    Chicago Bears general manager Jerry Angelo not only defended his offensive line's play during Sunday's 30-13 loss to the New Orleans Saints, but Angelo also praised the Bears' offseason efforts to improve the beleaguered unit.

    Jay Cutler was sacked a league-worst 52 times during the regular season last year, and he's already been sacked 11 times in two games this season. The Saints dropped him six times and hit him 16 times.

    "We did everything you could possibly do to that [offensive line] position," Angelo told the Bears' website. "Nobody did more than the Chicago Bears."

    The Bears drafted offensive tackle Gabe Carimi with their first pick, 29th overall. Carimi suffered a subluxation of the right kneecap Sunday and will be sidelined "a while," according to coach Lovie Smith.
