Bears head coach Matt Eberflus Via ChicagoBears.com:
“Having that No. 9 pick is a really good spot to be in. It's right there at the top. We're going to get a 'blue' player there, for sure. What we've done in free agency allows us to be flexible, to really be able to take the best player, one we feel fits us in that spot.”

Bears head coach Matt Eberflus Via ChicagoBears.com:
“It's important that we get that piece because you have to have the 1-2 punch. It can be inside as well. You look at who affects the quarterback the most, I would also argue that the inside piece is also something that we should be looking at, and it's important that we do that.
Direct line to the quarterback. When they max protect, it's a soft spot in the protection. We're looking at all pass rushers. It can be inside, outside, all along the line. We're having an open mind in that regard.”
