Cap move for the Ravens. Not sure what he’d be looking for, but if he’s inexpensive he could be a one or two year option for the Bears.

I'm just dropping in for a friendly reminder: The Bears don't need to go after every once-popular player that has been released.

That’s expensive...6 mill per year?

Amos will get 8 mill at a minimum...

5.25 per year, 1 million incentive in each season if they make the super bowl. Most likely it's a deal they can get out of for nothing after 1 season for sure.

@thekapman
Great stuff on how Eric Weddle ended up signing with the Rams. @mmqb says the Bears "were chomping at the bit" to have him in Halas Hall first. His price tag was 5 million plus incentives. Sounds like Adrian Amos was not the Bears first choice.
