Was on the Bears radar a few years ago. Take another look?

Solid, unspectacular player that would plug in and get EJax playing deep safety where he belongs and can create big play INTs - another Pagano bonehead move last year.

Yes, Pagano is an utter moron. Had Roquan out of position for most of the year also, and when he got back to where he should have been we saw Roquan take off and play great for a stretch before the injury.

Oh yea, he likes to drop Mack in coverage frequently also. WTF.

Should've just stopped there.

Don't derail this thread into some Pagano bullshit. Any posts regarding Pagano/etc that are unrelated to Tony Jefferson will be deleted.

I like that he’s a pure SS. He’d be a nice option in the nickel.

I'm still selfishly hoping we go after Karl Joseph... that was my DUDE back in the 2016 draft.

Yeah but you can probably bring back Bush and add Jefferson for the price of Joseph.

Ejax, Bush, Jefferson and Denmark would make it so we don’t have to spend an early pick on a safety.

I brought it up because it was relevant to the player and have no intention of turning it into a full on Pagano thread. Jefferson would force Pagano into playing EJax where he belongs because Jefferson isn't suited for the deep safety role, more of a box safety, which is what we had when we had Amos. Chill out dude.

Sounds good. I'd like to keep Bush, so that makes it even better. Bye bye Ha ha.

Any reason Jefferson wouldn't want to come to the Bears?
