0:00 Bears defense13:00 QBs on the move18:10 Aikman23:54 NFL rule changesThe Bears’ current depth chart says one thing. The draft board might say another.Chicago has six bodies listed at defensive tackle, which raises a simple question with about twenty complicated follow‑ups: will Ryan Poles and Ben Johnson actually draft a defensive tackle — or is the focus strictly edge rusher and safety? And if safety was a priority… did free agency already take care of that?We dig into what the Bears’ draft strategy might look like, whether half this draft could end up devoted to offense, and if Poles could be gearing up to trade picks and move around the board yet again. There are answers. There are theories. There are also a lot of reasons to be confused.Elsewhere around the league:Jack Sanborn is back in Chicago, because some things just make senseCarson Wentz joins an already crowded QB room in MinnesotaThe Eagles trade for Andy Dalton, adding veteran chaos to the mixThe NFL may (or may not) address the Troy Aikman consulting situation with the DolphinsAnd yes, NFL rules changes are on the way, whether anyone asked for them or notDraft questions, roster math, league nonsense — and a reminder that depth charts lie this time of year.Subscribe for smart, funny Bears and NFL talk without the yelling.#chicagobears #bears #chicago #chicagosports #calebwilliams #sportstalkMake sure to subscribe to...✅ Dan Bernstein Unfiltered✅ Forward Progress - A Chicago Bears Podcast 🏈✅ Organization Win Championships: A Chicago Bulls Podcast 🏀All links to YouTube, Apple, Spotify and more available on 312Sports.comSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
