The Chicago Bears have selected a quarterback in the first round six times in the common draft era (since 1967) with lackluster results that have kept the franchise in a perennial search for a long-term answer.
Those six quarterbacks combined for zero selections to the All-Pro teams (first or second team) and only two Pro Bowls while in Chicago. The Bears are the only NFL franchise that has not had a quarterback throw for 4,000 yards or 30 touchdowns in a season. Chicago hopes its luck will change on Thursday when the team is expected to select USC’s Caleb Williams with the No. 1 pick. Before Williams officially makes his way to Chicago, here’s a look at how other first-round Bears quarterbacks have fared during their time in the Windy City.
