We'll see how the draft goes, but I certainly think the Bears can compete in '23.

Bears were competitive in a lot of games last season losing a few be just a couple points and a few more by 1 score.  Adding 3 pro-bowl quality players (Moore, Edmunds, Jackson) and upgrades with Nate Davis, Billings and Walker.  Foreman could be an upgrade over Montgomery.  But that's 6 or 7 new starters right there.

The draft could add 2 or 3 more starters.  Big question is can the Bears significantly upgrade the front 4.   That could be difficult with the draft  but free agency is not over...not by a long shot.

But having said all that - its all going to depend on Fields.  He has to get better...a lot better.   

I don't predict game or season but I'd guess this team could be closer to .500.
