I know all teams sign UFA

But is there anything more with the signing of a PK? Does this mean they are prepared for a long holdout with Gould or that maybe they are prepared to part ways with him if this guy has a slightly stronger leg (Gould’s career long is 49)

We always have at least two kickers in camp

I’m sure the Gould situation will be fine.

I don't know

but I am already bracing myself to switch from reading Gould is Good headlines to Shane Kicks Longest.

Personally my favorites

Are the two undrafted guys from last year: Matt Toeania and Babatunde Oshinowo.

USC OG Drew Radovich

- was hoping to see him on this list after going undrafted. Just saw the Vikings signed him though… ah well.

Don't see a center on that list

Given the speed at which OLs tend to fall apart, I would have liked to have drafted a C. Kreutz is no longer the Pro Bowler he once was, and he’s pretty expensive. Much better to draft a replacement and have him waiting than overpay for a free agent.

kreutz

is still very good, with 2 or 3 good years left in him if he gets a little help on the side of him.

good pickups

Shane Longest is a local(Wilmington HS and St Xavier-Joliet) with a strong leg. a former AllState baseball player. Little chance he will be as accurate as Gould, but would definetly outkick him on Kickoffs. Hanie is a Mel Kiper favorite, he said he has a chance to be a starting QB. Kiper also said the Bears have done the most to help their team win THIS year, if the players they drafted can stay healthy.
