As for Adrian Amos, first of all why is he considered a FS? He's
more of a physical strong safety type. Is Eddie Jackson our
strong safety?
Last year Amos had a nice year but he's never been a guy that
gets his hands on too many balls and I've been critical of him
for that in the past. In his first 2 years 7 passes defended -
no picks. Last year 3 passes defended and one pick (and also
forced 2 fumbles).
If he's so good - do the Bears cut ties with Demps?

To me that's his strongest attribute - he laid the wood on a
couple guys last year.

Interesting question to Biggs and his answer, but I dont agree
with the answer
[B]What do we know about Kevin White’s two years of rehab? Has
he been a workout warrior? Will he be stronger and faster? Or? —
@GZeff[/B]
It’s really been rehabilitation over three seasons for White. I
can say the Bears’ consistent message regarding the 2015
first-round draft pick is he’s always worked diligently and has
maintained a really positive attitude throughout it all. I think
it’s naive to believe White is going to get faster, and speed
hasn’t been an issue for him. He needs to develop better skills
running routes, and that requires time on the field. Strength
hasn’t been an issue for him either. Just look at photos of him.
He’s got all kinds of strength. What he’s lacked has been
durability and a little good luck.
I think separation was what White lacked. Early problems were
route running. Separation to me is a lack of quickness and
speed. Biggs seems to be painting a different picture than what
we saw last year.

Speed and quickness are huge contributors to getting separation,
but don't minimize the ability to read the defenses and execute
footwork required for the route.
In White's scouting report there was some concern about his
experience with a varied route tree, that is, he was running
simpler routes in college.
If speed was the only factor the NFL would be full of track
guys. White just needs to stay healthy during training camp,
preseason and the regular season before anyone can start
questioning his ability as a receiver.

“I just think he is going to utilize Trubisky’s strengths from
day one,” Smith said. “He is going to find out what those are
and take advantage of them. I think (Nagy) is going to put him
in positions to have success early to get in a rhythm.
“It’s hard sometimes, and I’ve been there. I watched (the Bears)
a couple times this year and felt almost all of (Trubisky’s)
pass attempts came on third down, and that’s a hard way to play
because I have been there too as a young player. He didn’t have
the breather completions and throws to get himself into a
rhythm, and I think Matt will do a great job just building it
around him, tailoring it to his strengths, putting pieces around
him that will help him.”

He hasn't been released yet so he is still the backup.
