Bears set to pick at 75, will they move up?


What will Jerry do? 

After their relaxing day off during round one of the draft, the Chicago Bears are expected to make their first pick later tonight at pick number 11 in the third round (75 overall).

I'll keep you updated on Twitter throughout the night as to where the Bears may go with their first pick, but if it's not a safety I will throw a fit. In that case I'll be at Halas Hall yelling from outside the war room.

There's been a lot of talk regarding Jerry Angelo moving up in the draft (possibly into the 2nd round) to pick a safety with more immediate impact. While I won't say it's impossible, it's highly unlikely. Angelo just doesn't have the ammo in terms of picks to move up, nor would any expendable asset from the roster net any pick that high. I'd rather Jerry just make his picks this year and provide valuable depth at key positions. After all, his best picks come in the later rounds. Either way, the Bears will officially be on the clock later tonight.
