After the 2007 Super Bowl hangover, Chicago Bears General Manager, Jerry Angelo and Head Coach, Lovie Smith had some pretty significant areas to address. Aside from running back, those areas were pretty much ignored as most of the front office believed that injuries were primarily to blame.

The short list of areas to address last year:

Quarterback

Running back (thank God for Matt Forte)

Wide Receiver

Offensive Line

Defensive Line

Safety

 

One year later the Bears are two games better in the win column, yet failed to make the playoffs for the second consecutive year after reaching the Super Bowl following the 2006 campaign.

The short list of areas to address this year:

Quarterback

Wide Receiver

Offensive Line

Defensive Line

Safety
