Best Value For Bears In Every Round By Position: Linebacker
Nov 16, 2013; Louisville, KY, USA; Louisville Cardinals linebacker Preston Brown (2) tackles Houston Cougars running back Ryan Jackson (22) during the second half of play at Papa John
156th overall-Preston Brown–Louisville- Brown is a giant sized MLB. First and foremost he’s a guy that can eviscerate any ball carrier with the nerve enough to dare run it up the gut directly in Brown’s territory. He can also get after the quarterback too. Needs work in coverage however, but he can really control the line of scrimmage as a fire snorting field general patrolling the middle of the field.
Alternate pick-Lamin Barrow-LSU- He’s not the biggest OLB in the world, but no shrimp either. Especially considering his length, and hand size. Has the speed to chase down backside, and cover at the next level. His game is speed which is a trait that many GM’s in the NFL covet. Emery not excluded.
