Olsen's a good pick up, adding a good middle-of-the-field target for Rex Grossman. Bazuin is undersized but is said to have the best motor of any of the DEs in the draft, and I like taking a chance on Garrett Wolfe to team with Benson in the backfield in the third round.

Chicago Bears 2007 NFL Draft Review
Kansas.com, KS - 15 hours ago
Analysis: The Bears filled some needs on the first day, but only kinda-sorta. Olsen is another much-needed pass-catcher for Rex Grossman to look for, and was a great value at No. 31, but Chicago might have been better off with a pure wide receiver to eventually replace soon-to-be 34-year-old Muhsin Muhammad. Bazuin will join a front four that was average during the latter stages of last season, but he's an end when a tackle would have been more suitable. Wolfe is slated to become the change-of-pace back now that Thomas Jones is gone, but will he be big enough? And Okwo offers depth to a linebacking corps that is contending with the possible absence of OLB Lance Briggs, but is best-suited to be an inside linebacker. Of the three secondary picks on the second day, Lovie Smith needs at least one to step up and contribute defensively.

Bottom Line: There's plenty of talent here, but there appear to be some square pegs being crowbarred into round holes.
