Summary

Hoge & Jahns are back to break down the top pass rushers in the NFL Draft and who could be the best fit for the Chicago Bears. With co-host Patrick Norton stepping in, the guys are joined by Eric Edholm of [NFL.com](http://nfl.com/) to dive into the latest EDGE and defensive line rankings. The conversation focuses on top defensive end prospects like Zion Young, Keldric Faulk, Dani Dennis-Sutton, Gabe Jacas, Derrick Moore, and Malachi Lawrence, and how they could fit what the Bears need defensively. Plus, a look inside the defensive tackle class, including Peter Woods, Kayden McDonald, Kaleb Proctor, and Gracen Halton. Who should Ryan Poles target to boost the Bears’ pass rush?
