Maybe even Derrick Brooks.  The next thing the bears need to do is trade away their first round pick for a second and a third-round pick. This is because the Bears' priorities have changed from a WR, to an OL, and there isn't enough talent at the spot where they are. They can get good talent in the second rounds, and they can get extra picks to fill other needs as well. Second Round: Duke Robinson Oklahoma G/T OL 329 lbs.
