He said that they should be playing OLB in a 3-4 because neither is that strong against the run and they may be better served at OLB.

Someone from the DE list that could be a darkhorse player for the Bears is Chandler Jones from Syracuse. At 6'5" with long arms and solid speed he is the type of player that the Bears have targetted at the position.
