Since Ryan Pace has been general manager of the Chicago Bears, it has been interesting listening to his pre-draft press conferences. It is “smokescreen” week when it is the draft week. However, Pace talked about being more transparent and open. That said, take all that I share with you with a grain of salt.
The thing that stood out to me first was how Ryan Pace brought up football IQ. He mentioned how it would be necessary this year due to the nature of everything. So watching tape on a player’s IQ seems to be something that has been a point of emphasis for Ryan Pace and his scouts this year.
