Brian Urlacher left the Chicago Bears on less than amicable terms. Former GM Phil Emery basically ran him out of town with a less-than-ideal contract offer to play in 2013. Something the future Hall of Famer found insulting. To Urlacher's credit, he didn't do what so many other players have done...
The scouting combine has arrived, marking the first truly big even of the NFL offseason. Chicago Bears fans are excited like everybody else. It's a chance to see who among the 2019 college class may or may not stand out and how it will affect the overall structure of draft boards with two months...
Ryan Pace fielded a lot of questions regarding the kicker position ahead of the NFL scouting combine. While it may have gotten tedious at times, it had to be refreshing for him at the same time. When people are asking mostly about a kicker, it means the rest of the roster appears to be in pretty...
There were rumors out of Kansas City a few weeks ago that the team might be forced to move on from Justin Houston. It was a matter of figuring out how. Initial rumors now reveal the Chiefs' plan. Ian Rapoport reported that the team is engaged in trying to trade the veteran pass rusher in order to...
GM Ryan Pace met with the Chicago Bears media for the first time in a few weeks. Preparations continue to gather momentum with the NFL scouting combine set to kick off down in Indianapolis. This marks the latest big opportunity for him and his staff to get some work done on improving the roster....
The Chicago Bears don't look like a team that is in any position to be aggressive this 2019 offseason. They have a limited amount of salary cap space and several of their own free agents to sort out. So the idea of a bold run on the open market seems out. Worse still they have just five picks in...
This 2019 offseason may require a bit more finesse from Chicago Bears GM Ryan Pace than normal. His resources are severely lacking compared to previous seasons. Not only does he have only five total draft picks, but also a limited amount of cap space. This could mean he may be forced to scour the...
The Chicago Bears free agency plans got a much-needed boost on Tuesday when it was revealed that veteran right guard Kyle Long has agreed to some sort of restructure of his contract accord to Brad Briggs. It's uncertain as yet what the exact details are. Long was set to deliver an $8.5 million cap...
Fans have been asking every year how much the scouting combine really matters in the grand scheme of the NFL draft evaluation process. It's that time of year again. The combine is around the corner and the questions have resurfaced. So perhaps a good way to help explain how important (or...
Crazy as it sounds, no NFL draft round has given the Bears more persistent problems in recent years than the 3rd round. It's true. Of all seven rounds in the draft, that one has gone the longest without producing a Pro Bowler or All-Pro. First round? Mitch Trubisky. Second round? Cody Whitehair....
The Chicago Bears draft plans may have to be a bit more conservative than normal in 2019. Such is the price paid for making two big trades last year for Khalil Mack and Anthony Miller. GM Ryan Pace has no regrets about those two moves. Still, he knows the challenge ahead of him. Not only does his...
The Chicago Bears free agent outlook continues to take shape. Dion Sims and Cody Parkey are gone. Bobby Massie is re-signed. The team should have just over $11 million in cap space at present. That's not a long of room to maneuver, which leads one to believe more contract restructuring is still to...
