On Tuesday the Chicago Bears signed their second round draft choice, Mark Bradley, to a five year deal. The tall and lanky wide receiver out of Oklahoma was the 39th pick overall in this year's NFL draft. Bradley was actually a junior college transfer, arriving at Oklahoma after spending two seasons at Arkansas Pine-Bluff.

Mark Bradley is listed as 6'2'' and 198 pounds. In 25 games with the Sooners he caught 34 passes for 685 yards and 9 touchdowns. So basically, one out of every four catches was a touchdown!

Bradley is expected to develop into a dangerous weapon for 2nd year quarterback Rex Grossman. He is also expected to pay immediate dividends on specials teams. Playing both ways, he excelled at kick coverage and kick/punt returns while in college.
