Brad Kaaya . 2. player. 57. There is no getting around it. The Bears can’t ignore the quarterback position in the draft any longer. Jay Cutler is no longer their future. He had his opportunities and for various reasons couldn’t take advantage. GM Ryan Pace has patiently boded his time, waiting for the right moment to get somebody he can build this franchise around. He wanted guys like Mariota and Wentz but they were too far out of reach. Good class or not, his wait-and-see approach must end.
<p>Persistent word of late indicates the Bears are doing heavy research on Miami quarterback Brad Kaaya. Not a surprise. He’s considered one of the most pro-ready prospects at the position. A tall passer who can stand in the pocket and deliver strikes when protected. There are concerns about his ability to handle pressure but it’s believed he’s one of the smartest players in the draft. That’s hugely important for a quarterback. Given the solid offensive line and running game the Bears have, it could be an ideal situation for him.</p>. QB. Miami (Fl.)
