Pick No. 11: Shane Ray (Missouri)

With the 11th pick in the NFL Draft, the Chicago Bears select Shane Ray from the Missouri Tigers. From the looks of things so far this year, the Chicago Bears have a whole lot going wrong. But they have to give Jay Cutler a few years with all the money they have invested in him.

Perhaps he could use some protection to go with the receivers and the running back he has over there. But the Bears have always been known to have a good defense and that’s not the case right now. So they should start with defensive end Shane Ray because they need a pass rusher to deal with those NFC North quarterbacks and he’s the best player on the board.
