As much as lots of fans want us to acquire the top players in the league, I think the bears will bargain shop free agents.
I think Byard is a given to bring back, but the other safety may be a TJ Edwards type of signing. Same for S. Those two positions can find a lot of value in FAgency.
I suspect we go after one (tier 2) edge or DT for around 9 to 10 mil.
Poles could surprise us with another trade but IMO it's not a big money guy.
If some of the older vets still playing may want to get on a SB contender that we will be. Those signing won't be until later in free agency. Mack, Cam Jordan.
Poles has brought in TJ Edwards, Billings, D Jackson, Gardener-Johnson Zacchus all on cheap money that has made contributions. I suspect more of the same.
