29. Chicago Bears: Stephen Paea, DT, Oregon State

Paea had a dominant junior year but wasn't the same force as a senior primarily because he was the focus of every offense that he faced.  Paea is big strong one gap player who has enough quickness to get through gaps, but enough power to shed blocks and fight off double teams at the point of attack.  He's probably more of a one-technique in the one gap scheme than he is a true three technique but he'll fit in well with the Bears' DT rotation in place of Tommie Harris.
