retired after the 2010 Draft. During my time in Chicago we were able to draft 9 Pro Bowl players and win 3 Division Championships as well as 1 conference Championship."

Bears making the decision not to renew the contract of director of college scouting Greg Gabriel."
Retired? Not renewed? Same thing?
"With Gabriel leading the college scouting, the Bears hit on several players, including Pro Bowlers Lance Briggs, Tommie Harris, Devin Hester, Johnny Knox and Nathan Vasher. During Gabriel's first seven drafts with Chicago, the Bears selected 16 players who started at least one game for the Bears in 2008.
"But the club's drafts have recently come under scrutiny, after missing the marks on high draft picks such as running back Cedric Benson (first round 2005), receiver Mark Bradley (second round 2005), defensive tackle Dusty Dvoracek (third round 2006), defensive end Dan Bazuin (second round 2007) and linebacker Michael Okwo (third round 2007)."
