Go to round five, pick 148.

Noah Sewell, Oregon State,

Oregon linebacker.

Kind of accolades of Oregon.

All Pac-12 first team.

All-Pack 12, first-team all conference.

Butkus Award semifinalist and coach's choice for Pack 12 freshman defensive

player of the year. So he is decorated.

2021, best season.

114 tackles, 8.5 tackles for a loss.

Last year, 56 tackles and 5.5 tackles for a loss.

And that's probably why he fell so much in the draft.

I mean, that's a much different production level from 2021 to 2022.

7.5 sacks and 33 games.

Knows how to rush the quarterback.

Apparently the knock on him is that he can be a little shaky and pass coverage.

And the Bears have already invested heavily in Tremaine Edwards and Edmonds and T.J. Edwards.

So we don't know how much playing time he's going to get.

The Bears have obviously invested significant amounts of money

in legit pros who have played the position at the NFL level. That's not to say, though,

that this is a dumb pick, or that he's a bus, or that he won't work out. He's decorated. First

of all, if somebody goes down, he's going to play. Chances are someone's going to go down.
