He set up his contract where Glennon will be dumped after year 1. Clear rental.
Also there was some potential with Glennon not getting tons of PT and coming off his rookie contract so the logic adds up. With that said, Bears needed to sign a QB if not Glennon then who? This class was weak af. Pace aigned the consensus "best" qb to what would be a one yr deal.... Furthermore, even before Glennon plays a down Pace sells the farm to move up and draft Trubisky which tells everyone Pace never viewed Glennon as the answer.

Someone will say they should have signed Hoyer, but using the same 20/20 hindsight vision everyone would have known they were in the QB market with a depth chart of Hoyer & Sanchez. That trade up for Trubisky might get more expensive, the Browns might take him outright #1, maybe competition for the #2 pick gets a bit stiffer. The landscape changes quite a bit if we have known NFL retreads on the team as opposed to Glennon who was an unknown.
