A couple of college players I would like to see the Bears draft.  I live in Florida and am a UF alumni.  My daughter currently attends FSU, son UCF.  I watch a lot of Florida college football.

Ricky Pearsall WR UF.  Not the biggest, not the fastest.  Great hands, not afraid to take a hit.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qH6Px6HNLcQ 

Most people familiar with his one handed highlight catch.  However watch how many misplaced passes by Mertz that he catches.  Many time the ball thrown way behind him, but he still makes the grab.

I have seen him in mocks go 3-4th round.  Personally would spend a third round pick on him.  He is money and will make whoever is playing QB look good.

Speaking of QB's I am amazed there is not more buzz about Jordan Travis out of FSU.  Guy is a winner.  Yes he was surrounded by great skill players but FSU went IMO favorites to win National Championship to stink when he went down with injury.  If that does not show value of a QB, not sure what would.

I have seen most draft projections in round 4.  Now he is coming off a broken leg but I really think whoever takes Jordan in 4th round or later (if he truly last that long) is going to get a steal.

The buzz around Caleb Williams is he creates much like Mahommes.  Extends plays, etc.  Well I think Jordan Travis has done that better than anyone the last two season of college football. 

These are two guys that I would take 3rd and 4th round, if they are there.
