The Chicago Bears likely need to add a couple of wide receivers to their roster this offseason.

With Allen Robinson almost certainly on his way out of Chicago, it leaves Darnell Mooney, who is entering his third season in the NFL, as the Bears' only starting-caliber wide receiver.

If Chicago wants quarterback Justin Fields to improve in 2022, then they need to provide him with more weapons in the passing game.

Now, the Bears aren't looking to compete for a championship in 2022 — that much was evidenced by their decision to trade star pass rusher Khalil Mack to the Los Angeles Chargers to save money in 2023 and 2024 (Chicago is only saving $6.15 million in 2022).

But even if the Bears aren't trying to overtake Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers in the NFC North this season, they still want to put a good product on the field. Winning is the name of the game in the NFL. And you never know, maybe the Bears will find themselves in a Cincinnati Bengals-like position in 2022 and make a run at a Super Bowl.

The Bears should sign two starting wide receivers this offseason

I think the Bears would be wise to pursue Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper in a trade (that would need to happen before March 20, when Cooper is expected to be released). This would be a nice long-term weapon for Fields and would give Chicago a nice one-two punch at wide receiver along with Mooney.

The Bears, however, still need a third option — one that's budget-friendly.

I think Will Fuller would be a great (and cheap) option for the Bears.

I know, I can practically hear everyone reading this already talking about Fuller's injury history. And you're right — he's hurt a lot. He's never played a full season in the NFL.

But when he's on the field, he has elite, game-changing speed.

And that would play well to Fields' skill set.

In 2021, Fields' deep passing saw the highest improvement in the NFL from completion percentage to accuracy percentage. His improvement was significantly better than any other quarterback in the league.

So why not give Fields an elite vertical threat?

Even the Bears only get 10 games out of Fuller, it would be worth it. Fuller is projected by Pro Football Focus to get a one-year deal worth $10 million. I'd honestly be surprised if he gets that much after missing almost all of last season with a broken thumb.

With the Bears in a rebuilding year, they need a couple of cheap one-year options for Fields that won't cost the franchise financial flexibility in the coming years. Fuller is an option that fits.

It may not be glamorous, but it would be a smart move for the Bears to make this offseason.
