Still waiting on McDonald's and Ball's contracts, but I am impressed that we got Foster on a league minimum deal. Ray McDonald's 1-year contract with #Bears included no guaranteed money. Base value is $1.05M. Another $450K available in incentives. Alan Ball 2015: $1 million signing bonus, $1.95 million base salary, $50,000 workout bonus Total: $3 million Cap figure: $3 million Mason Foster 2015: $80,000 signing bonus, $745,000 base salary Total: $825,000 Cap figure: $665,000 (minimum salary benefit) Ray McDonald 2015: $870,000 base salary, $50,000 roster bonus, $30,000 workout bonus, $100,000 in per-game roster bonuses, $450,000 in not …

If a player decides to hold out a entire season, what is his status the following season? Does he still owe the team work for the previous year? Does it matter how many years of service? Also does it matter if it's the final year of a contract? Gurus needed!:

I saw someone point out that this could be a move that benefits both team and player. We have Terrell Smith who is a little stickier in man coverage than Stevenson, but less good at tackling around the LOS. Given the new defensive scheme is going to rely on man on the outside more often and our lack of depth at safety this could be a win win. I could see Stevenson playing the role Brisker has played for us and doing it well.

http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slug=ms-t...o&type=lgns 14. Chicago Bears – Adrian Peterson. "Let me get this straight," general manager Jerry Angelo says. "You mean I can end this Cedric Benson charade and draft the other Adrian Peterson?" When coach Lovie Smith nods yes, Angelo launches into a 30-second spurt of Dr. Evil-style laughter. Benson then bursts into the war room, screaming "I knew you guys were out to get me."

He’s on the trade block, injury prone, and has a big contract. I’d call the Rams and offer a 4th, whatever salary split makes sense, and see how bad they want to dump him.

Any chance someone could burn a copy of the game on DVD? I'll pay for shipping, materials and your time. What a game.

Patterson's tweet indicates the Bears have informed him he is not coming back.

I love this signing, instant upgrade to Special Teams and can take the top off the defense. He will replace Bellamy, White production.

This is a surprise signing for me. It definitely gives Nagy some options when calling plays. https://twitter.com/AdamSchefter/status/1105609284795154433

,When I say core,I don't mean blue chip,I m talking about people they figure to be here for at least 3 years or are under contract. What they see as roster value. Caleb Williams and Tyson Bagent Swift, Johnson Moore, Odunze, Zaccheaus Kmet and Smythe Jones, Kiran A,, Wright, Thuney, Dalman, Jackson, Murray, Stromberg, Jordon McFadden Byard, Brisker, Hicks, Owens, Travis Moore Gordon, JJ , Stevenson, Smith, Blackwell , Edwards, Edmunds, Sewell, Ogbongbemiga, Swayze Bozeman Booker, Sweat, Odeyingbo, Billings, Cris Williams, Johnathan Ford, Jarrett, Dexter, Pickens , Daniel Hardy Once we have the draft this will chang…

With all the criticize Pace has gotten lately, I still think he has given us our core for the future. Although his first round picks have had questions due to injuries, he has drafted well outside of that round. Here is my list of who I think our core will be going forward. (not in any particular order)(draft and FAs) Trubisky Shaheen Whitehair Howard Cohen Floyd Hicks Goldman Trevathan (2018 he will be 28) Bullard (has taken a step forward this year and will have a breakout season next year) N. Kwiat ( has grown as a pass defender) with Freeman gone will take over at one of the spots at ILB Amos (is one of the highest rated Ss this…

So looking at the current roster and contracts, the Bears have a very solid core, and look to add 5-6 more high end pieces to it this offseason. If they trade a top pick, it will be even more. Right now I am going to assume they pick up 5 impact players: Impact draft picks: 3 (2x 1st rounders, 3rd rounder) Expected bigger FA acquisitions: 2 So if the Bears run it back with Fields on his 4th year, here is where I think they need to upgrade or fill in the core of the team (top 35). The bottom 20 of the roster are very fluid, and would be filled with 4th Round to UDFA and 1-year vet deals. On offense, Center, WR2/3, and TE2 are the most glaring …

Well, this guy has shown that he can tackle. However, he is FAAAR from replacing Vasher in the lineup. The dude has no ball skills and cannot make the simplest of interceptions. Ryan made several looping throws that should have been easily picked off if the CB made a better adjustment to the ball. It was very frustrating to watch. We need our boys back. As much as we've been hearing from Lovie about our backup CBs, these dudes didn't impress at all.
