The Chicago Bears know they need to build around Justin Fields in order to seriously compete. One major way to do that is by investing in help at wide receiver in the upcoming NFL Draft.

Many think Chicago could opt to reunite Fields with former Ohio State teammate Chris Olave, and the latter is certainly campaigning for that to happen.

Olave said it would be "huge" to join forces with Fields once again. This isn't the first time Olave has shared that sentiment, either, so it's clear he's excited at the idea.

This duo found plenty of success together when they were teammates on the Buckeyes. Olave recorded a combine 98 receptions, 1,569 yards and 19 TDs from 2019-2020 with Fields as his QB.

Getting Fields a top receiver to go along with Darnell Mooney is incredibly important this offseason following the departure of Allen Robinson in free agency. Chicago may have to move up in the draft if they're to nab Olave, though, given they don't own a pick in the first round.

The Bears' first selection at No. 39 still puts the team in great position to grab a pass-catcher who can make an immediate impact given this deep wideout class.
