The Bears are taking one approach with quarterback Justin Fields but Andy Dalton went through his learning stage much differently and offers an opposing viewpoint.

So much is left to the imagination and blind faith of Bears fans, it would appear, as the players report for camp and here are the questions completely unaddressed by the team.

The signing of tight end Jesse James can benefit the Bears on offense because teams always need depth but it might not be the ideal move for them at this time.

The Bears thought they had speed with Marquise Goodwin and Damiere Byrd but have found other qualities that can become apparent now after the departure of Anthony Miller in a trade with Houston.

Former Lions and Steelers tight end Jesse James has agreed to a contract with the Bears according to a Chicago Tribune report, and it could give them a third proven player at the position.

From Justin Fields to Andy Dalton to Khalil Mack, here are all of the projections for the Chicago Bears from BearDigest.com for the 2021 season, updated since the trade of Anthony Miller.

Neither running back Tarik Cohen nor rookie receiver Dazz Newsome will be able to practice at the outset of training camp after the Bears put both on the physically unable to perform list.

Analysis: Where the Bears organization stands, what put them here and where they could be headed as players are set to report for training camp.

The Bears got one decent season from Anthony Miller and seven rookie TD receptions but the move they made to deal away a future second-round pick came back to bite them just as it often has done when GM Ryan Pace has traded away the future.

The Bears spent a future second-round pick and a fourth-round pick to move up and select wide receiver Anthony Miller in the 2018 draft and now have discarded him for a late-round pick.

Although the offense gets much of the attention for the Bears, it's their defense where actual starting positions are up for grabs and eyes should be trained on the way the secondary functions at training camp.

Training camp can be a three-ring circus but there are five key Bears who can go a long way toward determining where the offense will eventually get and it's best to focus on them.

Plenty of Bears are on the hot seat, starting with the coach and GM and including several players in the final years of their contracts.

Minor and major injury issues lingering from the end of offseason work will be addressed by the Bears when camp begins, including the status of running back Tarik Cohen.

Training camp gives the Bears a good chance to assess where some of their conversion projects are at, including 2020 fifth-round pick Trevis Gipson after he switched from a down lineman to a standup edge linebacker as a rookie.

Dissatisfaction and frustration would seem likely to go hand in hand with an NFL free agent being hit by the franchise tag but is this necessarily an indicator for fantasy owners Allen Robinson's production could plummet?
