Greg: DT Bilal Nichols
You never want to lose a player, especially someone that produces like Eddie Goldman, but the beauty of the Bears defense is they have depth and versatility. At 6’3, 313-lbs, Bilal Nichols can clog the running lanes, just like Goldman has done. The 23-year old is expected to take a big jump in his third year after being drafted in the fifth round of the 2018 NFL Draft.
This is a great opportunity for Nichols to show that big jump after a down 2019 season where he recorded fewer sacks, tackles, tackles for loss, and QB hits compared to his rookie season the year before.
