Chicago Bears linebacker Roquan Smith looked pretty good during his rookie season. The 21 year old looks like he's definitely going to be a big piece of the Bears future and general manager Ryan Pace absolutely loves him«What's awesome about him is you can't really put a ceiling on him,» Pace told ChicagoBears.com, «not only because of his physical traits but more importantly his football makeup—like how good a teammate he is, how passionate he is about the game and his football intelligence. When you combine the physical traits with the football makeup, that's where it's hard to put a ceiling on this player.» Pace saw improvement from Smith throughout the season and really loved two aspects of his game. «His two best traits are instincts and speed, and you can tell when a player's getting comfortable just being in the NFL, those things showcase even more,» Pace said. «So as the season progressed, every game you saw him reacting faster and playing faster, and that's just going to continue.»
