Brad Biggs loves traveling to the Senior Bowl, much like when a short American goes to Japan and has a sense of being tall, Brad feels almost skinny in Alabama.
So true. I loved my trips to Japan. I’m 5’9” and I felt like a pro basketball player over there.

Dawand Jones is probably the best OSU T coming out. He or Darnell Wright would be great additions at RT. I worry bears won't be interested as they target smaller more agile OL though. If they can get an early 2nd, that feels like the range both of these guys go in.

Jones may move to round 1 by the draft. Rare OLman that's not a LT and worth it.

Pretty much every Iowa State game I've ever watched, Hutchinson gave the other team a fit. He's an interesting one for the Bears, especially if after the first two rounds they haven't taken a WR.

Also, this Jayden Reed guy looks like a player I want. The Bears need that type of route running.
Yeah man, these two and Marvin Mims are the guys I feel we can hit it out of the ballpark with. I really like them.

The other guy I’m now very high on is Benton out of Wisconsin. He was already the best run stopping DT in the draft, but now he’s showing he can pass rush! I think his limited pass rush came more from the Wisconsin scheme. Getting Benton in the 2nd would be a coup.

My dudes from the Senior Bowl:
— Benton, DT
— Hutchinson and Reed WR
— White, DT
— the OL from Syracuse is my top OL followed by Mauch for our scheme.

What’s cool for the Bears is there are guys flashing at positions of serious need.

Schmitz the Center from Minnesota was drawing raves from NFL radio about his ability and attitude. This guy loves football. He will kill his interviews and he’s an excellent football player.

Jones (RT) OSU looked fantastic yesterday and stoned everyone that lined up against him.
He moves incredibly well for being one of the largest humans playing the game. I want this guy on the Bears.

Mauch (G) from SDST was another guy opening eyes with his play and attitude.

Dell (WR) Houston and Reed (WR) MSU were putting on a route running clinic. Wicks (WR) Virginia displayed burst and athleticism. He had serious production at UVA but definitely had an issue with concentration drops.

Schmitz is from Homewood Flossmoor, big Sox fan.

Agree on Jones, think he will go mid first.

Dell is just so small, I mentioned last week that he's one of the most fun guys to watch film on, but he weighs 163. There just is no real precedent for a guy that size having success and health in the last 20 years.

Keeanu Benton was really impressive yesterday too.

Jones shouldn't have that much bend, right? Wrong, he is absolutely more than a chunk of stone to be moved around. He has some punch.

I want this team to grab OL in the 2nd, 3rd and 4th rounds. There is too much talent to not walk away with guys you've already seen go to work with the goal to one day start.

Getsy should be very confident in a few OL talents and I for one am ecstatic

Good call on Benton. He flashed yesterday too.
He definitely falls into the need category for the Bears as well.

Imagine how intimidating Jenkins and Jones could be on the right side especially if they get a real center so Jenkins doesn’t have to clean up for Mustipher.

I can't wait for Fields to only need to take two steps to the right to avoid pressure instead of run all over the backfield.

I would be surprised if Bears target Jones. Doesnt really fit an outside zone scheme and would be concerned if he can maintain an appropriate weight.

Hes certainly a mountain of a man. I think he's going to be a significantly better Orlando Brown Jr. But yeah unfortunately he really doesn't fit the scheme. I think he's going to be incredible in pass protection which bears could use.
