The Bears selected Pickens with the 64th pick in the 2023 draft, so they made a solid investment in addressing their interior defensive line. In past years, Chicago struggled with interior defense, both in terms of stopping the run and pressuring opposing quarterbacks. In the short term, Pickens may find himself competing with free-agent addition Andrew Billings, who is a six year veteran. However, if Pickens lives up to his draft capital early on, he could take the lead in what will likely be a defensive line rotation.
