Chicago Bears Deemed Perfect For Live Bears

They call themselves the Chicago Bears, but the team hasn’t lived up to that name for a long time. The Bears were known as a physical and intimidating football team during their glory years. The kind of opponent people didn’t want to play. Over the past ten years, that reputation has seemed to crumble. Some even called them not physical enough. Too passive and soft. Especially on the offensive side.

How to fix such a problem? General manager Ryan Poles thinks he has a good idea. This comes by adding players who embrace the concept of violence and villainy into their game. Or, and this is just one idea, maybe they’re just drafting real live bears to their roster. At least that’s what ESPN thinks the team should do. During an NFL Draft Guide, they identified Chicago’s two biggest roster needs for next week’s draft. Attacking tackle was one of them, and they had the perfect solution in mind.

“And even though Jenkins is having a healthy 2022 season, the Bears are about to launch Larry Borom at the right tackle. With a pass blocking rate of 4.7%, the Day 3 rookie was the team’s weakest link in pass protection in 2021. No other Bears lineman with 200 or more pass snaps n even managed 3.2% of his pass blocks.

Prospects who could be suitable: Daniel Faalele »

This is the first time the Minnesota star has been connected to the Bears.

Do you remember that statement about writing an actual bear? No player of this class embodies such an idea more than Faalele. The common grizzly bear is about 6’5 when standing on its hind legs and weighs about 600 pounds. He is 6’8 and weighs 384 lbs. It’s a literal mountain of a human being. It’s no surprise that he uses that mass to his full advantage in the running game, blasting defenders off the ball. When he decides he wants to move someone, there’s not much he can do about it.

The concerns around Faalele are typical of those of its size. Many experts are concerned about its mobility. It’s not easy to move 380 pounds with any kind of speed or agility. That’s what makes the initial idea of ​​putting him in the Bears unusual. They are set to employ the out-of-bounds offense, a system notorious for requiring mobility from its blockers. The drafter wouldn’t make much sense in this regard.

Then again, the Chicago Bears may not have to worry.

Sure, the giant tackle might not be a ballerina, but there’s enough evidence on tape to suggest Faalele moves much better than believed. Lance Zierlein of NFL.com claimed he had good functional movement and impressive speed in his sliding steps. The problem may not be his athleticism but his experience. He only played organized football for four years.

His problems are more about technique and fundamentals. His hand combat is hard to watch at times and he doesn’t always take full advantage of his ridiculous 35 inch arms. Also, keep that in mind. Poles was part of a Kansas City Chiefs organization that traded for Orlando Brown Jr. last season. A player with the same dimensions as Faalele and the same athletic issues. He has since made the Pro Bowl and works more than well at tackle.

With the right coaching, this hulking mammoth can play.

It’s about whether the Chicago Bears think they need him. Remember that he is considered exclusively as a right tackle. Recent developments at Halas Hall suggest Teven Jenkins could return to this location. If true, the team will no longer need to fill it out. This would make Faalele an unnecessary choice.
