I’ve seen a lot of people talking about the draft, and potential HC candidates. What about free agency? From my understanding the Bears have a good amount of money to invest in the market this year. Who are your top free agents for the Bears to target? Is it possible they add a pass rusher via free agency due to a weaker draft class in that area this season?
Going into next year the biggest needs are:
QB?, C, DE, DT, CB (Because Jaylon hasn’t been extended yet), S.
As Cody Whitehair and Eddie Jackson are most likely going to be cut. As they are heavy contracts and serviceable rotational pieces at this point now unfortunately.
QB?: 100% depends on how well Justin plays next 7 games.
C: With that, Connor Williams is out there not likely as if you have a good C you keep them forever.
DE: Yannick, Brian Burns, Josh Allen, Chase Young… are available and could be picked up.
DT: Chris Jones is out there but not much else in terms of DTs that are better than what we have.
CB: Jaylon gets extended or tagged that goes away as a true need and more of get depth.
S: Not too many available in FA.
