Final top 50 draft predictions from NBCSports

[Lake Shore Drive]

It's set up in the always annoying slideshow format, so our two picks don't even appear until slides 54, and 63, respectively.

NFL Mock Draft 2020: Final projections for first 50 picks

So for those who don't want to bother checking each prediction before reaching ours, here are the two Bears that have been selected:

43. Chicago: Grant Delpit, S, LSU

Deon Bush is a playable safety, but that shouldn’t stop the Bears from wanting more. Delpit is one of the best safeties in this year’s class, winning the Jim Thorpe award in 2019 (though he was much better the year prior.) He’s a hard hitter who can play up in the box without sacrificing coverage responsibilities, freeing Eddie Jackson up to go back to his ideal positioning.

50. Chicago: Jalen Hurts, QB, Oklahoma

Hurts is a much better passer than he gets credit for. There are fair concerns about his ability to process and anticipate throws, but he plays with extreme confidence and elevates the players around him. Hurts can play quarterback at the next level and would be in a great spot learning from Nick Foles in Matt Nagy’s offense.

Like Delpit. Will be annoyed if they draft Hurts with that second pick doe

I would love Delpit, though.

I wouldn't complain about a safety with our first pick, especially if he turns out to be a stud. I doubt Pace would look to invest one of our 2nds in one though considering how much money we've got into Jackson and the needs elsewhere. Spriggs/Ifedi isn't enough to say that O line still isn't a need. Having only Graham/Harris/Holtz at TE means that TE is a need. I like the WR room but it's lacking top line speed.

Rather than spending a 2nd rounder on a project QB, i'd rather grab the next Tom Brady in the 6th.

Hurts ??

Spotting accuracy anything medium and long which just leads to Hurt just checking the ball down or just taking off to run. Basically another Trubisky, I’ll pass
