Re: Bears sign S Kevin Byard to 2yr $15m deal

Eagles fans I know did not think very much of him. But they also noted that by the time he was coming in - the whole Defense was collapsing Heard that myself. The one I heard was extremely dismissive, saying he was washed up. I think he'll be an immediate upgrade over what Jackson was the last coup...

Re: Bears sign RB D'Andre Swift to 3yr, $24M contract
