3 hours ago3 hr No. oregonliveOregon defensive tackle Bear Alexander to return in 2026Oregon will have a key piece back on its interior defensive line in 2026.
3 hours ago3 hr No. The magic of NIL, I would think Bear would have a good chance to be drafted in the middle rounds.
3 hours ago3 hr No. This is good, but surprising, news. He played well enough to improve his NFL rating, but maybe another year will have a greater impact on where he'll go in the draft. Of course, there could be other legitimate reasons, like complete his degree or just learning more about life. Whatever his purpose, this is good news all around.

2 hours ago2 hr Moderator No. Very good news. When Bear was on, he dominated the middle. Another year in DL's (and presumably, Hampton's) system and he's a second to third round pick. No longer a head case, he'll be head of the pack.Hoping for more return dominoes to fall, like Theinemen, Tuioti and Matayo.I think Washington is gone, but he will be a round 1 or 2 pick.

1 hour ago1 hr No. When I consider the motivation people have for an action they take I look for the obvious. I believe Bear is having fun being where he is doing what he’s doing. Why trade what he has for the uncertainty of whatever happens next?
