With the exception of the Khalil Mack trade, the Chicago Bears and new GM Ryan Poles have been relatively quiet this off-season.

Upon the announcement of Ryan Poles being hired as General Manager, he did that that the team would be selective in free agency and build through the draft.

In a recent interview Ryan Poles stated:

«SOMEONE ALLUDED TO THE FACT THAT A LOT OF THE FREE AGENTS WE BROUGHT IN WERE UNDRAFTED,» POLES SAID. «THEY HAD TO FIGHT. THEY HAD TO BE RESILIENT. THEY HAD TO PROVE. THEY HAD TO HAVE SELF-AWARENESS, TO LOOK THEMSELVES IN THE MIRROR AND SAY, �I'VE GOT TO GET BETTER AT THESE THINGS IF I'M GONNA MAKE IT.' SO WE LOOK FORWARD TO THAT.»

There is no denying there is a certain atmosphere Poles want to fill Halas Hall with, and it's already showing in his free agency signings.

Byron Pringle is a walking example of resilience, at the age of 16, Pringle was arrested for a series of crimes including grand theft, burglary and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and missed his junior year of high school. Originally this coat Pringle a scholarship opportunity as he went on to play at Butler Community College in Kansas before being offered a scholarship at Kansas State. Pringle fought from being an undrafted free agent, to special team's ace to becoming a part of the Chiefs offense and winning a Super Bowl.

That's not it on in this free-agent class. Nicholas Morrow played Division 3 football where he went on to sign a rookie deal with the Raiders and even earned a starting position. Recently signed DB Tavon Young has battled numerous season-ending injuries, despite those Young has bounced back multiple times and has been one of the better slot corners in the league when on the field. Al-Quadin Muhammad was a 6th round pick that over the years with the Colts worked his tail off earning significant playing time and a strong role in Eberflus' defense. Lastly, offensive lineman Lucas Patrick went from undrafted FA, practice squad, backup into his starting role he played over the last 2 seasons and is expected to position himself with the Chicago Bears.

Its apparent Poles has a plan, and idea in place as he shapes this roster to how he feels is best for it to contend and take back over the North.
