1. player. 57. Want to fix the biggest problem on the roster? Sometimes the easiest course of action is taking the best player in the draft at that position. Boom. Solved. That what the Bears would be doing, or trying to do were they to select Alabama offensive tackle Cam Robinson. Most agree he’s the consensus best tackle in the draft by a wide margin. He’s a big and powerful blocker who enforces in the run game but has enough movement skill to handle pass rushers on an island. He does have off-the-field baggage though, so there’s risk involved.. OT. Alabama. Cam Robinson

Virginia Tech. Bucky Hodges . 2. player. 57. Tight end is definitely the other position on offense that is grossly lacking in overall talent. The Bears tried to find upgrades for it after traded Martellus Bennett. They failed and have been forced to move ahead with Zach Miller. This can’t continue if they want the offense to excel. Bucky Hodges is still raw in some areas but the Virginia Tech product is becoming a force in the passing game. Another of those basketball types who can run with speed and uses his 6’6″ frame to maximum advantage in jump ball situations.. TE

57. Baylor quarterbacks have sort of stigma surrounding them these days. The reason being they come from a spread offense, put up lots of numbers but fall flat the moment they get to the NFL. Robert Griffin III is the most well-known of that group. So any team that drafts Seth Russell is taking a chance. His numbers are outstanding. He has size, mobility and spins a nice ball with velocity. The question is can he absorb a pro offense and run it at a high level? A 3rd round pick is worth the gamble to find out.. QB. Baylor. Seth Russell . 3. player
