Did The Bears Draft Sam Roush Specifically For The Seahawks? The Evidence Is There

It’s been discussed for almost two weeks. Why did the Chicago Bears draft Sam Roush in the 3rd round? Taking a blocking tight end that early, when they already have two studs in Colston Loveland and Cole Kmet, didn’t compute at the time. The primary argument was that Roush was the best blocker in the class and the Bears had lost Durham Smythe to free agency. They wanted to maintain the style of offense they used last year and needed a third tight end to do that. Still, a 3rd round pick felt rich.
