The Bears on Friday bolstered their defense by selecting Florida State defensive tackle Eddie Goldman with the 39th overall pick in the second round of the NFL Draft.

DT Eddie Goldman

Goldman was a two-year starter for the Seminoles. A 6-4, 336-pound nose tackle, he helped Florida State win the BCS National Championship in 2013 and was named first-team All-ACC last season.

Goldman's draft profile on NFL.com states that "his power at the point of attack and ability to discard blockers and actually make plays rather than just eating space will have 3-4 teams very excited about their potential nose guard of the future.
