Expect The Final 2017 Bears Depth Chart To Look Like This

Offensive Line

1. Charles Leno
2. Josh Sitton
3. Cody Whitehair
4. Kyle Long
5. Bobby Massie
6. Eric Kush
7. Hroniss Grasu
8. Jordan Morgan

The starting five will remain the same for 2016. In its own way that’s a good thing. The familiarity between those men should only create more efficient and effective blocking. It’s the depth behind them where things get interesting. Eric Kush, Hroniss Grasu and Jordan Morgan make up a trio of younger talents who can play multiple interior positions. The sticking point is none of them are good fits for tackle. So who is the Bears swing option in case of injury? That’s easy. In such a case they can move Long to the outside. A position he played in 2015. They would then have three quality options to replace him at guard.
