Bears' Darnell Wright: Goes 10th overall to Chicago
The Chicago Bears selected Darnell Wright in the first round of the 2023 NFL draft, 10th overall.While Wright might not be able to line up at left tackle in all schemes -- his modest reach (33 and 3/4-inch arms) being the main concern -- the former Tennessee standout should be fine at right tackle at the very least. While his reach isn't ideal for a tackle, Wright is a memorably massive lineman (6-foot-5, 333 pounds) with exceptional athleticism (5.01-second 40-yard dash, 114-inch broad jump). Wright should improve the Bears offensive line in some meaningful way, even as a rookie.
