Chicago Bears and Minnesota Vikings Eye Top Pass Rusher Dallas Turner Ahead of NFL Draft

The Bears and Vikings are considering Alabama's Dallas Turner, a highly touted edge rusher, as a potential pick in the upcoming NFL draft.

Dallas Turner, dubbed the 'clear No. 1 edge rusher' by ESPN's Mel Kiper, has official pre-draft visits scheduled with the Bears and Vikings.
The Bears, holding the No. 9 overall pick, view Turner as a perfect fit for their defensive scheme, emphasizing the importance of a strong pass rush.
Minnesota Vikings, with picks No. 11 and 23, are also showing interest in Turner but are primarily focused on acquiring a top quarterback in the draft.
Turner's impressive combine performance, featuring a 4.46-second 40-yard dash and an 83-inch wingspan, has solidified his status as a top defensive prospect.
Both teams face competition for Turner, with the Falcons predicted to select him at No. 8, making his availability uncertain for the Bears and Vikings.
