The Bears will focus quality over quantity in this week’s NFL draft.

With four draft selections, they have the fewest picks in franchise history. They had five picks four times: in 2019, 2017, 2011 and 2010.

The team’s four selections — No. 1 and No. 9 overall in Round 1, No. 75 in Round 3 and No. 122 in Round 4 — are the fewest in the NFL this year. In second place: the Browns, Dolphins and Giants, who have six apiece.

Amazingly, the Bears have traded away more 2024 draft picks then they own.
