Grasu is likely going to learn to play swing OG/OC and be a backup; that's not a horrible option for him. If that doesn't work he'll be cut/traded.
Or a thought that just sounds like a Bears move...dump Massie somehow and move Long back out to RT...then shuffle the Guards however they want lol
Most likely Fox will push Whitehair out to LT, put Grasu at LG, Sitton to center, move Unrein to RG because he projects better as a g than a DL-men, and move Long to RT...with most moves coming a week before the season opens
My next 2 would be : CB & DE - of all the above QB is the greatest need followed by RT ( which is a close 2nd ) . The CB / DE thing should be decided by who projects as the best player ( but both are big needs themselves so ........ )

What about OLB?
That's essentially what Floyd really is ( and they already have Young signed for 3 more years ) so maybe for depth - but not until 4th rd or later ( after they've drafted the other 4 spots imo )

What about Houston's ACL concerns and the fact there is a real possibility he might be let go after this season? What about Mcphee and his knee problem?
Our Pass Rushers are the weakest part of this team. Garrett would fix that problem

Let's get down to brass tax - Houston's done here and so is McPhee ( it 'seems' , since I find it hard to believe that a chronic problem will get better ) .
I'd be real happy with Garrett as long as they don't pass on a franchise QB if ones sitting there . So it's one or the other ( and maybe they can draft someone like Baker Mayfield in rd 2 if they can get Garrett rd 1 ) .
To delve into the pass rush problems . When Urlacher became a starter , alot of the success he had sacking the QB , came from blitzes up the middle . When's the last time we've seen a Bears middle-backer blitz up the middle and be successful at it ? Fangio is a great DC , but if he's gonna get the most out of all these guys , HE has to get better / more creative , at figuring out how to make everyone more effective ... and that means picking the right blitzes at the right times .
