Grading Chicago's Selection of Nathan Enderle in 2011 NFL Draft

They used their first-round pick on Wisconsin OT Gabe Carimi, and they would eventually use a fifth-round pick on Idaho QB Nathan Enderle.
Unless the Bears are suddenly letting the fans run the show, my guess is that the Enderle pick is not an "or else" gesture towards Jay Cutler. I nevertheless think it's an important pick. As much as Carimi is going to help fix Chicago's O-line, Cutler will still be taking his life in his hands every time he drops back to pass. Therefore, depth at the QB position is vital.
