Chicago Bears: Adam Shaheen run blocking diaries

Most Chicago Bears fans tend to hope that a strong tight end duo of Adam Shaheen and Trey Burton can emerge this season. The two complement each other perfectly. Shaheen can go over the seams and stay in-line to block. Burton is a motion nightmare who can work with the ball in his hands.

Of course, this scenario looks nice on paper, but it would involve a step up in play from not only Burton, who was a third tight end in Philadelphia, but also Adam Shaheen. Shaheen was a rookie last season, and a is a former basketball player with limited tight end experience.
