2013 NFL Mock Draft: Jonathan Cooper picked by Bears

Chicago needs help along the offensive line in the worst way, something that Jonathan Cooper should provide.

The Chicago Bears have a great defense, but offensively struggle mightily at times. One of the biggest culprits is the offensive line, which has resembled a sieve for years.

Matthew Fairburn of SB Nation says it's time to address it with the selection of offensive guard Jonathan Cooper from North Carolina.

Cooper would provide stability on the interior of the group with Gabe Carimi, the first-round pick of Chicago two years ago, still trying to solidify his spot as a tackle.

At 310 pounds, the senior would give his new team a nice piece to work with.

Over at CBSSports.com, Rob Rang and Dane Brugler also mock the Bears to take help on the offensive line, but with a tackle.

Rang has Eric Fisher of Central Michigan headed to the Windy City while Brugler goes with Lane Johnson of Oklahoma.

At Drafttek.com, they also have 6'7'', 305-pound Fisher going the Bears.
