Dillon Thieneman is a Chicago Bear - was it the best use of the first-round pick?
About this episode
Dan Bernstein critiques the Chicago Bears' decision to use their first-round pick on safety Dillon Thieneman instead of focusing on building the defensive line.
Dan Bernstein says the Bears first-round pick on a safety wasn't the best decision—because if you’re building a defense the right way, you start in the trenches, not the secondary. Safety is a position you can find. Impact on the defensive line isn’t. So, did the Bears ignore simple roster-building logic, or are they chasing a rare difference-maker? 0:00 Dillon Thieneman 18:15 FFF 38:50 Top 10 List 1:01:00 DBU Picks Dan Bernstein Unfiltered drops Monday-Friday 11am CT Make sure to subscribe to... ✅ Dan Bernstein Unfiltered ✅ Forward Progress - A Chicago Bears Podcast 🏈 ✅ Organization Win Championships: A Chicago Bulls Podcast 🏀 ✅ Off The Ivy: A Chicago Cubs Podcast ⚾️ All links to YouTube, Apple, Spotify and more available on 312Sports.com See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info .
