Bears GM Ryan Poles and head coach Matt Eberflus were there to collect intel for their No. 9 overall pick, and to scout many other players who they may select throughout the draft.
Zooming in on the name tag in the first pic shows that is in fact Eberflus in attendance. The guy in the white hoodie and black coat in the video looks an awful lot like Poles, which seems to confirm several reports that the Bears GM was in attendance.
The Buckeyes have a couple of players who could be on the board when the Bears are on the clock at No. 9: left tackle Paris Johnson and wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba. Each man would raise the profile of the Bears offense immediately, and both will likely receive a long look from the front office and coaching staff.
Johnson is one of the most intriguing offensive line talents due to his upside and his incredibly long arms. If the Bears bring Johnson into the fold, it would add some flexibility and talent to the offensive line room, and would go a long way towards providing better protection for Justin Fields. Meanwhile Fields has said he would love to reunite with Smith-Njigba, who many see as the top WR prospect in this year’s draft. Adding another serious pass catching threat for Fields to target should give opposing defenses headaches, as they’d have to keep tabs on D.J. Moore, Darnell Mooney, Chase Claypool and JSN.pic.twitter.com/qgTOaAbW3NOf course, the Bears will be paying attention to many more players than just Johnson and Smith-Njigba.
