The Bears 2025 Free Agency Thread

[Lake Shore Drive]

I really should have started this thread before the draft thread, being that free agency will take place before the draft. Unfortunately this season confirmed we could improvement within pretty much every unit on the team, with perhaps no greater need than the OL. It's been mentioned in a number of articles that aside from Darnell Wright at RT, just about every other spot on the line is up for grabs. Assuming Poles will not pursue Jenkins and/or if Jones is not the answer at LT, then let's face it, there's no way to fill four spots just thru the draft. He'll have to ink at least a couple of free agents, and likely starters at that. And let's keep in mind that there are other positions of need, either as starters or adding depth that we'll need to fill this offseason.

Here's a list of all the pending free agents from just the current wildcard playoff teams, courtesy of Bears Wire:

Without any kind of a dive into this group, it's a fair guess to say many of these FAs are either past their prime or if not, then will most likely be re-signed by their respective teams. And of course it's not a complete list, but at least a starting point.
