Swift was saying that Eberflus wants his WLB and MLB interchangeable i never heard Flushing say that but if true we may see them switch around depending on match-up or just to mess with the offense

We can get some reps out of him at 3-tech but he's far from a starter. At least I hope he is.

Per OTC we still have $50mil in cap space so we're not done yet. 2023 Cap hits for the new guys: Edwards $5M Davis $7M Edmunds $14.7M. They do not have Demarcus Walker listed yet so figure worst case on a 2yr deal it's $7M. leaves us with $43M to spend and if we choose we can still cut players like Whitehair $10M, Patrick $4M, and Vildor $2.7M to free up another $16.7M. Maybe we sign one DE or a RT for 10-15M then we're probably done with big deals. However, I wouldn't be surprised if we're done with those and we start working the bargain bin in the $5-10M area like we did with Walker.

He's a DT in our scheme. Very short highlights but seems to offer a bit of versatility in alignment. I'd say he's similar to Justin Jones so figure those two are our backup DTs. At this point I'm just expecting another place holder DT, likely an older vet who has a higher floor for a year or two, versus taking a flier on a younger guy who might have more upside but still needs development. Then we go to the draft. Seems like a certainty that we'll be drafting 2 DTs.

We're going to like Nate Davis... a lot.

Got awful quiet around Dre'mont Jones news.

Help me get to the sideline so I can tell coach not to call that play again. Love it.

Whitehair has to be a cut designated post Jun 1st. That's a wash with the Davis deal (-10/+10).

At this point top needs: RT, DT, DE, DT, DE Secondary needs: C (they could stick with Patrick even if I don't want them to), RB, and CB We have 10 draft picks with 5 in the top 103 where you are most likely to find players who can contribute early in their career.

Never. If we don't sign one just plan on drafting one at 9. Given all the money that we spent so far it seems we walked away from over paying a RT and decided to fix other needs. I'm sure there will be a 2nd or maybe even 3rd tier RT on a 1yr deal brought in. Could even be a cheap 1yr for Reiff but rumor was that we were talking with Andre Dillard.

If the 4yr $72M is accurate that is DE money. I can't imagine Poles spending so big on LBs. Back in the draft when it was him or Roquan I always figured he'd be better around the LOS. No clue if they intend on doing some of that but I can say for sure that I'm confused.

Now you know why I rely on this board.

Seeing as the first replies to that tweet are "that's fake" and "you got me" I'd say it's all BS.

I'm thinking that's a fake but still searching for confirmation with no luck so far.

Did we just get Orlando Brown?

I'm certain Poles is laughing at that one.

Reportedly Bears were in heavy talks with Raiders for the 1st pick before we decided to go with the Panthers' offer. Left 'em at the altar and they got JimmyG on the rebound.

That's being all-in on Russell Wilson. We need to get people on base before we swing for the fences.

Yikes, I was thinking he was worth 3 / $45M. Of course I'm always low relative to the market but this kind of a deal for that type of player is what you have to avoid in FA. I don't know what the fall-back option will be.

Poles sticks to his budget!

Saw a rumor, no link, that Bears are interested in Eagle G Isaac Seumalo.

Go read Trench Warfare on Larry Borom and you'll feel better.
