                .main_content_well {font-size:11px;}            LAKE FOREST, Ill. – The Bears will have all nine of their 2007 draft picks on the field Friday when they open training camp with a 3 p.m. practice at Olivet Nazarene University.
           
Dan Bazuin was selected by the Bears in the second round of the NFL Draft.Defensive end Dan Bazuin, the team’s lone remaining unsigned pick, agreed to a four-year contract Wednesday, one day before the NFC champions head to Bourbonnais. 
  The Bears selected Bazuin in the second round of the draft (62nd overall). A productive four-year starter at Central Michigan, the 6-3, 260-pounder plays with an abundance of energy and effort.
  Last season as a senior, Bazuin registered 15 tackles for loss, 10½ sacks, four forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries, one of which he returned 32 yards for a touchdown at Toledo. In January, he was named Defensive MVP of the East-West Shrine Game after recording 2½ sacks.
  “That initially gets your attention, having that many sacks, that many tackles for loss,” coach Lovie Smith said during the offseason. “Then you meet him and he’s a good athlete. All of those things made us like him.”
  Bazuin was sidelined throughout much of the Bears’ offseason program after injuring his knee during the rookie minicamp in early May. But he returned for the final two weeks of OTA workouts in June and has been cleared to participate in training camp.
