Best of the Bears: Best strategy for using 25th overall pick in NFL Draft

I would not feel good about that.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show

But look, if they think there's a wide out who they're like, man, God, we love this guy, it would feel so gluttonous.

Best of the Bears: Best strategy for using 25th overall pick in NFL Draft

I don't think, to your description, Alex...

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Best of the Bears: Best strategy for using 25th overall pick in NFL Draft

Probably can't get an elite edge at 25.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Best of the Bears: Best strategy for using 25th overall pick in NFL Draft

Can they get an elite defensive tackle at 25?

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Best of the Bears: Best strategy for using 25th overall pick in NFL Draft

I don't know.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Best of the Bears: Best strategy for using 25th overall pick in NFL Draft

I think they can get an elite safety because of the way the position is valued.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Best of the Bears: Best strategy for using 25th overall pick in NFL Draft

You're going to be looking at one of the very best safeties at 25.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Best of the Bears: Best strategy for using 25th overall pick in NFL Draft

Yeah, to your point about the edge class, there's a lot of specialists here.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Best of the Bears: Best strategy for using 25th overall pick in NFL Draft

You either have pure pass rushers who struggle against the run, or guys who are good against the run with limited athletic traits.

And a guy like Keldrick Falk, who Brad Biggs brought up, more on him in a second, but he brought him up as a guy that could go to the Bears.

That is the archetype profile of what a Dennis Allen player

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Best of the Bears: Best strategy for using 25th overall pick in NFL Draft

coach team is looking for in an edge rusher and you may have to trade up a little bit to get him and i know that will make a lot of people uh people's skin crawl but um the safety position seems like if they don't trade up that is a prime position at 25 to take one of the better safeties in this class because

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Best of the Bears: Best strategy for using 25th overall pick in NFL Draft

it always seems like that position is falling too late in that round.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Best of the Bears: Best strategy for using 25th overall pick in NFL Draft

Think about Malachi Starks last year going to the Ravens at pick 27.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Best of the Bears: Best strategy for using 25th overall pick in NFL Draft

So it feels like that is just going to be there, whether it's Thienemann or McNeil Warren, if they don't trade up.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Best of the Bears: Best strategy for using 25th overall pick in NFL Draft

Would you guys like to know the best players...

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show

25?

Best of the Bears: Best strategy for using 25th overall pick in NFL Draft
