DABEARSDABOMB Posted March 11, 2015 Report Share Posted March 11, 2015 @sportsmockery: Chicago Bears will host S Ron Parker, he is scheduled to fly in later on tonight. http://t.co/FEQLpl0yZP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DABEARSDABOMB Posted March 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2015 Supposedly the Bears have targeted him as being a high priority signing. They liked what they saw on film. That was reported by Lemming a day or two ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scs787 Posted March 11, 2015 Report Share Posted March 11, 2015 I'm hoping they snag this guy. Intriguing athlete for Fox/Donatel to mold. 6', 4.35 speed, former corner, was in Seattle a few years playing behind the LOB, and was apart of the #2 ranked pass defense last year.

Guest TerraTor Posted March 11, 2015 Report Share Posted March 11, 2015 It would b awesome if at some point in the time the Bears would get a safety who excelled at the position Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam Posted March 11, 2015 Report Share Posted March 11, 2015 Parker would be an upgrade, and right now that is what we have to do at every level. We can't sign 11 Pro-Bowlers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrackerDog Posted March 11, 2015 Report Share Posted March 11, 2015 Parker would be an upgrade, and right now that is what we have to do at every level. We can't sign 11 Pro-Bowlers. If you put enough B+ players on the field at the same time, you'll get an A+ defense with some Pro-Bowlers on it. Particularly if they're well coached.

lemonej Posted March 11, 2015 Report Share Posted March 11, 2015 I'm so fed up with the rumor frenzy that I find it hard to believe anything until I see actual signings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DABEARSDABOMB Posted March 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2015 Bears meeting supposedly went well and Lemming reporting we are front runners but nothing done yet (supposedly another team is making a push). Also some rumors that we are still in on Foster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adam Posted March 13, 2015 Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 What is Parker's value? He's not listed in the PFT top 100. #93 on NFL.com, converted from CB to S, plays special teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dawhizz Posted March 13, 2015 Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 This is the last semi-legit thing I saw, from last night: Michael C. Wright @mikecwright · 12h12 hours ago If anything gets done w/Ron Parker, expectation is it won't be soon. Told it could, emphasis on could, happen later tomorrow.

dawhizz Posted March 14, 2015 Report Share Posted March 14, 2015 Parker back to Chiefs. 5/$30 million. Seems high. Glad the Bears moved on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stinger226 Posted March 14, 2015 Report Share Posted March 14, 2015 Parker back to Chiefs. 5/$30 million. Seems high. Glad the Bears moved on. Its another overpay for a player, were now in on bargain hunting and that's why he didnt sign here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stinger226 Posted March 14, 2015 Report Share Posted March 14, 2015 Its another overpay for a player, were now in on bargain hunting and that's why he didnt sign here. Now Lewis is gone, going to be slim pickings for a cheap price. Maybe Rolle can talk Stevie Brown into coming here, not a bad player.

adam Posted March 14, 2015 Report Share Posted March 14, 2015 $6mil is crazy for Parker. I was figuring $4mil for 3 years. $30mil? Wow. I would rather have Goldson and use him like he was in SF. Brown would be good too, especially considering his experience with Rolle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brown would be good too, especially considering his experience with Rolle. I couldn't agree more. NFL.com had Parker ranked as the 88th best free agent, behind both Peanut Tillman and Lance Briggs. This is one of those deals that makes me wonder, what was his second best offer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZ54 Posted March 15, 2015 Report Share Posted March 15, 2015 Way too rich for my tastes for a somewhat unproven safety. I'm glad Pace is not over-paying (too much) just to get players here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say we were probably 4-13 mil. In that area of an offer. There were be some help along the way, just not names we were expecting.
