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%).

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

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

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

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.

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

Trade down for mucho picknero.

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