Nick Roach drawing strong interest
Nick Roach - LB - Chicago Bears
March 11, 2013 - 9:20 AM ET

The Chicago Sun-Times reports the number of teams interested in free agent LB Nick Roach is "approaching double digits."

Roach is not an exceptional talent, but is a versatile one, capable of playing both strong-side and middle linebacker. He holds his own against both the run and the pass, and won't turn 28 until June. If Roach comes off the market quickly after the start of free agency, there will be an added urgency for the Bears to figure something out with Brian Urlacher.
