Remaining options for the Bears after a quiet start to free agency
The Bears have been very quiet in free agency thus far. After the big signing of DT Larry Ogunjobi within the first hours, they haven't signed any other players to the roster. We are not opposed to the strategy of the long-game because it prevents you from overpaying on players. However some of these deals seem like they would've been welcomed in Chicago. We have to trust Ryan Poles and the new regime.
The offensive line options are still pretty good even after several big names have already signed. Terron Armstead, JC Tretter, and Brian Bulaga are proven difference makers that could still be signed. Another option would be La'el Collins who is involved in many rumors and is younger than the other guys. Bradley Bozeman and Matt Paradis are other options in the middle.
At receiver, few players remain and the market is very high. Juju Smith-Schuster, Jarvis Landry would be good additions and Marquez Valdez-Scantling would be a decent depth pickup. Bringing back Allen Robinson would also be an option although I doubt he resigns.
Cornerback is also a position of need for Chicago and the options could still be interesting. Of course there is Stephon Gilmore but he wouldn't be a cheap deal. Players like Donte Jackson, Bryce Callahan and Darious Williams would be great signings.
It is impossible to know when Ryan Poles will strike again but he will surely be forced to make some moves soon. Some positions can be adressed in the draft to avoid overpaying for players but with limited draft capital, the Bears need to make plays in free agency.
