adam Posted February 3, 2020 Report Share Posted February 3, 2020 So we can finally start looking hard at the offseason. 1. February 24th - March 2nd - NFL Combine: we should have a good idea how the players will be slotted after the combine and some pro days. Mock drafts on fire. 2. March 16th - Legal tampering period: We will see a flurry of activity starting around this date as players start locking in deals with teams, will the Bears sign a QB? Is Mike Glennon available? 3. March 18th - The official first day of the league year and the official Start to Free Agency. All the official announcements start on the first wave of free agent signings; teams have to exercise options by 4pm. 4. March 29th - April 1st - Annual League Meeting 5. April 1st - April 22nd - The second wave of Free Agency, this normally starts in early to mid-April as players start to get desperate and want to get on a team before the draft. 6. April 16th - My guess on when they will release the 2020 schedule like they did last year. It will be nice to know when we have our opponents and when we get our bye. 7. April 20th - Offseason Workout Programs begin 8. April 23rd - 25th - NFL Draft, We will see what Pace has up his sleeve with the 2x 2nd rounders. My belief is he keeps one and trades down with the other. Will he draft a QB? 9. UDFA signings: April 25th-27th (UDFAs start to get linked to teams a few days after the draft. This is starting to become an important part of team building) 10. Teams can sign XFL players: April 27th (This will be an interesting twist to the offseason) 11. April 27th - May 31st - Post-draft Free Agency: (This is the 3rd wave of free agency as players and teams start to get linked before 12. May 1st-4th/8th-11th - First Rookie Minicamp 13. May 4th - Deadline for clubs to exercise Fifth-Year options (Trubisky) 14. May 19th - 20th: Spring League Meeting 15. June 1st - Deadline for June 1st cuts 16. June 1st - August 11th - Last wave of free agency after June 1st cuts 17. Mid-July - Training Camp 18. August 13th-17th - First Preseason Game, the first game for Nagy to hold out all starters 19. September 5th - Rosters reduced to 53. 20. September 6th - Players claimed off waivers and teams establish their 10-man Practice Squads. 21. September 10th - The regular season begins with the Bears quest to go 19-0! GO BEARS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
