5 QBs Chicago Bears must watch at NFL combine
2. Jacob Eason
Eason is an underclassman and may be on the Bears radar in round two. He comes in with a big arm and the ability to make plays down the field. However, he has one year of experience.
In that, you saw a player who worked well on schedule. However, when the play breaks down, he tends to make big mistakes or get tentative.
Eason is another player that will have the most important part of his evaluation be behind closed doors. Eason has a cannon; nobody is going to deny that.
However, teams will need to know what he was thinking in those key moments. Are his mistakes fixable, or is he another Jay Cutler type who has the look but never can put it all together.
If the Bears like what they hear, he is on the table to be drafted with their first pick.
