Free Agency Talk & Rumors - Bears get Dalman 3/$42M, Josh Allen is RICH ($330M contract), DK is a Steeler, Mack back to LAC

Chase Young on a prove it deal would be okay. But they better be drafting a DE too.

Need a vet and a rookie. Agree

I have heard the same stuff from others. He’s not an AllPro center by any means. An improvement yes. But I still would draft a center this year if a good one was available in a later round. Just to develop one

Especially since it's really only a 2 year deal for Dalman so yes we need to draft C.

Ok just go trade a 3rd for Hendrickson and call it a day.

Falcons fan: I’ve watched him every game since he was drafted. He can’t snap the ball to the QB. Hes missed a ton of games and he’s a below average pass blocker. There was 0 dropoff from him to our backup for 8 games this past season and we literally improved in pass protection without him

Bullshit! The Falcons don’t have any fans.

I think Ryan Poles, Ben Johnson, and the Bears deserve an insane amount of credit. Before the NFL Draft, Chicago has already added Joe Thuney, Jonah Jackson, and now the premier center available, Drew Dalman. That is how you instantly upgrade an OL that allowed 68 sacks last season.

LT Braxton Jones LG Joe Thuney C Drew Dalman RG Jonah Jackson RT Darnell Wright Curious to see what the plan is at LT the rest of the offseason, Ryan Poles isn't going to hand the job to Braxton. [contains quote post or other embedded content]

Drew Dalman to the Bears is so huge for the development of Caleb Williams. Having a veteran center is such an underrated quality for a young QB.

Did Chase Young actually re-sign with NO or was that fan tweet full of shit?

He did not. Still a free agent

@BaBaBlacksheep That's a @zack54attack question.

 

[ZOMBIE@CTESPN]

As the Bears continue to ignore defense.

The draft is where dl should be focused on lots of great choices there. So be ready for drafting a rb lol

@BaBaBlacksheep That's a @zack54attack question.

Who is that?

Well Poles revamped the entire middle of the OL. Thank god he did something finally

It's not like he hasn't tried to add to the oline. Little of his moves have panned out so far but the idea that he hasn't attempted to fix oline problems is a myth. He drafted one the first time he had a 1st round pick.

Hey Mods is it possible to add Bluesky to our media-allowed images? Twitter being up and down today, who knows if that platform will just blow up any time soon. Thanks.

It's up to the software that formats the site to add it to their list of embedded links. If you want to join me in spamming them requests....

...they still have not even updated Twitter.com to X.com sooo..........

Has he drafted a center/guard in his entire time here?

You’re free to ignore c for a few years rn time to focus on dl

Sure but they have been minimal investments outside of Wright and Nate Davis which was a horrendous miss.

Getting Coleman and Sheldon was basically dumpster diving. Same for that last center we had.

 

[HeHateMe]

Especially since it's really only a 2 year deal for Dalman so yes we need to draft C.

Why?
