Chicago Bears Mock Draft 4.0: Chicago Bears keep it simple in top 10
Round 2, 61 Overall: Felix Anudike-Uzomah, EDGE, Kansas St.
One thing that does make sense is an edge rusher falling to the Chicago Bears in this range. There is a group of five or six guys, and all of them have an expected draft range in this area. We already mocked Isaiah Foskey and Derick Hall to the Chicago Bears in past iterations. Now, we are going with Felix Anudike-Uzomah.
The tape that FAU brings is questionable if only for the defensive scheme that he was asked to play in. The team asked him to play inside the tackle closer to the guard as a 4i player. That is something that may happen in the Big 12, but he is not going to play that role in the NFL.
So, he got blown up more in the run game than he probably will more outside. Also, he did not flash all of his pass-rushing moves. This is what is going to push him into this round-two range, and put him in the tier of guys who are not quite locks to be studs in the NFL, but there is legitimate potential. Whether it be Foskey, Hall, or FAU, the Chicago Bears need to take advantage.
