Former Bears Scout Thinks They Found Their Next Lance Briggs

When discussing the greatest eras of Chicago Bears defense, three come to mind. There were the elite units of the early 1960s, culminating in their 1963 champions. There were, of course, the 1980s groups, made famous by the unforgettable 1985 defense. Last but not least, the defenses from 2005 through 2012 were laden with elite players. Brian Urlacher is considered the cornerstone of that group. Charles Tillman might’ve been the most unique. However, not enough people remember Lance Briggs.
