The Bears have handed out jerseys and numbers . If my assumption is correct the o and d at the end of some players jerseys signify offense and defense and will have to be sorted out later if both players make the squad.
Draft Class:
OT Chris Williams (74)
RB Matt Forte (22)
WR Earl Bennett (85)
DT Marcus Harrison (94)
S Craig Steltz (27)
CB Zackary Bowman (35)
TE Kellen Davis (87)
DE Ervin Baldwin (99)
G Chester Adams (72o)
LB Joey LaRocque (90)
OT Kirk Barton (69)
WR Marcus Monk (19)
Undrafted free agents:
PK Shane Longest (2)
QB Caleb Hanie (12)
WR Curtis Hamilton (14)
QB Nick Hill (17)
CB Leslie Majors (46)
DB Trey Brown (49)
DE Nick Osborn (67)
DE Joe Clermond (72d)
OT Cody Balogh (79o)

An Early Assessment
by WCG
on Apr 30, 2008 7:36 AM CDT
Here are ten assessments/predictions concerning the Bears draft picks for next year .
3. I know I am in the uncomfortable position of agreeing wholeheartedly with Mel Kiper Jr. that the Bears improved as much, if not more, than any other team in the draft. Whether that means they went from a 6-10 team to a 7-9 one or from 8-8 to 9-7, well, that will take training camp to crystallize those projections.
The offense, which could include new starters at as many as six positions, received an instant upgrade as long as left tackle Chris Williams and running back Matt Forte start from Day 1, even if it means matching up Williams on Colts right defensive end Dwight Freeney. Remember too that Grossman and Orton immediately improved with the addition of rookies likely to bolster the Bears' pass protection and running game.

Chicago Bears Sign QB Caleb Hanie
by WCG
on Apr 28, 2008 9:51 AM CDT
The Chicago Bears signed another QB as an undrafted free agent. At least this time I had heard of the guy if only through Mel Kiper's obsessive stance that he should have been drafted. Colorado State quarterback Caleb Hanie signed with the Bears and brings his 64% completion rating with him.
Hanie also received calls from Indianapolis, Dallas, St. Louis and Buffalo
Caleb Hanie
Height: 6-2 | Weight: 225 | 4.9
If anybody can find me some decent info on this kid, please sent it to me. Thanks
