8. TJ Ward, 5-10, 211, Oregon
Ward is a mighty-mite at just 5-10, which doesn’t bode well against some of the big receivers in the NFC North, but he packs a wallop for anyone who dares comes across the middle. He comes pre-injured (just like the Bears like their draftees), having missed games with knee and ankle injuries during his college career. He grades as a 4-5 round pick, so if the Bears chose to go another direction with #75, he might help address a need in a later round.
