That doesn't surprise me with a young CB in a base zone defense with an anemic pass rush

Love Kyler. Don’t like that he’s missed significant time every year.

Are you literally incapable of acknowledging anything good without pissing in the pool?

I said it when Allen was hired. Gordon has a real shot at a breakout season with his ability and Allen's way of deploying that position. He needs to stay healthy.

Daniel could depress a bride on her wedding day.
(It'd be easy to say that his own wife fits that description, but I'm going to make this reference refer to others)

Also has been one of my arguments for Nick Emmanwori. I think the two of them could be fun with the aggressive Allen defense that has been described.

Cause he's one of the best nickels in the league, if not the best, and figures to flourish in Dennis Allen's system.

Still like a great player. He probably gets this season to to show he can stop being a fucking bonehead then he gets a nice payday as well

This defense figures to play to his strengths a lot more as well. More man/press coverage and Jaylon Johnson shadowing the other team's best receiver.
That said, I think the Kyler Gordon deal (alongside Jaylon's deal) shuts the door on Tyrique being here long-term either way. Hope he plays will in the meantime though.

Care to explain then why tyrique stevenson has a much better one yet he sucks?
I still like the deal because of what kyler does well, but there is a lot left to be desired in pass coverage for him.

Tyrique wasnt even bad last year. He just had some boneheaded maturity issues.
The guy had a lower completion percentage against and lower passer rating against than jaylon johnson and was far and away our most targeted defender. I'd say if you lead in both categories yet get targeted like 30 times more than both jaylon and kyler you are doing something right.
As you mentioned, Al Harris and DA running a man scheme should let tyrique really shine.
Daniel is just a moron who hates every bears player yet posts on here every day.

Essentially what is a 2 year deal is not preventing the bears from re-signing another cornerback that is in year 3 this season.
They could literally cut kyler and pay tyrique if kyler is hurt or declines.

To the second paragraph, I think we can be assured that it would take a lot to have three CBs on extensions with big bucks attached. The team has good depth at CB, and can keep drafting to keep the stable full. Stevenson and anyone else in the position group will likely be allowed to walk, and start adding to the pool of players that generate comp picks.
The only way I see Stevenson receiving a competitive offer from Poles would be if Johnson takes a big dive and he looks to be the heir apparent.

They still have stevenson for two more years.
If he plays well they likely are probably not letting him walk, not with the receiving threats in this division. We have it good at corner right now but people forget how bad it was for us at one point. There are plenty of teams in the division(like the lions) who were scrambling to fix the position group.
I'd be surprised if they let him walk IF he does play well. If he's more of the same then yes, he's likely gone in FA

Good extension for a good, young player. Good decision on which young corner to keep between him and 29.
Now, it’s win-win. If 29 is consistently inconsistent as has been his career, you can move on and let someone else overpay him to be their new CB2 the way the market is going where it pays to be mid.
If he gets his head out of his ass and can learn to be consistently above average to good, you can deal him.

Or they can cut kyler if he doesnt live up to his contract in year 3 and pay stevenson.
There are a lot of options on the table. We still have stevenson for 2 years, he's not going anywhere soon.
This likely more-so signals that brisker may be seeing his last year in chicago unless he stays healthy and balls out.
