7/01/25 | A case of right position and wrong Bears pick in ESPN mock draft. The Bears got their man in the one-round mock draft ESPN posted from draft analyst Matt Miller, as they took Notre Dame running back Jeremiyah Love 18th overall. The need for an every down back more physical than D'Andre Swift could be a priority for the Bears by the time they draft again next year and Love is rated by Pro Football Focus, ESPN and many others as best in this draft.

6/28/25 | What Bears can gain by waiting or by trading for a running back. Most of the whining about an unaddressed need at running back for the Bears focuses on how they need a better main ball carrier than D'Andre Swift to execute Ben Johnson's offense. It wouldn't hurt having the experienced depth, however, considering Roschon Johnson has 136 carries in two seasons, Travis Homer 89 in six seasons and no other back has carried the ball in the NFL. This is why the name of Jamaal Williams comes up so often for the Bears. Source: https://www.si.com/nfl/bears/what-bears-can-gain-b... |
6/11/25 | Why Chicago Bears backfield situation looks more cemented than ever. Without even actually moving, Bears running back D'Andre Swift continued to run toward the goal line like a broken-field runner dodging tacklers. The signing by Denver of Chargers free agent running back J.K. Dobbins probably removes the last real starting quality back from the group of remaining free agents. The best remaining unsigned backs are probably Cam Akers and Jamaal Williams. Williams is 30 years old while Akers has averaged only 100 carries a year in the NFL over five seasons is in New Orleans this week as a minicamp participant on a tryout basis.

6/09/25 | How a reunion with Ben Johnson could benefit Chicago Bears' D'Andre Swift. Bears running back D'Andre Swift didn't mince words when he reflected on his first season with the team last year. “A lot of stuff didn't end how I wanted to, selfishly for me, how I played,” Swift said at last week's mandatory minicamp. Swift's assessment was fair after the Bears struggled to gain much consistent rushing productivity last season. Swift himself failed to find consistency in his first season after the Bears signed him to a three-year contract in the offseason. Source: https://www.shawlocal.com/bears/2025/06/09/how-a-r... |
