I bet he knows the name but not a lot else. Like all conspiracy theorists he's probably just a credulous moron who racks up a list of things to name-drop without even knowing the substance of most of the time, in order to have more administration to use when cornering people at parties

Is Ryan Poles actually going to do anything with their cap space or just roll it back with a rookie QB and see if the results improve? Like wtf is going on? How are they not in on any of the big name linemen?

Looks like it’s a 1y/1.35m deal. De-risks the draft for pretty cheap, I guess. https://x.com/tomgrossicomedy/status/1768405485852528949?s=46&t=3bRAS8rH63t1Hw7nhc27QA

I'm reading that as $1.35 million + the veteran minimum (in DIllon's case, $1.08 million) for a combined total of $2.43 million. Still not a huge deal, though. I was worried we gave him $4 mil guaranteed or something.

It should only be used to cover holes so you can draft for need. Teams who spend big in free agency dont win championships. Now they just need an edge and receiver and they should be good. I also think free agency is indicating they will likely trade out of nine to get more draft capital.

How are they not in on any of the big name linemen? It was brought up a few times in the athletic podcasts that Randy Mueller does and while it makes sense I never actually thought about it but ... Owners give gms how much actual cash they can spend on their roster each year. As Randy said it is very very very rarely even close to the cap, especially because they have to leave a buffer for injury signings and the like. Also because team might be investing in other things that year like say idk a new stadium. So I'm not 100 sure this is all Ryan proles doing here he might just not have the actual dollars to spend this year regardless of the cap space available. The NFL does police this a bit with a pretty high salary cap floor that teams must spend in real dollars every year but they can float some of that year 2 year and delay spending for a few years if they choose.

Teams who spend big in free agency dont win championships. Now they just need an edge and receiver and they should be good. They need 2 starting wide receivers, a starting EDGE, a starting DT, and probably a good offensive lineman (although it seems like they might just be going with the trash heap strategy again there). If Poles can turn the #9 pick into filling all those holes, more power to him. Not saying they had to grab Burns or anything on a monster contract. But Huff and Hunter were both pretty drat affordable and legit starters for the D-Line. Even a guy like Floyd would be a nice short term deal. Isn't the point of having a QB on a rookie contract that you can spend in other areas?

I haven't read anything about that and I don't think the Bears have had much issue spending on players in the past. They're cheap in other areas, but I've never heard it with the payroll. I think it's more likely the GM who has been really bad at free agency might just be having another really bad free agency.

the whole video is pretty good especially but this particular area owns because it shows exactly how both the LaFleur scheme works and how Love has complete command over the offense: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZN_hPJxI_s8&t=489s

Was curious so I went in spottrac and looked. Until 2022 the bears were pretty much always spending 80 to 90% of cap each year. In cash spending they were a bit lower but reasonable in the top 1/3rd of League . 2022 they tore it down to the studs and were dead last in both cap spending and real cash. Last year they were below middle of the pack and this year so far that's the same trend. More like the 3rd quartile in spending. So it could be proles philosophy or it could just be the owner or a combo of both. But since 2022 they haven't spent like they did before and even with gobs of cap space still haven't really spent it on much.

Four days into free agency with a handful of starter-quality players still available at positions of need and two incredibly valuable draft picks, that's probably the right time to complain about how the roster is still incomplete

If Poles can turn the #9 pick into filling all those holes, more power to him. They are probably drafting a receiver and trusting Scott to develop in year two. They will sign someone, but I'm not expecting a splash. They drafted two DTs last year and Dexter showed flashes. They still have Billings. They will probably add depth, but try developing the talent they have. I think they will probably draft an edge and sign someone to a Yannick type deal in free agency. They signed a bunch of replacement level guys and will probably draft someone else for the line. They also seem to be ahead of the compensatory pick curve, which is a good sign.

Sataere posted:They are probably drafting a receiver and trusting Scott to develop in year two. They will sign someone, but I'm not expecting a splash. Tyler Scott is a slot receiver, and Waldron doesn't utilize that (one of the downsides of having to change your offensive scheme every couple of years). Plus, he looked pretty bad last year. He's still young, so maybe that will change (although him being a slot in this offense makes it unlikely). I wouldn't pencil him into the lineup at all if you're looking to be competitive. There isn't much left in the free agency pool for wide receivers. A guy like Gabe Davis would have been a nice signing. Maybe they have a trade working to bring in some receiver help. Or maybe they'll sign one of the good tackles left on the board to at least bolster the offensive line if they aren't going to really have many weapons.
