Holy crap: I will be shocked if this happens. This definitely means Floyd, Shaheen, and Braunecker are gone.

Surprised he just got another 1yr deal worth $4mil with $2.5 guaranteed. Back with his old HC too. https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/cowboys/2020/03/19/dallas-cowboys-ha-ha-clinton-dix-sign-nfl-free-agency/2882362001/

Artie Burns, former 1st round pick, signs a one-year deal with Bears:

Completely fine with this move and would be comfortable with him starting, though I assume they give him some competition in the draft. He made some mistakes early in the year, but seemed better when he got reps near the end of the year.

Another former first rounder signed, mainly a St player but can play Edge too.

https://www.thephinsider.com/2020/3/23/21191720/phinsider-question-of-the-day-w-live-thread-general-discussion-03-23-2020 Just wasting time tonight and ran across this. Don't even know what to make of the posts. 70 of them just talking about replacing a switch on a garbage disposal. They all most go back years. I mean, there are so many ways to make a joke, but they also seem to be kinda all on the same page. I have just never seen a back and forth like that. A kinder gentler discourse. I assume they talk about football sometimes.

Ok, getting some Safeties back in play. Also, our special teams is going to be a huge strength this year.

per his wife lol:

Pace is filling out the bottom of the roster. https://www.windycitygridiron.com/2020/3/21/21189114/chicago-bears-bring-back-isaiah-irving-free-agency-edge-khalil-mack-robert-quinn-outside-linebacker

Because it's funny..who is to blame for Brady leaving NE? https://twitter.com/i/status/1240483951258591232

Completely missed this news yesterday. Anyone know any details? https://twitter.com/FieldYates/status/1240451182209859584

Fishburn and Durkin in the athletic had some interesting ideas. They say to sign Keenum, 1 yr 5 mil Golden, 1 yr 6 mil Trade the 4th pick to ravens for Hayden Hurst (the idea that he is 3rd string in Baltimore). Was a first round pick and has big upside at 3 mil. Kevin Johnson/ CB 2 yr 7 mil ( played well at buffalo last year) Halapoulicaati Vaitai OT 3 yr 24 mil. Backup at philly that would play RG this year and take a OT spot in future. Anybody know much about Vaitai?

The NFL is giving us all free access to NFL game pass for last year. We can watch every game from last years glorious season again and again!!

Based on cap estimates, which I have no idea who's right. I have read they have at most is 15mil. Now they of course will redo some contracts etc. But what QB's that are free agents are still worth signing to even be a backup. And I just don't see trading for almost any of the ones available. Dalton. Foles, Newton, and maybe Carr. I just don't see any way they can improve their QB play and will be lucky to get a backup better than Daniels was. I can't believe they would sign Newton or Brady. What say you?

So much for the backup plan. https://bearswire.usatoday.com/2020/03/17/washington-redskins-to-sign-former-chicago-bears-linebacker-kevin-pierre-louis/

Lasted only one year in Philadelphia. I think he will see more carries in Miami.

Not that it’s a huge surprise but Brady has officially said it’s over in NE. Does that mean anything for Chicago? We’ll soon see. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/sports/tom-brady-announces-he-leaving-new-england-patriots-n1161476

Here is a list of people we wanted and what they got paid. Keenum 3 yr 24 mil Glasgow 4 yr 44 mil Vailai 5 yr 50 mil JPP 2 yr 27 mil Hayden Hurst traded for a 2nd and 5th yr Austin Hooper 4 yr 44 mil Ryan Tannahill 4 yr 118 mil

They traded Hopkins for David Johnson, OMG. Seriously are they nuts or what?
