You know, one thing to think about is Shelly at safety. I got this idea because I saw a Bear roster a week ago that listed him there. Yeah, he's small for a safety, but he's physical and already plays inside CB. Doesn't seem like it would be that big a transition if we had to.

Another thing to think about is that we're going to need more linebackers, both inside and outside. We have Roquan, Danny, Iggy, Mack, Quinn,, Vaughters, Bonds, and Woods. Depth is weak there.
A 5'9 173 pound Strong Safety?

That's just not realistic. I'm sorry.

Adding Quinn can give the Bears a chance at another 2018 type defense. If that's the case and the defense gives them a lead or short fields then Foles can make teams pay for loading the box. A big pass rush will help cover up some of the holes in the defensive backfield too, as well as having DT and Roquan back together again to cover the middle.

Pace is probably still looking for a back to complement Monty, as Tarik ain't it and apparently Nall has not gained the coach's confidence. And yes, the RG hole is still there to fill as well. You'd think they could find a vet who could fill the spot. Maybe Bars is their ace in the hole?
San Francisco has always been my favorite booing city. I don't mean the people boo louder or longer, but there is a very special intimacy. Music, that's what it is to me. One time in Kezar Stadium they gave me a standing boo.
