Kevin White. 1. player. 57. <p>The Chicago Bears did the right thing in sticking with quarterback Jay Cutler another year. Some protection for him would be nice but some speed to go with that big arm could open some things up. And in the first round, the Bears selected Kevin White to supply that speed on the other side of Alshon Jeffery and open up the running game for Matt Forte.</p> <p>With guys like Mason Foster and Pernell McPhee added in free agency, the Bears will have a highly functional 3-4 front. And in the second round of the draft, the Bears selected nose tackle Eddie Goldman to make it even better. That will improve the run defense that was uncharacteristicly bad for a Bears team last year.</p> <p>Center Will Montgomery, who just got there from the Denver Broncos, has the Sun setting on his career at 32. So the Bears made a good pick in the third round with the selections of center Hroniss Grasu. He may take the position from the veteran right away but at the very least, he’ll take it at some point and anchor the offensive line.</p>. WR. Virginia
