If we can get Kampman on a 2-year or 3-year deal and his knee is OK, we could finally have some pass pressure from the front 4. He wouldn't be a long-term solution like Gaines Adams was supposed to be, but he could have a couple of seasons of high-level play left in him, and he'd make it less urgent for Henry Melton and Jarron Gilbert to contribute right away. Which is good, since they were both incredibly raw coming out of college.

 

Green Bay says they want to make him an offer, but he's very limited in their new 3-4 scheme, and unless they want to start using a lot more 4-3 looks, they're not going to be able to play him where he's effective. I read somewhere that he nearly went to Minnesota a few years ago, so obviously he's not averse to switching teams in-division. I'd be very OK with it if Angelo wanted to make a move for Kampman.

It seems like the Bears might look at making a big splash or two on the defensive side of the ball and I'd be all about that. Peppers or Kapman, plus a safety signing would be huge huge upgrades for the Bears.
