The Chicago Bears are looking to patch some holes up in the 2015 NFL Draft, but which players should they target with each of their draft picks?’
There is a new era of football beginning for the Chicago Bears in 2015, as they have completely overhauled their coaching staff and have moved on from some key players. John Fox, Adam Gase, and Vic Fangio are ready to help take the Bears back to playoff contention after an embarrassing 2014 season that saw them finish at 5-11.

It is going to be a very interesting season to keep an eye on the Bears to say the very least. They traded away star wide receiver Brandon Marshall, and Jay Cutler has had plenty of trade rumors swirling around him this offseason. He will remain their starting quarterback this coming season, but he could very well be playing for his future with the Bears.
Needless to say, the 2015 NFL Draft is something that they will use to fill the cracks in their roster and improve their team all-around.
Chicago still has quite a few holes to fill and while the draft isn’t amazingly deep there are still talented players mixed throughout all seven rounds. If the Bears want to get back into the playoffs, they are going to need to find a few players that can step in and play immediately for them in the draft. That is definitely a good possibility, and it will be very intriguing to see who they end up getting.
All of that being said, who should the Bears target with each of their picks in the 2015 NFL Draft?
