Bit ignorant to recent Barkley play, but I heard his stats and effectiveness went down dramatically after his injury and he wasn't the game changer he once was. Is this perception incorrect? Would it be better to go after someone like Jacobs or Eckler if Bears wanted to go that route?

Both those guys had the same issue, and eckler looked super slow last year.

The giants had arguably the worst oline in the league I think? The rookie they took was trash and evan neal is a bust

Does the legal tampering period start at 12 eastern or central?

12 eastern but obviously we have to wait an hour for news. Sucks being a central time zone fan. Always have to tell my east coast friends not to text me

I'm in the eastern time zone. It kinda sucks. Games are on so fucking late.

Just don’t say that in Buffalo

Or KC. How in the world are they re-signing Jones?!?

And they’ll still have money to spare and make the playoffs. Its stupid

Good point. I definitely didn't take into consideration the line issues Giants had with his loss in production (never watch them.... or the Chargers/Raiders).

I do like the appeal of having a pass catching RB threat such as Barkley. Regardless of who the QB is. Been a while since the Bears had something like that (Forte-ish).

Because they have cap space because a lot of their good players are draft picks? lol

Didnt they just cut like 4 starters?

They are currently 5 million over the cap with Draft picks still to sign

 

[hebs]

They will end up using that pick to replace him though lol

I doubt it will be the first round pick they trade.

Yep and still 14 million over. By the start of the season they will have extra money and still in the playoff hunt. Cap hell is made up. Spend all you got

The Saints started the offseason 80 million over lol. Its a crock

I would expect Poles to let the first wave off FA to come off the board. FA typically doesn’t give you a return on investment anyway. Better to stick to your guns and find value on positions that are saturated like safety.

Not my first choice(Hunter), but id still love wilkins, especially if its a 3 year deal but I'm expecting 4-5 at 25+ a year.

Just hope its not the Lions who sign him.
