Though the math says otherwise, the Bears are practically out of the playoff race for the 2021 season. A 4-8 record and a lack of momentum heading into the end of the year makes a second consecutive postseason appearance highly unlikely. With that in mind, now seems like as good of a time as any for another Bears mock draft. There are a handful of positions that stand out as potential needs for the Bears going forward, and given their lack of draft capital, it seems unlikely they’ll be able to address all of them in the 2022 NFL Draft. That doesn’t mean they won’t have plenty of talented prospects to choose from when it’s their turn to pick, though.
