The Bears will have the following overall picks, 87th, 126th, 162nd, 222nd and the 238th. The true, hardcore draftniks are fired up to look for those diamond in the rough prospects. Considering how successful Bears’ general manager Ryan Pace has done in the later rounds, that adds to the fun in trying to figure out which late round prospect he and his scouts could have their eyes on.
