Hey Bears Fans! You voted, so I delivered! This episode will be all about the cap.
With the help of Brad Spielberger from Over The Cap, I roar through pretty much every question I could think of related to the Bears’ 2019 salary cap situation and how it affects their offseason. The questions include...
- Does Cap Hell exist? If so, what causes it?
- How much cap space will the Chicago Bears have to work with this offseason?
- Can the Bears actually cut Cody Parkey? What would his cap hit do to their offseason plans?
- Some have mentioned potentially restructuring Kyle Long’s deal/turning some folks’ cap hits into signing bonus. What’s involved in a contract-restructure and how does it affect the cap?
- The Bears have a few fairly important players hitting free agency this offseason — what happens to Bobby Massie, Adrian Amos, Bryce Callahan, Patrick O’Donnell, and the others?
- What even is an RFA? An ERFA?
- Who are a few way-too-early Free Agency targets for Bears’ fans to keep their eyes on?
- Which of the Bears’ NFC North rivals has the worst cap outlook right now?
Give it a listen and let me know what you think! Be sure to shoot Brad Spielberger a follow if Twitter is your thing, he brought tons of great info to this episode. Bear down, and thanks so much for Bearing With Me!
