Not sure how I'm feeling about that hat/sweater combo. Looks like he came out of a 90's after school special.

I like color but he might have gone too far here.

I think I read Bradford is a really good golfer

Yeah, my guess is he makes a run at the PGA Tour when he retires. The gf thing I don't think there's anything out there. He's very private, and doesn't do much media stuff

In light of these inadequacies, the Bears have opened free agency splendidly, adding two of PFF’s top-three free-agent linebackers (Danny Trevathan, 86.6 overall grade; and Jerrell Freeman, 90.6 overall grade) early in the process, while obtaining defensive lineman Akiem Hicks (76.3) without breaking the bank (two years, $10 million). Trevathan finished fifth last season among inside linebackers in both run-stop percentage (11.9) and tackling efficiency (17.0), while Freeman’s run-defense grade (97.9) was the highest in the league among the same group. The addition of Trevathan and Freeman give the Bears a linebacking corps that also includes 2015 free-agent acquisition Pernell McPhee (87.6), pass-rush specialist Willie Young (82.8), and the improving Lamarr Houston (72.8) on the outside, elevating that group from one of the worst in 2015 to likely one of the best in 2016.


The addition of Hicks gives the Bears a complement to the solid Eddie Goldman (77.4) along the defensive line. Both Hicks (seventh) and Goldman (ninth) finished in the top-10 among defensive tackles in pass-rush productivity last season, and Hicks (with New England) was a respectable 16th in run-stop percentage. That kind of push up the middle will free McPhee, Young, and Houston to improve on their combined 20 sacks, 24 hits and 102 hurries generated last season with poor support from the Bears’ defensive line. With a look towards an upcoming draft full of solid prospects along the defensive interior, the Bears have the potential to have one of the top front-sevens in the NFL in John Fox’s second season at the helm.
