Louis Riddick - "Remember....the salary cap is RISING, which means salaries are going to RISE. As they should. That’s how it is supposed to work. So can we all stop gasping at what we think some players should/should not get paid? Let’s see how they play before casting final judgement."

Aaron Leming - "Over the cap currently has the #Bears at $16M in cap space. That counts Skrine's $3.66M cap hit & Braunecker's $1M.

Will need to see Davis' overall hit but would guess they'll be sitting around $14M after all three moves today."

14 mil for bell

Former Vikings’ DT Sheldon Richardson intends to sign a three-year deal with the Cleveland Browns when free agency opens Wednesday, a source tells ESPN.

Cleveland’s opening-day front four now expected to be DE Myles Garrett, DT Larry Ogunjobi, Richardson and DE Emmanuel Ogbah.

Don't forget about O.Vernon who's easily a starter opposite M.Garrett.

Field Yates - "Source: the Bears have created $11M of cap space by converting $13M of Khalil Mack's base salary & roster bonus into a signing bonus. Chicago positioning itself to make moves if desired..."

Mike Garafolo -"The outside CB market was slow to get off the ground yesterday but should pick up soon. The #Eagles still want Ronald Darby back but other teams in the mix. The #Colts' Pierre Desir has significant interest and should cash in after his one-year prove-it deal last year."

Correct me if I’m wrong does this mean the 13m becomes spread out over the remaining 5 years of his contract?

Ton of people asking about Le'Veon Bell to the #Bears. Is it possible they have cleared cap space to invest in a wide receiver?

You don’t clear $11M in space just to do it. Obviously Ryan Pace is up to something...

I think Bears are moving on Le’Veon Bell or Earl Thomas. And I have texted every single person I know in the league. But this time of year, nobody responds.
