Northwestern offensive linemen Peter Skoronski, left, and Vince Picozzi participate in a position drill during Northwestern pro day Tuesday in Evanston.

Northwestern coach Pat Fitzgerald is a lifelong Bears fan and one of the fiercest defenders of Peter Skoronski, his starting left tackle the past three seasons. When he heard the Bears traded their No. 1 overall draft pick Friday, he had one thought.

“When I saw the trade, I went: ‘Skoronski to the Bears — Let’s go … ’” Fitzgerald said Tuesday morning before the Wildcats’ on-campus pro day in Evanston.
