Only 4 Bears remain active with the team. At the time since Hester was primarily a returner rather than a corner, I added him to this part since it seems more relevant to his contributions to the team. One thing I did notice was the offensive line was basically at its peak or slightly over it, but at a point where it definitely needed a youth injection. Angelo responded by spending only 6 picks on the line in the next 5 years, most of them 6/7th rounders.
