Chicago Bears general manager Jerry Angelo and coach Lovie Smith resisted to even hint at the notion of Major Wright opening the 2010 season as the Bears starting free safety.

Their reluctance to do so said it all — that Wright, the former Florida standout and Chicago’s top pick in the draft — is definitely in the mix to start as a rookie.

“To say he’s gonna come in and start, I can’t say that,” Angelo said.

Shortly before, Smith played the downplay game, too.

“You hate to talk about rookies being one of the starters right away, but I think when you pick a player … we’re expecting big things from him,” Smith said. “But there’s a long way to go before you put a rookie in a starting lineup.”
