4. Clemson OL Jordan McFadden is a sleeper for the Chicago Bears

Jordan McFadden is a player that Chicago Bears fans have to keep an eye on during the draft weekend. It will be interesting to see how the NFL views him, and the Bears brought him to Halas Hall, showing that they have an interest in finding out more about him.

That is because while he played tackle at Clemson, and has the length to play tackle he is 6'2", and there are very few tackles historically that short. There are a lot of centers at his size, and his length could be a huge advantage at center.

McFadden spent a lot of time at the Shrine Bowl snapping the football and worked out at center at the NFL Combine. Did the Chicago Bears bring him in to see how comfortable he is at center? Is this another situation where you draft the best lineman and let practice dictate his role? This feels like a legitimate sleeper at center.
