Take the best player available? Greatest area of need? Maybe a trade down? Bears GM Ryan Poles is going to have some intriguing options at No. 9, Hub Arkush writes.
Day 1 of the 2023 NFL Draft is finally here. As of this writing, the Bears are still picking ninth, so it's time to identify the three most likely scenarios on how things will play out for general manager Ryan Poles.
Since all 32 NFL teams' draft boards and rankings are different, it is safe to assume there will be at least one blue player -- if not more -- still available when at No. 9, and the Bears' ideal scenario will be to get a blue in the first round and two reds in the second. by signing up you agree to our terms of service 9. OT Paris Johnson Jr.If the Bears use the ninth pick, we can say with some certainty it won't be on a quarterback or wide receiver. That eliminates Young, Richardson and Johnston. As impressed as I am with Smith, he's just not big enough to take the third-best edge rusher at No. 9. I also really like Porter, but I can't see the third-best cornerback going at No. 9. Anderson and Wilson just aren't going to last that long.
If you have been following my draft work, you know I am adamant that when rebuilding an entire team you must draft the best available prospect regardless of position with every pick. That is whom I have the Bears choosing from in Option 1.
