Ranking best Bears top-10 draft picks

Last Thursday night Leonard Floyd became the 17th player the Bears have selected with a top-10 pick in the NFL Draft in the Super Bowl era. Here's my ranking of the top 10:

(1) Walter Payton, RB (4th overall in 1975)

There's no question that Sweetness deserves to be at the top of the list. He played 13 illustrious seasons with the Bears, setting 16 NFL records and 27 team marks. Payton was voted to nine Pro Bowls, retired as the league's all-time leading rusher with 16,726 yards and missed only one game during his entire career.
