Is Buster Skrine’s role at nickel secure?

Raj Mehta-USA TODAY Sports It wasn’t my intention to make this latest Windy City Gridiron Chicago Bears round table all about the defense, but with so much of the training camp attention being heaped on the offense, it does feel good to get some defensive discussion going here at WCG.

Will second year pro Duke Shelley or rookie Kindle Vildor push 31-year old Buster Skrine at nickelback?

I’ll give my take after checking in with my WCG teammates.

EDITOR: These answers were given before cornerback Artie Burns was lost to the season with a torn ACL.
