I thought Wheeler was killing it last summer and had a great chance to make the roster until he suffered that horrific injury. He may not have fully recovered, which likely explains bringing Homer back. Not to mention Homer was an excellent contributor on STs.

I made a crack about him being our special weapon on the goal line like Detroit had with Skipper last year. He made huge strides forcing the bears to keep him active last year after the shared practices with the Bengals would have had him poached, maybe by the Bengals. I dont know what his role might be in the future, but we all know we are one or two injuries away from being right back in last years boat.Bears re-sign OL Doug Kramer to 1-year deal
The Bears are bringing back offensive lineman Doug Kramer for the 2025 season.bearswire.usatoday.com
Happy with this re-sign. Kramer provides IOL depth, versatility, and familiarity, including center. And except for that disastrous fumble against the Commanders, he's even provided a decent fill-in as a FB blocker in the run game. Glad he's back.
He was killing it. I read a headline about bad news about Jeanty, did not get into it, whether it was the news that the Raiders are all in on him with the 6th pick or something else, but I really need to see us getting some production out of our picks or our draft free agents and that only happens if they stay on the roster. I really dont want to see starters on special teams anymore.

another spot that should be filled by a draft pick already on our roster. I guess we see what the deal is and if he makes the roster. What should we be down to now, 5 million left?We git ourselves a kr......
Chicago Bears 2X Pro Bowl WR signing turns heads
The Chicago Bears signed a two-time Pro Bowl wide receiver to the roster on Wednesday. The Bears are getting an upgrade at kick return.
I think this is a good signing. I'm sure it has little impact on our cap issue, at least it doesn't in the financial scheme of things. In the meantime, assuming he clears medical, we get a fast two time Pro Bowler KR/PR who in entering his age 28 season is still very much in his prime. He can also serve as our 4th or 5th receiver, depending on whether or not Tyler Scott sticks with the team and beats him out. What this also accomplishes is it now frees up a draft spot to go after other areas of need.
I guess I just see absolutely no confidence in the choices. Its one thing to get someone of need like the o linemen, but pretty sure a guy like this would be available after you see what you get at the draft.
I'm going with, The Bears take a Running Back for 1,000 Alex, as your take. To your point, I understand the RB class is particularly deep this year so who knows.
All things being equal, I am hoping for a trade down.
The big Q is, if Jeanty is gone by the time the Bears are on the clock, do you think Poles would take Omarion Hampton in his place? He has been skyrocketing up the boards the past month or so and is now considered a 1st round lock. But 10 may be considered a bit high nonetheless. Otherwise, it does seem as if someone in the trenches would be the obvious choice.
Triple ditto here amigo!
The way i'm hearing it, there are just a handful of "Blue Chip" players. If one is available at 10, grab em. With 2 picks in the second, go need. But grab a day 1 starter with upside if available.
Each time Zaccheus has gotten a chance, I feel like he's shined with really solid games.
If Jeanty is really what we desire. Then, I have a feeling we'll simply trade down if we cannot land him.

Part of me still wonders what might have been. Always going one on one at tackle compared to double teams and pulling at guard. I have a feeling he is going to end up like who was it, Marc Columbo who became a pro bowl tackle with Dallas after he left.FYI:
Browns Sign G Teven Jenkins
