Bears Drafted Kyle Long With Suh, Raji In Mind 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Mon May 13, 2013 3:53 pm

The Chicago Bears drafted Kyle Long in the first round with Ndamukong Suh specifically in mind.


Long was considered a reach by many NFL Draft experts, a right guard out of Oregon.


"I am still trying to find the best five and where they fit best," said offensive coordinator Aaron Kromer, who is also the line coach. "Suh plays over the right guard and we have to win the division first. Obviously, at Green Bay they flip their tackles, so they could have B.J. Raji on both sides. We want to make sure that we have good matchups in these games. We drafted these guys to win the division first."
