After taking their next franchise quarterback in Caleb Williams with the first overall selection in the 2024 NFL Draft, the Chicago Bears decided to arm Williams with a rookie running mate to help bolster an already impressive arsenal in the selection of former Washington wide receiver Rome Odunze.

With veterans Keenan Allen and D.J. Moore well established as top playmakers in the league, Odunze stands to capitalize in a big way in an offense motivated to throw the football. With teams focusing on shutting down the proven commodities, Odunze should see plenty of single and man coverage, something he thrived in beating during his time with Washington.

Odunze has all the makings of a top tier ‘X’ receiver in the league, and while his production may lag behind the two receivers taken ahead of him due to volume, Odunze should turn plenty of heads during the Bears 2024 season run.

Stat projection: 65 catches, 840 yards, 7 touchdowns
