The Bears aren't expected to draft a quarterback this week, but it wouldn't be a surprise if they added a veteran via a final dip into the secondary free agent market. One they're believed to have considered is Josh McCown, who spent most of last season on injured reserve with the Panthers after a minor foot injury.
It would make sense if the Bears targeted a quarterback familiar with offensive coordinator Mike Martz's system, and McCown, 30, spent 2006 with the Lions under Martz. He has good size and athletic ability and could be a steadying influence worth evaluating in training camp.
McCown, who had a a tryout with the Saints earlier this offseason, learned Martz's offense well enough to get on the field as a wide receiver with the Lions.
Marc Bulger, another quarterback well-versed in Martz's offense, is seeking a new home after the Rams released him, but he'll first look for a place he can start instead of hold a clipboard.
