adam Posted July 26, 2023 Report Share Posted July 26, 2023 After the Kmet extension, $3.6M got applied to the 2023 cap, bringing the Bears cap space down to $28.4M, still the highest available cap in the NFL. The next 4 teams are the Cards with $25.9M, Jets with $23.6M, Panthers with $20.6M, and Cowboys with $19.6M. So only 2 teams over $25M and 4 over $20M left. The Bears could take on a vet for a $7.5M cap hit this year and still have the 3rd biggest cap. Poles has the Bears in a great position as they can still spend and save some to rollover for next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ASHKUM BEAR Posted July 26, 2023 Report Share Posted July 26, 2023 A few guys need to prove it, but by mid-season we have Jaylon, Mooney, and Claypool as candidates. Would love to see one of the WRs take hold and never let up. Claypool would be ideal since he is a athletic freak and it is hard to find those players.

Marvin Harrison Jr will out there, but it would be nice not to need him in case trade scenarios are out there to make us better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We really need Carolina to suck this year and end up in the bottom 3. I don't know how many teams would move away from picking Harrison to move to something a few picks later and only pick up #32 in 2024.

Stinger226 Posted July 27, 2023 Report Share Posted July 27, 2023 If the offense goes well and the top 3 Wrs all contribute, I think our first pick will be a pass rusher. Carolina does not look like a top 3 bad team. I think they end up 7-10. If we are successful, we will be picking above 20. Not sure those clicks get us to top 3. Now if Claypool busts out , then maybe that changes but we will still need a edge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be wonderful if a current guy emerges. I'm already hearing QB and WR are deep in next year's draft class. Hopefully, edge is in that category too...
