Fit for Chicago Bears

The question with Jeff Holland is going to be how much he can play in space, and how quick he can get out of his stance. He did not do a vertical or short agility test  at the combine and those are his two biggest areas of question. Whether or not he does those drills at his Pro Days could end up to be telling about his draft stock.

If he tests well and shows promise to improve in space, he is definitely worth a shot. He is a mid round projection anyways and has pass rushing skills. However, the questions in coverage will make him a scheme question for the Vic Fangio defense. They certainly will not draft him without bringing him in for a private visit to see what he can do. These days before the NFL draft matter to a player such as Jeff Holland much more than others. We will see if he can answer some of his questions.
