Who do you want to see claimed from waivers?

[BaBaBlacksheep]

I'm not sure you can have too many projects on a roster. At some point you have to have serviceable players to help the other players around them. This is about Fields right now. Not a long shot, Leatherwood.

He can't hack it at tackle in the NFL. Maybe he can be a guard, but we don't need another project on the oline.

I mean that’s pretty much what you get at this time of year. ?‍

Some guys to shore up some depth

CB, Justin Coleman - plenty of experience to step in if we struggle to find an answer at outside corner

LB, Kevin Pierre Louis - familiar fave who played well in his lone year here.

WR, Preston Williams - big bodied target who flashed potential in Miami when they were tanking for Tua. Could be a true redzone target.

DT, Armon Watts - DT with 5 sacks last year. I dont see why not!

WR, Tyler Johnson - had some nice highlight plays for Tampa Bay.

you can occasionally find some surprise cuts that can improve a position...

ala Josh Sitton

 

[Les Grossman]

I think expectations should be tempered. It’s very unlikely that the Bears are gonna sign someone to start at a position that’s unfamiliar with the systems.

No way do they pick up a starting OL, sorry better get used to Mustipher.

Poles talked the big game about this opportunity so it has people expecting a lot of moves. Generally speaking you’re correct but this is not a normal year.

They signed Reiff later in camp for 12.5 million....I think if they can improve the team they will do it

but the point I’m making is that camp is over. That’s valuable time to learn the system and team

The team isn’t going to remain frozen in time. They will have to sign people due to injuries. If the right player is available they will sign him.

is this this the one ?

Tyler Johnson Stats & Fantasy Ranking - PlayerProfiler​

https://www.playerprofiler.com › nfl › tyler-johnson


He had a disappointing performance at the combine where he had his hand size measured at 9” exactly, but unfortunately, his 40-yard dash was timed at 4.70.

How fast did he jump out of a pool?

 

[Spitta Andretti]

I know nothing about Leatherwood other than media and fan reports…. But id rather see a high upside guy with talent and let this staff coach. If he has physical talent (which I’m assuming be does drafted that high) I’d love to see the staff coach em up for a year and see what happens. Now is the time in the rebuild for big swings IMO.

Reading Raider fans takes and Leatherwood was also a pre snap and during the play penalty machine

LOL. What are “people” expecting?

 

[BaBaBlacksheep]

WR's
deon cain
juwann winfree
lynn bowden

DT's
john marshall

CB's
olaijah griffin
elijah hamilton
josh jackson (reclamation project?)

Winfree seems like a possible target. Getsy would know him. Has a little NFL experience but falls in the young and needs a chance bucket. Rodgers supposedly liked him.

Yes but I’m saying that these cuts and signings are from the bottom of the roster, not the top

 

[The Doctor]

WR Kendric Pryor. Had a nice preseason with Bengals. Plus he fits the mold that Poles seems to be looking for -- young with good upside. He's also a local kid from Hazel Crest.

Why, everything indicated Patrick would likely be back for the opener and I haven't heard that that has changed.

Generally yes, but I did point out an example of a team cutting a vet due to $ at the end of camp that can help other teams. It happens. Not always but it does. I don’t think they would be above signing a player simply because they haven’t learned the playbook yet.

This is the only reasonable list I’ve seen in this thread. Specifically, I think Justin Coleman at CB and Armon Watts at DT would be significant upgrades over the guys the Bears currently have as depth at those positions.

 

[Marley's Liberality]

I would like to see Chazz Suratt on the practice squad to see if he is the type of player Eberflus could make use of. He's not the type of LB you can just place in the same spot each snap but it seems like those type of guys are starting to become popular in the league

 

[gwharris2254]

As someone said or implied earlier, developmental players, someone with a higher ceiling than players we had at our camp will probably land on our PS. Rarely will one find a 'Josh Sitton' sittin there ( as far as new faces go )

 

[Aquineas]

I would like to see them get some help for the defensive line. I'd be surprised if this defense wasn't in the bottom third of the league for rushing yards per attempt and near the top of the league for injuries if they're counting on their safeties and corners to make all those stops.
