Matt Miller works over at ESPN.
He was at the Senior Bowl.
And on Monday morning, we woke up and we looked at your mock draft, Matt.
And what I love to see is that someone knows the team they're discussing.
Down at 25, you got the Bears taking an edge rusher.
In the second round, you've got them taking a safety.
Those are needs of consequence on this team.
So you've done your research.
Tell us about the edge rusher that you had the Bears mocked to and if there are others that you considered.
Yeah, this is a great edge class.
So I had Zion Young from Missouri who was at the Senior Bowl and had a really good week.
I put him in there.
I think the key is finding someone opposite Montez Sweat who has more of a power element to their game, someone that can be an edge setter in the run game.
Zion is 6'5", 262 pounds.
He can play on the left or right side of the defense.
He has length.
That showed up in Mobile.
It also showed up during his time at Missouri.
So he'll use a long arm to lock out offensive tackles, but he does have enough agility to get around the corner and make pressures in the pass game.
Their expectations of Missouri this year, that Damon Wilson, the transfer from Georgia, would be the guy.
