5 standouts from the 2020 Senior Bowl that should be on Bears’ radar

There were several prospects that flashed throughout Senior Bowl week, and some that should be of interest to the Bears.

2. EDGE Josh Uche, Michigan

Sticking with the theme of edge rushers, Michigan’s Josh Uche has been someone whose stock has risen during this week’s Senior Bowl. Like Anae, Uche was someone that always seems to find a way to the quarterback — and that was true Saturday, where he excelled both in creating havoc, getting after the quarterback and in coverage.

Uche excels coming off the edge — as evidenced by his 8.5 sacks this season — as well as covering sideline to sideline. He got to the quarterback several times during Saturday’s game, including one sack and a quarterback hit that led to an interception of Colorado quarterback Steven Montez. While Uche wasn’t initially projected as a first-round pick, his performance at the Senior Bowl did well to raise attention.
