Well, at least we can get Te'o out of the way in a relative hurry. Fake girlfriend controversy, bla bla, here's what we really need to know here. The Bears more than likely aren't bringing Brian Urlacher back and have a big hole in the middle of their defense. Te'o made a ton of tackles in college and won a ton of awards, nearly winning the Heisman. He plays the exact spot where the Bears have a need. Te'o plays fast, is always in the right spot, doesn't miss a lot of tackles and brings intensity and passion to the field. It's slipped under the radar that Te'o spent a very difficult offseason getting in better shape by losing 15 pounds. With the Bears addressing their other major needs in free agency by signing Jermon Bushrod and Martellus Bennett, they're left a pretty perfect match here with Te'o, one they hope works out a lot better than Manti and Lennay did.
The Bengals are on the clock.
