Free Agency news - 2020

[Discus fish salesman]

I appreciate the news but anyone can run a blog.

We don't have anywhere near the money to acquire cooks.

There's probably significantly cheaper options in FA and likely more productive. Cooks is an underperformer everywhere he goes. I'd pass on him.

Has anyone mentioned bears restructured Whitehairs contract? May have freed up about 3.5 million in space

Yes, most likely means we sign a starter somewhere at RG/SS/WR#2.

More than likely Safety since they can be had cheaper

Looks like they freed up $4.4mil.

Would love robby anderson but I don't think thats a real option. He wants 10m. We'll see what he gets.

My guess is Demarcus Robinson.

Didn't we re-sign Haha?

No. Just some random Twitter account that says he has sources

Incoming "Bears sign Clay Matthews" and we all drown in vomit.

Gurley & Roid-Boy released in LA

Wow. What a fast fall for Gurley from where he was just a few years ago.

Gurley & Roid-Boy released in LA

Clay had 8 sacks last year. That's more than Floyd the past 2 years combined, yet they sign him 10-13m..

 

[remydat]

We need a game changer now. Not 2-3 years from now.

None of the FA WRs are game changers IMO. Just decent role players at best. The game changers are going to be in the draft including in the 2nd round as there will be plenty of game changes available. Of course, this relies on Pace and Nagy being able to pick the right one.

Cornelius Lucas signed with Washington.

I would love to pair Cooks with Robinson and Miller but what would we even send their way??? Maybe one of our seconds and they give us a pick back?

 

[JesusHalasChrist]

I heard Pace offered a 3rd for Gurley but the Rams thought it had to be a prank call and released him.

 

[dabears70]

running backs need to start realizing that they're replaceable

They are but it's really too bad for them. They already have the shortest careers out of any other position but also take the biggest beating on their bodies and don't get paid enough for it. I've felt this way for RB's for a while. It really sucks for them.

Idk how much he will command but just cutting cp and shaheen gets us half way there. Get rid of Cohen and we are there pretty much 3 year 18 mil. Giving him 10 mil would just be reckless

Is Calvin Ridley already such a bust that the hope of him emerging as a #2 or #3 over?

 

[dabears70]

Based on our money situation sign a Safety and draft offense.

Lots of interesting WRs available, maybe you can get a deal.

Lots of good SS out there as well but not sure we can afford the guys at the top of this list but sure wish we could afford one.

T.Jefferson
V.Bell
T.Wilson
M.Burnett
A.Sendejo---Mitch would love this cause hasn't he hurt Mitch on two different occasions with one being a dirty and or late hit?

Calvin Ridley is in Atlanta but Riley Ridley hasn’t shown much. Given the bears situation hoping a fourth round pick actually develops isn’t the best idea in my opinion.
