Last year Pace was extremely secretive of what he was going to do in the draft. He set a secret dinner up with Trubisky, and he really shocked all the pundits when he not only traded up a spot, but he traded up for MT10.
This year it has been well documented that the Bears have set multiple meetings with the top DB’s, and it is also known that they had dinner with top edge rusher Bradley Chubb, and also top WR Calvin Ridley. Q Nelson has been strongly linked to Chicago as well but that may be more so because of Heistand.
The question for me is who is Pace’s guy? It wouldn’t seem to be his style to be so obvious and open to having all these workouts with top DB’s only to have one of them be his guy at 8.
Is Pace just blowing smoke so that a team like the 9ers don’t try to jump the bears considering they have similar needs at edge rusher or DB? Davenport screams ‘Pace pick’ to me and I haven’t heard any connection between them yet. Maybe I’m just projecting here because Davenport is my guy, but it seems to me there is a good chance he could be Pace’s guy as well.
