The Bears have a lot of money tied up at the linebacker position. And I will admit, I got very little usable material on these guys. So, I’ll keep this brief.
**Is T.J. Edwards worth the money?** _“Yes. One thing that fans discount too often is the ‘quarterback of defense’ stuff. That guy is so damn important. I know he’s not the green dot but that doesn’t matter. He’s the orchestrator. And I expect big things from him behind this new front.”_
**I don’t get Tremaine Edmunds. Am I wrong?** _“What don’t you get? Is he overpaid? Probably. But the Bears weren’t getting him if they didn’t overpay. What’s odd about Edmunds is he’s a perfect complement to a great pass rush and he hasn’t had that in Buffalo or Chicago. You force quarterbacks into some quick throws over the middle and he’ll be a five-pick guy.”_
**Did the Beas overdraft Ruben Hyppolite?** _“We had him on our board. A little bit later than the fourth but I don’t think much later. Sixth, I think. People seemed surprised by that pick but we weren’t. I didn’t scout him but our guy who did liked him for specials because of the speed. Ben LOVES speed above most other things. This was not a draft with safe late-round prospects. If you saw a trait in a guy you loved, you took him. Bears clearly did that. Why not?”_
