So much for getting this guy:
Safety Eric Berry said that he wouldn’t play out another season
on the franchise tag, but it looks like he’ll avoid having to go
through with that this season.
Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that Berry and the Chiefs are
putting the finishing touches on a long-term deal that will keep
the franchise tag off the table for the safety. The two sides
are reportedly finalizing a six-year deal worth $78 million,
which would make Berry the highest-paid player at his position.
Berry has spent his entire career with the Chiefs since the team
made him a first-round pick in the 2010 draft. He’s been named a
first-team All Pro three times in the last four years and only
missed out on election to that team after missing a large
portion of the 2014 season following a lymphoma diagnosis.
Signing Berry would leave the franchise tag available for
defensive tackle Dontari Poe in the event the Chiefs want to use
that option to keep Poe from hitting the open market.

This article seems to point out the status of where the Bears
are at. It was very well written.

Correct, but it makes it clear the dynamics of the problems.

This is a DEFENSE heavy draft.
Can HALAS HALL make the most of it ?
SECONDARY (revised from CB) Gimme Two !
First of all ... we don't know who the starting QB is going to
be ...
so how Jeffery fit in with JCut may be a non-issue.
Other WR's stood up ... and they are still on the team.
As usual ... we are starting over without any plan in place.
Just take it on the fly as BEARS fans ! We're used to it. ;D

40 lbs, shit:
Bears guard Kyle Long was slated to have two surgeries after
going on injured reserve last November, but one of those
surgeries won’t happen so that Long can concentrate on ankle
rehab.
Long went on injured reserve as a result of ligament damage in
his right ankle and he’s had surgery to address that injury, but
will not have an operation to repair the torn labrum in his left
shoulder. Long played through the torn labrum last season and
signed an extension with the Bears last September after
suffering the injury.
Long’s father Howie told Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune that
his son “struggled with medication” related to the ankle surgery
and that he has lost 40 pounds since the surgery. Some of that
weight loss was prescribed to help with his ankle recovery, but
Biggs says that will now be an “extended process” that will
require more focus than Long could devote if he was also
rehabbing from shoulder surgery.
There’s no word on just how extended that process is going to be
and the change in plans suggests that Long will a limited
participant at best through the offseason program.
