Bears’ Obscure ‘Analytics’ Graph Is Getting Absolutely Roasted by NFL Fans

The Bears have become an offseason internet meme. 

As most of these types of things go, it was entirely unintentional. Here’s how it happened.

The Chicago social media team put out a video describing the team’s process of trading the No. 1 pick in this year’s draft.

And of course, here are some of the best reactions to Chicago’s analytics evaluations…or lack thereof.
