Charles would be a interesting compliment to Howard and since we dont have any wideouts we might as well go run heavy LOL.

on the current available list are we chasing this week

TWO of Bouje, Johnson,and Gilmore at CB

Two of Jefferson ,Hyde,Mcdonald,Chruch, or Cyprien at Safety

One or Two of Whitworth,Reiff,or Wagner at Tackle

with no Alshon do we pay Pryor, Garcon, or jackson that 12 million we were willing to offer him ?

I believe the rams are expected to tag Johnson again.

We really can't go wrong with any of those guys. Hyde might be the most underrated player in the class. He did everything in that secondary very well.

Revis is going to be released. This past season was really his only bad season. Some people with the jets were saying that it might be because of a hamstring injury he had. Assuming he plays at a high level again he's perfect for the system. Wouldn't hurt to work him out at least.

Pace is waiting for the market to confrim what he already fears: the price Alshon commands is too high (for Bears).

The bears are one of the likely spots for Mike Glennon to land, reportedly

Report: Patriots planning to release Vollmer (via http://thesco.re/theScore_App )
http://www.thescore.com/news/1244106

Didn't realize he missed the entire season.

Still it'd be nice to bring him in on a friendly deal. He's one of the best when healthy

Broncos won't pickup the option on Okung. He's overrated imo but would still be a big upgrade. Will probably take a look at him

Brandon cooks is on the market will most likely be traded. We could use him but it sounds like the titans and eagles are willing to give up a first for him so we shouldn't be in the running.

Brandon Marshall is the best WR on the market and we need a WR. I think we should consider bringing him back.

I'm all in on Tyrod if the Bills release him.

27, proven playmaker and smart decision maker.

/4: While many in the NFL believe that Mike Glennon will sign with the Bears, the Jets plan on making a big push for him. - Tony Pauline
Read more at http://walterfootball.com/nflrumors/freeagency#bJMEWH1Jh0sgBcTF.99

I think the plan is to go with Glennon as the starter (assuming we don't land Jimmy) and then make a big push for one of the QBs in next years draft, specifically Darnold or Rosen

Wow...didn't realize that was a possibility.

Imo, who ever the Bears get via FA at QB they still better draft a QB.

I'd be fine with paying big money for Taylor and getting a QB later in the draft (5th or later). If we go with Glennon, then 3rd round would be fine with me.

I've read the Bears are interested in Kayaa.

No clue who that is. Any scouting reports on him?

Glennon reportedly turned down an offer to be the highest paid backup

I'd rather take a QB at #3 over paying Glennon $14M a year.

Report: Glennon expected to receive contract worth $14M-15M per year (via http://thesco.re/theScore_App )
http://www.thescore.com/news/1247205

Hopefully the bears are no longer the favorite to land him.

Also I highly doubt he gets that money. He's clearly a backup and when he had the opportunity to start he was very underwhelming
