117th overall-Bruce Ellington-South Carolina– So why is there a basketball player as my pic here? Well because that’s my next choice in the Bears 4th round spot Bruce Ellington who also was a PG for the game cocks. That pretty much tells you all you need to know about his abilities on the football field. A leader. Someone who is a thinker as a PG with extreme quickness. Has good long speed too, but his quickness is off the charts. Tested with the highest 20 and 60 yard shuttle. Also tough. Profiles perfectly as a slot receiver. Can also give you added value in the return game. Great hands.
Alternate pick-Brandon Coleman-Rutgers- Another absolute giant sized receiver. Extremely tall and long with 34″ arms. Not a very good vertical so his height and length definitely will help on 50/50 balls. Extremely strong as he repped 21 on the bench with those very long arms. Should fit as a west coast guy. Can shield off DB’s like a power forward posting up on the blocks. Very much the way the Bears current Corp gets it done. A team captain and a leader.
