    Kirksey had good years in Cleveland in 2016 and 2017 before missing most of 2018 and 2019 with injuries. https://www.pro-football-reference.c...K/KirkCh00.htm Kirksey played for Mike Pettine in Cleveland his 1st 2 years.
    I like that they brought him in. Kirksey is (well, was) a very good player. If he can stay healthy and they structure his contract with game-day roster bonuses he could be a steal.

    I also like Kwiatkoski better than Trevathan at this point. There are some rumblings that Kwiatkoski could get a hefty contract because of several interested teams...I guess we'll find out.
    Littleton will cost too much money. If they aren't going to pony up for Blake or Schobert, they probably aren't for Littleton.

    Nothing on Tahir Whitehead...I'm thinking he's on the downside of his career and Gute/Ball don't want a guy like that.

    • Tire check on a decent, productive player with recent injury history....

      Kirksey, if healthy, at 3M, beats the fuck out of blake at 10M

        Absolutely. There was a time when Kirksey was looked at as a draft day gem and a potential cornerstone for that defense. The medical is a big concern but if he checks out I'd be curious what kind of contract he eventually gets.
        Nigel Bradham is out there too. There will be LBs out there in FA, the question is whether there are any where the price is worth the production. With FA you often overpay.

        They'll still need to draft a LB.

          Sources: The #Bears have agreed to terms with LB and team leader Danny Trevathan on a 3-year extension. Some work before the league year officially opens with a key piece of their team
          Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

            So Kwiatkowski will be out there.

            • If Kirksey is healthy and could be signed for $3 million or so a season, yeah that would be a good choice. That's a couple of big ifs, though. Otherwise or even with Kirksey, I'd still rather have Martinez for $8.5 or 9 than any of the others mentioned.

              • They should target a slightly bigger ILB who put up ordinary combine numbers and has slipped despite great college production. ILB is an instinct position sort of like RB. Sure, you would like Patrick Willis, but if you surround a lesser athlete who has instincts with talent you can get by. Then keep Greene healthy and try to find a guy similar to him as well.

                  • Yes to resigning Kenny Clark this offseason. Whatever the market dictates.
                    No to Bryan Bulaga at over $10M/year.
                    No to Cory Littleton at $15M/year.
                    No to Austin Hooper at $10M/year.
                    Yes to Christian Kirksey on the cheap.

                    I like both Kwiatkowski and Schobert. If they can get one for around the price that Adrian Amos cost last year, then do it.

                    • How good would Linval Joseph look at DE for us? That big boy looks like he could hold an edge.

                      • Our boy Hunter Henry was franchised tagged by the Chargers today. Austin Hooper's price just went up and it more or less guarantees that we will have neither. Sadness.

                            • I wouldn't mind the Packers going after Linval Joseph.

                              • Signing WR Robbie Anderson is getting some play when he mentioned in an interview he wouldn't mind playing for Green Bay. That would sure make that WR corps look a hell of a lot better. It would be about 12-14 mil/yr.
