183rd overall-Cody Latimer-Indiana- Another big WR who can jump. Played basketball, and before he was in college was his main sport so athleticism and leaping ability is there. Also very strong. Had the highest reps on the bench press of all WR’s and even out lifting some linemen with 23. Great blocker too. Would fit in with the current crop of Wr’s the Bears have on the roster. Completely fits the current system the Bears play.
Alternate pick-Josh Huff-Oregon- Huff profiles best as a slot receiver, and should fit well in the Bears system. Very tough and hard nosed kid who would sooner level a DB on a block in the run game as he would catch a game winning TD. Kind of reminds me a little of Steve Smith in that way. Came up from a tough upbringing and has made good with hard work and took advantage of his opportunities. Would prosper in the Bears locker room.
