Billings was a NT tho, and everything I read earlier said that Gallimore was a NT too? If he's a 3T thats really good news, it's just new to me. Also, I'll take this moment to remember another Bear named Gallimore, Willie Gallimore who is an underrated HB for us who was really really good, and also the reason why my icon is a jersey with the number 28 - that was Gallimore's This was back when we all had jerseys with numbers if you remember the old board. A lot of us have been here a LONG time

If it's $5M + $5M Im Ok with it. I personally think he is deeply flawed as a LT, but if it's only $5M for depth I guess it's OK with me. I mean not that anyone but me cares about that, but still that's where Im at with it. I hope Benedet beats him out in camp, or we draft a rookie or something else happens.

Agree it looks like that. If Brisker doesn't get any offers, you think they bring him back for cheap one year deal?

This tells me they expect Ozzy back. They tried Braxton's bonus to game starts. It's a win win. Cheap option, Decker will be getting a big payday by what other players are getting. Braxton gets to play for a big payday next year. OL Coach literally told us this in an interview.

He will get Billings snaps. They will draft a DT to put Jarrett as the rotational player.

Gallimore is taking Billings spot who clearly lost a step or two and some strength.

The Bears came into today with starter needs at LT, DT, Edge, LB, and 2x Safety. At worst, they addressed LB and one Safety, have placeholders in at LT and DT, leaving Edge and the other Safety spots left to address. It feels like DT and Edge will be addressed in 2 of the top 3 picks. Safety by the 4th round.

A pretty low risk move. The Bears know exactly what they have and understand his health better than anyone.

Totally good with this. I think I saw it is 5M with another 5M in incentives based upon starts. Good move and Jones should have a ton of motivation to parlay a healthy offseason into a big season into a big pay day (and eventually a comp pick for the bears :))

Glad he is back to be that mentor or #2, but not sure Bagent gets traded unless Arizona really wants him. They did sign Menshaw.

Bears sign Braxton to a 1 year deal.

Case Keenum resigned. 2 yr $5.5 million. Evidently now Bagent is more expendable.

Looks like he will be backup 3T Makes sense with a few good NT in rounds 1 and 2. 6'2" 304 draft size Scouting report from Walterfootball.com Neville Gallimore Scouting Report By Charlie Campbell Strengths: Dangerous interior pass-rusher Quick off the ball Twitchy Athletic Able to penetrate the backfield consistently Natural three-technique Good pursuit defender Agile Good leverage to get underneath guarr Weaknesses: Gets tied up by length and mass Could have issues defending downhill runs coming straight at him Doesn’t have the length to be a 3-4 end Doesn’t have the size to be a nose tackle in 3-4 or 4-3 Limited to three-technique only Short arms – 32.88 inches

So I could be REALLY wrong about this, but I went to overthecap to look at Trent Williams' deal, and it's kind of shocking. *IF* the 49ers traded him to us, it looks like his cap number for us is ridiculously low. $4.7M for us this year, and $7.5M next year, because so much of his deal was guaranteed. 1) maybe I'm missing something major 2) SF would want something significant for him because theyre paying the bill for us. 3) Maybe he requires a new deal? Hard to say he was just the highest paid OL in the league when this deal got signed and there is more than one year left on it. 4) Maybe he wants a ring? Go here, and set for trade before June 1st, and you can see the cap savings, thats what we'd pay, and their dead money is what theyd have to pay. So for example, his cap number is $38M, and if they trade him, they have $34M of dead cap, and savings around $4M, which is what we'd have to pay. Now I dont get why overthecap is scoring it like this. This all includes $12M in roster bonuses ($750k per game) and there's a salary of $22M that's $34 of the $38, but overthecap clearly calculates that all as guaranteed, staying with SF. Interesting. https://overthecap.com/player/trent-williams/1466

at that price, I am too. $27M is insane.

I’m glad we lost out.

Decker just officially got released. That move makes too much sense given his knowledge of the offense and Ben Johnson. If they can get Decker for a reasonable price, while Center got cheaper, that would be great.

Damn Courtney Cronin, she just lost any remaining respect I had for her. I don't know why, out of the blue she had to start mentioning that she would bet that the Bears will get comp picks, when no one else in the league or media did or said anything that would lead you to that conclusion.

For what it's worth, Rich Eisen and others are reporting that we DID offer two firsts for Crosby, but the Raven's two firsts were better. I don't think we can assume that the Bears werent interested in signing Crosby or Linderbaum, but they had a price they wouldnt exceed and the market beat them.

We didn't get the comp pick. The list is out.

Meanwhile in Detroit https://www.profootballrumors.com/2026/03/lions-to-sign-ol-larry-borom#ref=home

I just saw where Bush Cap hit will only be 1.5 mil this year, if that pundits post is correct.

For the 27 mil a year, we got Bush, Bryant, Galimore and Bradbury. Like you said we just didn't have the cap space to compete for Tyler.

I saw that. Also saw where Bryant first year cap hit is 6 mil and 4 mil for the DT. Never saw the Bush cost yet.

The Giants signed Edmunds for more than the Bears did on Bush.
