IS OVER @#IN KANSAS CITY. AS FOR THE BELOVED BEARS, NOTHING TOO SURPRISING. LETTING AUSTIN REED GOES LEAVES THE NFL CHICAGO BEARS WITH THE YOUNGEST -- CHEVY.COM TRAINING CAMP COVERAGE@# WITH US TODAY IS THE ILLINOIS SPORTS WRITER OF THE YEAR FROM THE ATHLETICS, KEVIN. JONES MAKES THIS TEAM, HOW SURPRISED ARE YOU? >>@# NOT SURPRISED AT ALL. THIS PERSON HAS GREAT TRAITS. HE'S BIG, FAST, AND NOW YOU HAVE A NEW RULE THAT PUTS THE BALL IN HIS HANDS MORE OFTEN. THE BEARS MOVING IN THE RUNNING BACK MIGHT HAVE LOOKED LIKE A MOVE OF DESPERATION. IT DIDN'T CHANGE MY BELIEFS, THIS IS SOMEBODY THEY BELIEVE I# VALUABLE, AND IF IT TURNS INTO A NICE RUNNING BACK AND GETS THE BALL TWO OR THREE TIMES PER GAME, WHY NOT? IS THERE ANYBODY ON THAT LIST REALLY THAT IS WITH PARTING WAYS WITH A THIRD-ROUND PICK? I DON'T THINK SO. >> I DON'T THINK SO EITHER. I DON'T THINK THE DECISIONS TODAY WILL AFFECT THE SEASON OR# THE COURSE OF WHAT HAPPENS NEXT. I LIKE THIS IDEA, AND PEOPLE HAVE SCOFFED AT IT A LITTLE BIT. WHEN YOU HAVE JONES YOU HAVE A MISMATCH. THE OFFENSIVE COORDINATOR IS LOOKING AT A HANDFUL OF AREAS. OUT OF THE BACKFIELD,@# YOU HAV THE OPPORTUNITY TO ISOLATE HIM ON A LINEBACKER, MAYBE A STRONG SAFETY, AND YOU CAN'T DEFEND IT. >> WE CAN ACKNOWLEDGE HE HAS NOT LIVED UP TO @#THE BILLING O A THIRD WIDE RECEIVER, OF COURSE HE HASN'T. HE'S NOT EVEN A WIDE RECEIVER ANYMORE. SO I GET THAT, BUT WITH THE SIXTH ROUND PICK, THEY SAY OF COURSE YOU SHOULD MAKE THE TEAM, -- THIS RULE EXISTS THAT ALLOWS A GUY LIKE HIM TO HAVE THE BALL# MORE OFTEN. I THINK LARSON WILL HAVE FUN WITH THIS GUY. THIS IS A GUY WHO COORDINATORS LOVE, BECAUSE THEY WANT TO PLAY THAT CHESS GAME. THEY THINK I'M GOING TO MAKE IT WORK. MAYBE OTHERS GET FRUSTRATED WITH THE DROPS AND OTHER THINGS HE'S HAD TO DEAL WITH. @# I SEE SOMETHING I CAN WORK WITH. >> I WANT YOUR TAKE ON WHAT WE TALKED ABOUT IN THE TERMS OF THE BEARS HAVING THE YOUNGEST QUARTERBACKS IN THE LEAGUE. THAT 25 DAYS IN SEATTLE, I DON'T THINK WE WILL MISS HIM HE CAN MAYBE BE THE MERGENCY @#GUY ON SOME SUNDAYS. WHAT'S YOUR FEELING ABOUT THE BEARS BEING THAT YOUNG AT THE POSITION? >> NEITHER OF THEM ASKED YOUNG. IT'S LIKE ONE OF THE FIRST THINGS. CALEB WILLIAMS ACTS LIKE A VETERAN. HE'S VERY MATURE. AS IS TYSON. TO THINK THAT A YEAR AGO NOW WE ARE TALKING ABOUT THE NUMBER FOUR @#QUARTERBACK TO NUMBER TW HE MAY BE THE HALL OF FAME GAME, THERE'S BEEN CHATTER. THEY LOVE THE GUY. AND I THINK THESE ARE TWO MATURE PLAYERS, AND HE HAS A LOT OF EXPERIENCE. @# I DON'T THINK IT'S A CONCERN. THEY HAVE A LOT OF GUYS IN THAT ROOM, A LOT OF COACHES. >> TO ME THE BEST EXAMPLE OF SOMEBODY PLAYING HIS WAY ON THE ROSTER, THERE ARE MANY EXAMPLES ON A TEAM TOUGH TO MAKE. HARDY MIGHT @#BE AN EXAMPLE. >> I THOUGHT HE DID A NICE JOB FROM KEMPER PRESEASON. AND HE WAS NOT JUST A FLASH IN THE PAN. HE WAS CONSISTENT IN TRAINING CAMP. HE MADE A CONSISTENT PLAY IN THE PRESEASON. WE DON'T @# REALLY KNOW WHO IS GOING TO BE THE BEST COMBINATION, SO YOU HAVE GOT HARDY, LET'S SEE. COACHES HAVE BEEN IMPRESSED. BOOKER, E BRING HIM IN, MADE THE TRADE FOR TAYLOR, WALKER, AND SWEAT, AND YOU HEAR THAT ABOUT WHO WILL BE THE HOT HANDE# . I WAS THINKING ABOUT THIS ON MY WAY OVER HERE. WE THINK ABOUT SOMEONE WHO MAKES THE TEAM SOMETIMES GETS CUT, AND IT'S ONE OF THE MOST BRUTAL MOMENTS. DANIEL HARDY MIGHT BE THAT GUY IF THE BEARS-- HE COULD BE PLAYER 52 OR 53. THAT'S SOMETHING TO KEEP AN EYE ON. @# >> A COUPLE GUYS THEY WILL NEED ON THE INJURY RESERVE THAT'S INTERESTING, THEY COULD BRING HIM BACK, AND YOU CAN'T LOOK PAST THE NEED FOR A SWING TACKLE. PATRICK AS WELL. >> YAKIMA SCALES HASN'T MISSED A GAME IN SIX YEARS. WHEN YOU @#LOOK AT YOUR CENTER GUY ON THIS TEAM FOR THEM TO HAVE TO GO OUT AND GET A NEW LONG SNAP TO GET READY WITH TORI AND THE VETERANS IN ONE WEEK, THE VETERANS ARE GOOD AT IT, BUT YOU HAVE TO KEEP THAT IN MIND FOR THE FIRST FEW GAMES. JACOB MARTIN IS AN INTERESTING GUY, BECAUSE HE WAS A NUMBER- THREE @#DEFENSIVE END. WHO WAS GOING TO BE THE OPPOSITE OF MONTEZ SWEAT? JACOB MARTIN WAS THE GUY ON THE FIELD AND GOT HURT EARLY ON IN CAMP. IF HE CAN GET HEALTHY@# AGAIN IT WILL BE GREAT TO SEE HIM. >> STEWART JUMPED OFF THE SCREEN. HE IS A CORNERBACK FROM TROY, TWO INTERCEPTIONS IN THE FINALE. HE GETS CAUGHT. BUT WHAT'S HIS FUTURE? DO YOU THINK HE MIGHT HAVE A SPOT @#ON ANOTHER 53-MAN ROSTER >> IF OTHER TEAMS SAW WHAT HE DID, AND NOT JUST WHAT HE DID IN THE PRESEASON GAMES, IN TROY HE DID THE MOST IMPORTANT THING AND MAKE PLAYS ON THE FOOTBALL TREATY DOES NOT HAVE THAT UBER GREAT, OUTSTANDING ATHLETIC ABILITIES, IN TERMS OF SPEED OR THINGS LIKE THAT. HE MAKES PLAYS ON THE BALL. HE DID IT @#IN TROY, AT CAMP, A IN THE PRESEASON. THE OTHER THING ABOUT IT IS ALL 32 TEAMS, NONE OF THEM DRAFTED HIM. THERE'S OPPORTUNITY, THE NICE THING ABOUT THE SQUAD, SO MANY OF THESE GUYS WILL END UP ON THE FINAL SQUAD. WE SAW HIM IN PRACTICE AND HE @# STOOD OUT. THAT'S JUST, THAT TELLS YOU HOW DEEP AND TALENTED THAT CORNERBACK ROOM IS. >> AS OF NOW, I'M GOING WITH DeANDRE CARTER. HE WILL COME IN@#-- CUT TODAY, HE BACK TO MORROW? >> CERTAINLY SEEMS THAT WAY. CHICAGO TRIBUNE REPORTED, AND THAT WOULD MAKE SENSE. I THINK THEY COULD FIND
