As executives, scouts and coaches pack up and head out of Indianapolis with another Scouting Combine under their belts, it’s time to look at some guys who really helped their draft stock and how that might affect the Chicago Bears.

Honorable Mention: Terron Armstead, OT, Arkansas-Pine Bluff

Armstead showed off some freakish athleticism, posting a best 4.71 4o among offensive linemen.  He’s the type of meteoric rises that makes you a little nervous, but he’s make an interesting project for the Bears if they could get him in the second round.  (more…)

The latest incarnation of the FanSided Mock Draft (which is oddly called Week 15 when we’re a couple of days into Week 16) has the Bears drafting 20th, just out of reach of the really elite players.

Here’s where they see the Beloved going:

20. Chicago Bears – Eric Fisher, Offensive Tackle, Central Michigan

Fisher is often compared to a former Central Michigan offensive lineman — Joe Staley. The Bears have struggled along the offensive line and it leaves Jay Cutler battered and bruised on a weekly basis. The defense is championship caliber and Cutler has proven to be capable of leading this team when healthy. In order to keep him healthy, they need to address the offensive line.

You can’t go wrong picking an offensive lineman for the Bears.  Fisher was named third team All American for the Central Michigan Chippewas.  The 6’7″ 305 pounder is projected as a mid-to-late first round selection.  I’ve seen him going as high as 16th and as low as 28th in a couple of different mock drafts.
