I have been watching a lot of video of the Vic Fangio led San Francisco 49ers, as well as Draft Breakdown video of former Georgia Bulldog Leonard Floyd to see into the future of how Fangio may use the Chicago Bears first round selection.

I’ll be using stills from both Draft Breakdown and NFL.com footage to show you the Floyd’s skill set (as well as third round selection Jonathan Bullard) and what he was asked to do in college. I’ll also breakdown how Fox and Fangio used their ex players at their previous stops. In this case Fangio’s use of Aldon Smith and Justin Smith with stunts and twists to wreak havoc on their opponents.

As you’ll see in the Draft Breakdown video stills both Floyd and Bullard have executed twists and stunts to a high degree of success and there is no reason to believe the Bears won’t exploit this between the two of them to a high degree of success with the Bears.
