Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
NFL Draft Special: Reaction to Bears selecting Oregon safety Dillon Thieneman

I think that's a fair impression, a fair question of things for just where the roster is weighted at the moment.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
NFL Draft Special: Reaction to Bears selecting Oregon safety Dillon Thieneman

It does feel like the roster is weighted more heavily toward the offense between your former number one overall pick at QB, all the first couple of picks and first couple of rounds of the draft, and then even the seventh round pick who was uber productive as a running back from last season.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show

There was a lot of production that the Bears gained in the draft last year on offense, defensively,

Now the hope, and we've been talking about it for a while now, is that they will gain some additional production in this coming draft on defense.

Good friend of mine, Jeff Schwartz, who is of Fox Sports, of SiriusXM.

He was a great player for the Oregon Ducks.

front and back.

He's evaluated his career as well.

Jeff Schwartz is actually going to be with us at the top of this hour with his impressions on what this means.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
NFL Draft Special: Reaction to Bears selecting Oregon safety Dillon Thieneman

Because Jeff Schwartz was an offensive lineman in college and the NFL.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
NFL Draft Special: Reaction to Bears selecting Oregon safety Dillon Thieneman

I was just talking to Schwartz on this station a few weeks back about the Bears offense, the Bears line of scrimmage, where the needs are.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
NFL Draft Special: Reaction to Bears selecting Oregon safety Dillon Thieneman

I wonder how Schwartz will feel as an Oregon alum, but the Bears didn't really show up anything on the line of scrimmage yet.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
NFL Draft Special: Reaction to Bears selecting Oregon safety Dillon Thieneman

And we weren't sure, as we've been talking about it here in Chicago, you joined me on the score just a couple of weeks ago, kind of addressing where the Bears might go with things.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
NFL Draft Special: Reaction to Bears selecting Oregon safety Dillon Thieneman

And the defensive front felt like a really definitive spot that they would need help.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
NFL Draft Special: Reaction to Bears selecting Oregon safety Dillon Thieneman

But kind of where I came down to, and I'm sure I talked to you about it when you were here with me about it, was, man, if.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
NFL Draft Special: Reaction to Bears selecting Oregon safety Dillon Thieneman

Thienemann's there if a safety is available.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
NFL Draft Special: Reaction to Bears selecting Oregon safety Dillon Thieneman

Whether it's Thienemann, frankly, or McNeil-Warren, I would have felt good about either one.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
NFL Draft Special: Reaction to Bears selecting Oregon safety Dillon Thieneman

But Thienemann was the guy that I think certainly suited the Bears.
