The fact he even got drafted after getting a DUI right before the draft shows how little NFL teams care about character at this point
Yes but they have consistently given fans a million examples of this over the years so its a given at this point, not a surprise.

Not what the bears need. The bears need pass rushers. The Bears do play the run well.
They need both realistically. The Bears started taking Gervon off the field on run downs last year and he now has to play 80%? of snaps since they didnt really replace Jones.

And people still be saying “we had the top 5 defense last year in the final games so we are good” but don’t realize Jones was a big part of that. Sweat is really good. But Jones made him even better. Even Dexter to spell Jones helped because it was a good rotation. But now it’s just Dexter. Billings is there but not the same as Dexter or Jones.

But I will say you can’t go wrong with these two options. You just have to have these 2 at all times.

You either need one good edge and one good DT on your D-line and the other two spots average. Or 2 good edges and average DT and NT. They both can be had and made to work.

Walker might be the 3T if the Bears don’t get a DT.
