A look at the Chicago Bears’ scouting of running backs, which is split into three tiers: First Round Talent, Round 2-3 Talent, and Late Round Talent. Each position’s scouting takes into account attributes, most importantly, physicals and age second, and ddt third, along with factoring in personal preferences and who fits the scheme or mold of a Monster of the Midway.
Round 1 Talent
Jeremiyah Love
Rounds 2-3 Talent
Dylan Edwards
Makhi Hughes
Demond Claiborne
Jaden Nixon
Quintrevion Wisner
Late Rounds Talent (4-7)
Jaheim White
Darius Taylor
LJ Martin
Hindsight
It was Love or bust for Chicago. It was bust. D’Andre Swift will get to finish out his contract very surprisingly. If only Kyle Monangai had even 88 speed instead of 86 I would have made him RB1. However, Wisner was my draft crush at 20 years old out of Texas, so I was tempted as he continued to fall. He didn’t get to the 7th round for me to do it, and by then, I rather take a chance on a random guy I find and think can be of use than a Kyle Monangai replacement who’s just as slow like LJ Martin and Darius Taylor. I know Makhi Hughes made it really far, too, but he was too bad to actually take, even out of Oregon. Stay tuned for defense tomorrow, which is what I really spent my time on.
