CHICAGO -- Former Kansas State linebacker Arthur Brown will make an official pre-draft visit to the Chicago Bears early this week, according to a league source.

Brown, the 2012 Big 12's Defensive Player of the Year, is scheduled to be in the Chicagoland area on Monday and Tuesday to meet with the team.

ESPN Insider Mel Kiper Jr. projected the San Diego Chargers selecting Brown in the second round at No. 45 overall in his latest mock draft, although several publications list Brown as a potential late-first-round choice.
