Chase Claypool (WR, CHI): 2023 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~196 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~235 ANALYSIS: The Bears traded the eventual 32nd overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft for Chase Claypool just last year, which (hopefully) hints at a larger vision for the versatile threat.
