sure, when you've got a qb and much of your offense on rookie deals and your #1 WR and TE are signed to reasonable contracts, why not?

C’mon dawg, you know this. NYG’s BIG BOARD might have Nabers rated as a can’t pass up.

@BaBaBlacksheep you know how there’s this perception that “you can’t draft Ohio State QBs?” Well I’m not sure you can pass up LSU WRs.

I think the obvious choice at DE will be AJ Epenesa. Still young. Former 2nd round pick. Had 6.5 sacks each of last two seasons. This year only played 36% of downs. 80 grade on PFF. And our new defensive coordinator was his position coach in Buffalo. Perfect fit.

Why settle for a mediocre player( maybe because the Bears have been mediocre-or worse- forever) when they can draft a potentially great player in Latu, Verse or Turner?

They need more than one DE. Obviously
Signing one guy isn’t going to keep them from drafting someone

If we're drafting a QB and Hunter is basically all of our defensive spending this off-season then I think it makes a lot of sense. You then shift the money you're paying Walker much more to the 3T spot to address that and giving the offense nightmares about having to leave one of Sweat or Hunter singled up on a play to play basis.

Illinois native as well - I think he’s a really good complement to Demarcus Walker as a rotational pass rush guy/maybe starter splitting time with a round 1-3 draft pick DE.

He's from the St Louis metro, not really local.
I agree that he could be a target, though. Nice fit.

Hunter and Sweet are roughly the same age. This is an awesome bookend. This is ideal if drafting a young DE later in the draft.

Wouldn’t complain but a 3T is more critical to how Flus defense works.
