4 — Jerry Attaochu, Georgia Tech
Attaochu hasn’t been playing football for very long (he started in just the 9th grade), but he’s made a big impact so far in his career. Last season at Georgia Tech he tallied an impressive 12 sacks, while also showing an ability to drop back in coverage. He’s now had experience as a 3-4 outside linebacker as well as a 4-3 defensive end, which would bring additional value and flexibility to the Bears. He’s an under-the-radar type player who should be a target somewhere in the middle rounds.
