Word is that Lovie Smith went out to Morgantown to conduct a personal interview and workout of Bruce Irvin and came back, ahem, sold.
I wouldn't be surprised if they, Chicago, went after him in the second. His physical skills are so remarkable, that I compared them to Ben Watson's, whom we had a major love fest for on draft day.
Irvin isn't as strong, and is definitely quicker. About the same speed and jumping ability. What's not to like about him in the second round? It's not as if Ben Watson set the SEC on fire as a pass-catching TE. We spend a first largely on his potential.
