Since you're our draft guru on the show, on the list of names that we have on the dock, who's the best player?

I would probably say it's between the two safeties and Caden McDonald.

So those safeties, come back to it, those safeties are there, but when you're talking about archetype and upside and the entire profile, I just keep coming back to the thought of Keldrick Falk.

And Jacob Rodriguez, the linebacker from Texas Tech, has been in to see the Bears for a top 30 visit.

He might be a round two guy, but at 25, they might just say, that's our dude.
