With the Chicago Bears finally getting on the practice field today (YAY!!!), we'll take a look at the last position group in our Roster Battles series, outside linebacker.
Yesterday we went over two thirds of the front seven when we discussed the defensive line and the inside linebackers. Chicago Bears defensive coordinator Vic Fangio may not have the exact type of player he wants at every position for his 3-4 D yet, but he's been masterful throughout his coaching career in getting the most from his players.
Some of the defensive end to outside linebacker converts still may end up playing some in a 40 front look, which could affect he numbers at the position.
