2017 grade: D+
Level of need: Medium
Decisions to be made on: Zach Miller (free agent), Dion Sims (contract), Daniel Brown (RFA)
Possible free agent targets: Jimmy Graham, Trey Burton, Ed Dickson, Tyler Eifert, Virgil Green
This position hinges on the evaluations of two players: Dion Sims and Adam Shaheen. How Matt Nagy and Ryan Pace view those two guys will shape what the Bears do at tight end in free agency.
Sims looked like an ascending player when the Bears signed him to a three-year deal last March.
