BearFan PHX Posted March 20, 2017 Report Share Posted March 20, 2017 Pace said it: "Ryan Pace mentioned that the Bears were in “sub” defensive packages 60 percent of the time last season, meaning NOT in their preferred 3-4 scheme. That was happening very early last season when players noted the Green Bay Packers going to nickel personnel on offense, forcing the Bears to react with nickel defensive personnel" http://www.csnchicago.com/chicago-bears/nf...ars-plans-no-11 So he didn't mean 4-3, he meant 4 man front, which is true. We don't have 4 LBs on the field even half the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right, and it means there is a place for a 4-3 type DE player on the roster too. I think we have a lot of options in the draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixote Posted March 21, 2017 Report Share Posted March 21, 2017 Just turned on NFL Network and one of the guys on the show was projecting Solomon Thomas going #2 to San Francisco. I say this only in that it surprises me how much this guy is gaining speed in the pre-draft process. Now, it seems instead of the majority of the sites predicting the Bears picking DL Jonathan Adams they are predicting Safety Jamal Adams as our selection. I see this as a strong draft for many of our needs so I am still hoping for a trade back, getting some additional picks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The more I read on Adams the more I think he'd also be a great addition to the team. Decent cover skills, solid hitter and tackler and great field general. Similar to Brown without the injury history? http://www.nfl.com/draft/2017/profiles/jam...dams?id=2557979 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than Garrett, who won't be there at #3, I still don't see the player who teams will trade up for. For every player we're talking about there is a counterpart right behind them that is a very good consolation prize and they'll get to keep their 2nd Rd pick. Adams/Hooker Allen/Thomas Foster/Reddick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killakrzydav Posted March 21, 2017 Report Share Posted March 21, 2017 Teams will be moving for Fournette. That's our only hope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
