Drafting Jalen Carter was a genius move for the Eagles, but he would not have worked for the Bears because they lack veteran defensive leadership.

I actually think that it was genius for the Eagles to take [Jalen Carter]. And the Bears did not take him because everything we've heard about him, he needs veteran leadership around him. The Bears do not have that. The Eagles have the opposite. They have a lot of great defensive players, a lot of older Fletcher Cox, like a lot of guys that will help him.

Carter was a finalist for DROY on the Eagles, while the Bears defense improved significantly later in the year after acquiring Montez Sweat, suggesting Big Cat's assessment of their respective needs was fair.
