Buzz around Bears rookie tight end Colston Loveland is reaching a fever pitch

1 week ago | beargoggleson.com | Brad Berreman

The hype train for Colston Loveland is picking up some pre-training camp steam. The Chicago Bears went against the grain of pre-draft predictions when they took Michigan tight end Colston Loveland No, 10 overall. That said, new head coach Ben Johnson's offense has room for plenty of players to contribute and two-tight end sets with Cole Kmet are firmly in play. The sheer investment of draft capital means Loveland will have an immediate role.
Fantasy analyst suggests Roschon Johnson has been vastly underutilized

The new coaching staff should be able to fix this. Over two seasons since the Chicago Bears took him in the fourth round of the 2023 NFL Draft, Roschon Johnson has 136 carries for 502 yards and eight touchdowns. That's not what those who saw him as an underrated running back prospect coming into the league envisioned, and not being able to unseat D'onta Foreman and Khalil Herbert as a rookie stood as a red flag.
There’s one major concern that could hold the Bears promising offense back

1 week ago | beargoggleson.com | Jaleel Grandberry

The Chicago Bears have invested a lot into their offense, but analysts believe the unit still has a flaw that could limit the team’s ceiling. It seems like Chicago Bears fans convince themselves every offseason that this is the year things get turned around, but 2025 really should be the year things start to improve for the better— at least offensively.
Fantasy analyst provides incredibly optimistic view of D'Andre Swift for 2025

1 week ago | beargoggleson.com | Brad Berreman

D'Andre Swift seems to be in line for positive correction in one area this year, but that notion can be questioned. News of D'Andre Swift's contract with the Chicago Bears came so early in the "legal tampering window" of 2024 free agency that it had to be all but done before negotiations were permitted to start. So they clearly wanted him, and it's fair to assume a three-year, $24 million deal (the years as much as the money) was the best he could've gotten by some margin.
Training camp could get painful fast if the Bears don’t settle this first

1 week ago | beargoggleson.com | Ryan Heckman

This is nothing earth-shattering. In fact, it's been a lingering issue for a while now. Even after the Chicago Bears traded for Montez Sweat, the defensive end position has been at the top of fans' wish list. And now, the depth chart still looks lackluster beyond Sweat. This is an issue that could create a pain point that goes beyond simple fan worry at training camp. The Bears need help in the pass rush department, point-blank period.
Bears' all-time do-over is just as painful now as it was then

1 week ago | beargoggleson.com | Ryan Heckman

If you were to ask Chicago Bears fans the most pain they have felt over the course of their lifetime, chances are, you wouldn't have the necessary time to sit and listen to the countless stories. But, one of them sticks out above all the rest and certainly counts on the long list of "what ifs" or "do-overs" the Bears wish they could have back: the Rex Grossman pick-six back in Super Bowl XLI.
Pressure on Caleb Williams keeps growing after PFF's "make-or-break" list reveal

1 week ago | beargoggleson.com | Mike Luciano

While there is tons of hype surrounding the Chicago Bears this season as new head coach Ben Johnson comes in to help take quarterback Caleb Williams to the next level, things could just as easily blow up in this franchise's face. Even if Williams improves upon what was already a solid rookie season, some fans might be upset if the Johnson era begins with another last place finish in the NFC North. Despite Williams' youth, the heat is already on for the former No. 1 overall pick.
Bears still being urged to do something every fan could've told you

1 week ago | beargoggleson.com | Ryan Heckman

We have now entered into the portion of the Chicago Bears offseason when fans are going to be longing for those training camp highlights of Caleb Williams going deep to DJ Moore and Rome Odunze. But, in the coming month or so before camp begins, there are still moves to be made. And, there is one in particular the Bears are being urged to make, to no one's surprise.
Bears rookie's path to immediate significant playing time continues to be paved

1 week ago | beargoggleson.com | Brad Berreman

Big training camp for the rookie. As April's draft approached, the Chicago Bears were easily in the market for a running back. Head coach Ben Johnson's history with No. 1 back D'Andre Swift, when the Detroit Lions could not rely on him to be a workhorse, made the addition of a young running back a practical guarantee.
Bears could make a sneaky training camp upgrade with one more signing

1 week ago | beargoggleson.com | Mike Luciano

No one can accuse the Chicago Bears of sitting on the sidelines this offseason, as the hiring of Ben Johnson as head coach was supplemented by remaking the offensive line after trading for Jonah Jackson and Joe Thuney. However, the Bears did focus more heavily on one side of the ball this offseason. Chicago's defense, which was always respectable in the Matt Eberflus era, lost a few pieces.
