Penn State defensive end Adisa Isaac pressures Illinois quarterback Luke Altmyer on Sept. 16, 2023, in Champaign. The greatest motivation for the Chicago Bears to swap a fourth-round draft pick for wide receiver Keenan Allen was the idea he can be a multiplier for the offense, just as edge rusherAn additional benefit of the deal — which for now is a one-year rental, similar to what the Houston Texans did inWithout Allen, the Bears would have had a serious need for a No.
After talking with multiple scouts and considering traits that are important to Eberflus, here are eight options the Bears could consider if they are searching for an edge rusher after Round 1.Chris Braswell works in position drills at Alabama’s pro day on March 20, 2024, in Tuscaloosa, Ala. “He’s got a more versatile rush plan than most of these guys you’re talking about after Round 1 because he’s coming from Alabama. Well-coached,” the scout said.Western Michigan defensive lineman Marshawn Kneeland runs a drill at the NFL scouting combine on Feb. 29, 2024, in Indianapolis.
Isaac had marginal testing numbers at the combine but has really good length with 33 7/8-inch arms and a lower body that can be developed in the weight room. If the Bears don’t get hung up on Kamara’s lack of length — his arms are only 32 3/8 inches — they might view him as a perfect fit for Eberflus’ HITS system. Kamara ran well in Indianapolis with a 4.57 in the 40 and had a broad jump of 10 feet, 3 inches.
“Really didn’t test well,” one scout said. “But he’s got an impressive ability to rush from speed to power and has a nice collection of moves. Great wing span with 33 7/8-inch arms and a long body. He can chase down plays from behind, and with this kid, you’ve got to go back to the tape to see if he’s faster than the combine times would lead you to believe.
“He’s not super twitchy like some of these other kids, but that’s what you wind up looking at when it gets to Day 3 a lot of the time. He can attack the edge but he’s got to get a stronger base.”Washington defensive lineman Bralen Trice runs a drill at the NFL scouting combine on Feb. 29, 2024, in Indianapolis.
