Bears Free Agents

[adam]

Here are the Bears Free Agents heading into the offseason.

Counting Special Teams, the Bears have 5 starters that are UFAs. Daly and Duvernay are low salaries guys that can be brought back with little cap considerations. So that leaves Brisker, Byard, and Wright. Out of those 3, I would bring back Byard, he should be the cheapest of the 3 and gives you the most in terms of performance and leadership. Brisker played a great game against the Rams but is too big of an injury risk with his concussion history. Wright started out on fire, then got burnt for the back half of the season.

Unrestricted Free Agents

S Jaquan Brisker - Injury risk, pass

S Kevin Byard - I would resign to a 2-yr deal, team leader, still playing at a high level

CB Nashon Wright - subtract the INTs and you have a bad DB

LS Scott Daly - resign to near vet min deal

WR Devin Duvernay - resign to near vet min deal, unless you think you can get more out of this position

DL Andrew Billings - gone, old, fat, and slow.

CB Elijah Hicks - If signed will be for near league min deal

RB Travis Homer - If signed will be for near league min deal

LB D'Marco Jackson - I would resign him if you are playing on keeping DA, Jackson played well as the next man up

OT Braxton Jones - cant see them resigning him

DB Jaylon Jones - If signed will be for near league min deal

QB Case Keenum - Bring him back if you think he can still provide guidance, with Caleb entering Year 3, might not be needed anymore 

CB Nick McCloud - Please don't resign this turnstile, contributed directly to at least 3 of the Bears losses

S Jonathan Owens - Meh

Edge Dominique Robinson - Never consistent enough

TE Durham Smythe - Solid TE3

Edge Joe Tryon-Shoyinka - Made a couple of plays, doubt you have money for rotational Edges over league min

DL Chris Williams - DT Room needs an upgrade from top to bottom

WR Olamide Zaccheaus - Impressed in training camp and early on, then fell off a cliff. Doubt he is back.

 

Restricted/Exclusive-Rights Free Agents

LT Theo Benedet - cool story, but depends on the cost

Edge Daniel Hardy - ST Specialist, only sign if he is getting ST level money

LB Noah Sewell - Injuries and terrible in coverage
