The Senior Bowl is officially in the books. Following a week of practices and meetings with NFL teams, the Senior Bowl culminated in a 27-10 win for the National Team.
Bears offensive coordinator Luke Getsy’s American team was on the losing side of things. But the experience was a valuable one for Getsy, who got an up close look at some of the nation’s top prospects, both on the field and in the meeting room.
There were a number of prospects who impressed during the week of practices and Saturday’s game that helped evaluate their draft stock.
Getsy said that he was confident the Bears will draft someone — perhaps multiple players — from the Senior Bowl.
“One hundred percent, there’s no question about that,” Getsy said. “The info that you get in the meeting room and the individual period, that one-on-one intimate session is so critical. There’s definitely a Chicago Bear sitting in this group for sure.”

Not to mention, Reed is already a big fan of Fields.
