Based on his tweet about cold weather, I'm guessing he's been signed.

For someone who really doesn't want Allen, this should be news you'd be dancing reading, if the Bears pick this guy up, it really would lessen the chance they select Allen...
I don't think any of these FA signings lessens the chance of drafting any position. Jenkins or RJF could easily be TC casualties if the Bears drafted Allen.

@greggabe

Ricky Jean Francois has left for Chicago on for a visit with Seattle. Still chance he signs but obviously Seattle more in play

With Seattle and GB in play, doesn't surprise he shunned the Bears. Fangio and Fox may be high on the coaching lists, but money and a chance to win soon cannot be passed up.

Um he is better then Unrien and Jenkins. The pack also released Gunter. Which is a decent player.

Rashede Hageman was released by the Falcons and is still out there, I believe. First round grade, second round pick. Dudes 6'6". Little tall to be a 3-tech.

Don't we need to ask why the Packers now released him? If it's all politics in Washington, was it the same up north? And if so, why would we need to bring in a locker room lawyer? And if his release in GB was for poor play, then why would we want him? Seems like a losing proposition.
Mikefive's theory: The only time you KNOW that a sports team player, coach or management member is being 100% honest is when they're NOT reciting "the company line".

Go back to leather helmets, NFL.

Aside from Hicks wearing himself out with all the post tackle celebrations, out of all the things on this team, the DL isn't something I'm overly worried about.
