Bears Scout Alabama Pro Day, Eyeing Key Draft Targets

0:00On March 25, the Chicago Bears are wrapping up their pre-draft preparations by hitting the road for pro days ahead of next month's NFL draft. They have major gaps to fill at defensive tackle, edge rusher, and safety after free agency. The good news is they hold four picks in the first 89 selections, including an extra second rounder from trading wide receiver DJ Moore, too, the Buffalo Bills. Earlier this week, General Manager Ryan Polz and new assistant General Manager Jeff King showed up at Alabama's pro day. It was a key stop in their scouting push as they narrowed down targets. Polz stood out as the only General Manager there, which signals the Bears have real interest in some of Alabama's standouts that match their needs. They're taking close looks at prospects like offensive tackle, Caden Proctor, Deepin Sivan LT Overton, Limebacker Deonte Lawson, wide receiver German, Bernard, and center Parker Brailsford who could fit from early rounds to later ones.
