Bears draft DE Shea McClellin

With the 19th pick in the 2012 draft, the Chicago Bears have selected Boise State DE Shea McClellin.  Thought by most to be an ideal fit as an OLB in a 3-4 defense, McClellin is a high effort guy who is excellent when dropping back in coverage.  Upon further review of his game film, he played with his hand in the dirt a bit more than I remembered and he showed impressive burst off the snap in those situations and great speed around the edge.  He seems to lack some power and doesn't show much of a bull rush.  He does, however, show a knack of slipping through the cracks along the offensive line and getting into the backfield.  He is a high character guy, but I question his fit in our defensive scheme.  I would've prefered to see a Chandler Jones or David DeCastro with the 19th pick, but there's no doubt that we got a good football player.  Hopefully, he'll be productive in the Bears system.  He at least has one thing going for him.  Playing across from Julius Peppers certainly can't hurt.
