We're 10 days away from the NFL Draft (Hour 4)

As the NFL Draft approaches with just 10 days remaining, Mully & Haugh dive deep into the Chicago Bears' draft strategy, guided by expert Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune. The conversation centers on the Bears' pressing need to upgrade their historically weak defensive front, which ranked 27th against the run and 21st in sacks. While speculation swirls about a potential first-round left tackle pick, the hosts and guest emphasize that defensive line improvement—particularly at edge rusher and defensive tackle—is paramount. Biggs highlights Auburn’s Keldrick Falk and Alabama’s Caden Proctor as potential fits, while also praising the versatile Caleb Downs as a high-impact safety prospect. The discussion explores trade-down scenarios, the value of top-30 visits, and the risks of drafting older, injury-prone players like Mesidor. Despite some skepticism about the current defensive depth, the hosts agree that the Bears must prioritize defense in the first two rounds, with four of their first 89 picks likely going to defensive positions. The episode closes with a tease for the upcoming draft show on April 25th, celebrating the team’s draft-driven culture and the excitement of the upcoming event.
