Chicago Bears should focus on linebacker, defensive end at combine

Here is a closer look at the positions the Chicago Bears could target at the NFL combine in Indianapolis.

Positions of need: The Bears desperately require help on defense, specifically in the front seven. Nose tackle Eddie Goldman (2015 second-round pick) is currently the lone solidified starter on the defensive line. Jarvis Jenkins is a free agent. Chicago could target the defensive end position early in the draft process. At linebacker, the Bears want to find dynamic pass-rushers to complement outside linebacker Pernell McPhee. Inside, the Bears could be looking to replace both Shea McClellin (free agent) and Christian Jones.
