The Facts:
At the end of the third round the Bears pulled a surprise by taking Northern Illinois RB Wolfe with the first of back-to-back selections. Wolfe was a superproductive college player most often compared to former Giant Dave Meggett. But OC Ron Turner thought of another name. "He reminds me of Warrick Dunn more than anybody," Turner said. "He has the same kind of burst, the same kind of quickness and acceleration to get through the hole."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
While Wolfe is undoubtedly viewed as an exciting prospect at Bears headquarters, we are posting this comment as an example of the kind of discussion you can expect to hear this time of year. We're not saying Turner is hyping Garrett, but he is certainly putting a positive spin on a player who doesn't appear to have the size to survive in the NFL as an every-down player. Which is why we always suggest the following approach: File the information away; follow the player's progress and compare the comments with the results as we move forward.
