NASHVILLE, TN - The 2019 NFL Draft is finally here, Chicago Bears fans. It’s perhaps the most exciting three days of the year for many teams, particularly last year’s worst performers. Scouts, executives and coaches try to find the next Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers and Odell Beckham Jr. in college and plug any glaring holes on the team.

This year, the Chicago Bears will draft in the 87th spot in the third round. It will be team's first pick in the draft. The team had previously traded away both their first and second round draft picks. The draft began on Thursday night in Nashville, Tennessee when the Arizona Cardinals selected Oklahoma University quarterback Kyler Murray with the first overall pick.
