Mocking the Mocks: Bears get a tight end and pass rusher

In this recent mock draft from Bobby Sylvester of the Fantasy Pros, he has the Chicago Bears addressing two need positions with their two second round picks. With the 43rd overall pick, the one the Bears received from the Oakland Raiders, Sylvester has them going with tight end Jared Pinkney from Vanderbilt, and with their 50th selection it’s Wisconsin outside linebacker Zack Baun.

Before the 2019 season, Pinkney (6’4”, 260) was considered by many to be the top senior tight end prospect in the nation, and even after only playing in eight games (20 receptions, 233 yards, 2 TDs) this seasosn he’s still near the top of some tight end rankings.
