Guard news???? Come on Coach, say it isn't so!

Just one of those little nuggets of info that might make those early draft picks a little easier.

Incumbent LG Josh Beekman has "far and away" outperformed free agent signee Frank Omiyale in training camp. Omiyale was signed away from the Panthers for $14M in February as an upgrade. Beekman has a "stranglehold" on the starting job. It's good news for Matt Forte, as Beekman was the Bears' strongest run-blocking lineman last season. I have never heard of too much talent on the OLine being a bad thing.

I did some footwork on Beekman for my '07 Steelers Draft Preview article and REALLY liked him alot. Apparently just took a couple seasons for the light bulb to turn on. I believe he's another in a growing line of solid Boston College O-line projects.
