With the 2024 NFL Draft officially in the books, draft experts and members of the media are looking over the results to figure out which team improved the most by the moves they made.
Although a few teams made some interesting moves, and as a result, there could be some new rookie starting quarterbacks next season, the one team that likely stood out the most is the Chicago Bears.
The Bears had two picks in the top nine and made the best of both of those picks with what seem to be the right moves, with Chicago bringing in a potential superstar at quarterback with Caleb Williams and a stud wide receiver with Rome Odunze.
Chicago didn’t overthink these picks and made the right moves, even though it looked like they were ready to trade No. 9 overall if the right trade package came along, which it obviously didn’t.
Adam Schein of Mad Dog Sports Radio believes the Bears “won” the draft with those two picks at No. 1 and No. 9.
“You can start thinking of big plays, and winning a championship in Chicago. It’s going to happen.” @AdamSchein says the Bears won the NFL Draft by pairing Rome Odunze with Caleb Williams.

Although the Bears look like a much-improved team on paper after the additions of Williams and Odunze, it remains to be seen if these two are the real deal on the NFL level.
As of right now, the NFC North division is looking pretty interesting with an improved Bears team, a proven Detroit Lions squad, and a better-than-expected Green Bay Packers team led by Jordan Love.
