And you watch what Lawrence did at the East-West Shrine game, and then you watch him in the pre-draft process at the Combine and the workout numbers that he puts together.
Just an explosive dude off the edge.
That's someone, if I was a Bears fan, if I heard his name called at 57 or 60, I'd be pretty thrilled.
And he fits that mold, the prototypical, traditional, you know,
four-man defensive line, defensive end.
Deny Dennis Sutton is another one.
I'm not as high as some people are, or at least were coming into the combine process on Dennis Sutton.
I don't think he's the elite level, but when you look at the workout numbers, and they're just so eye-popping, and then you look at some of the flashes and what he can develop into...
He's going to be a guy in that range, I think, late second that winds up coming off the board, worst case, somewhere early in the third.
But he fits that mold, too, in terms of kind of what a defensive end in that Bears scheme is going to look like.

Georgia, yes.
And obviously Kirby coming from Saban.

And it's in a lot of ways, the college game in the last decade or so, maybe a little longer, has kind of trickled up, whereas it used to be the NFL game would trickle down.
And so it started with like the spread concepts and some of the zone read stuff and and all the different things that you would see offensively and then defensively.
