A third-round pick, Wolfe finished 11th all-time in NCAA Division I-A history with a school-record 5,164 rushing yards. His average of 156.5 yards per game is surpassed only by Ed Marinaro, O.J. Simpson and Herschel Walker. But the 5-8, 183-pound Wolfe did not get selected until the Bears took him 93rd overall because many scouts were concerned with his slight frame. ... The Bears will use Cedric Benson as the feature back with Adrian Peterson and Wolfe as the top reserves.
