Another concern is the screen is not resting on the bottom of the cooler and the bazooka screen is pretty rigid and difficult to get it to stay at the bottom. Will the grain bed weigh it down enough to get it to rest at the bottom? Any suggestions?

Use a length of hose to get the screen to lay however you want. You're dealing with a siphon, so having a hump in the middle from the screen on the bottom of the cooler, up and out the side, and then down into a BK means it will pull out everything until air gets into your screen. This is assuming a gravity fed MT.
