished with a record of 8-2-1, ultimately defeating the New York Giants, 24-14, in Sid Luckman's 4th national championship. The pick order for the 1947 draft was set similarly to how it is today...

Uh oh!

 

[pseudonym]

How bad would our record have to be? 4-13? Worse? They'd probably trade back. Unless there is an elite LT.

Oh ye of little faith

Trade down for mucho picknero.

Don't see it though. 50/50 were in the top 10 and I personally take the over.

The top qb coming out in next years draft is Ohio States very own CJ Stroud.

Will the Bears make that pick?

hmmmm
