Even the ones that already signed with other teams, **** it!

Goodell had to step in and put a freeze on all NFL free agent signings shortly after we signed Glennon. It was an overwhelming stampede of players converging on Halas Hall - all begging to play with Glennon. Here's some WGN-News footage of the Halas Hall security guys trying to fight off the screaming horde of free agents. Rumor has it that they were also chanting Fox, Fox, Fox at the top of their lungs.

Why does one have to keep you from doing the other? And how do you know for certain Glennon will not get better here? I don't know that...how do you know that?
Because this team cannot protect a pocket passer. I'd bet against it (improvement) and it would be great if the bears drafted a QB too, but why pay someone 14-15 mil a year and have Leno on his blind side, no #1wr to throw to and your best Te on the wrong side of 30?
I'm waiting on the draft to see how Pace plays it; is this about getting talent on the roster or reaching to plug holes. In two drafts, I am not clear on what he's up to thanks in no small part to the bears having a need everywhere when Pace arrived. All our best players were on 2nd contracts at best, except AJ. One year left there, then franchised now a FA.
If we draft a QB before rd4, they'll need reps. Pair him with a T and let him figure out how to play under center/ read pro zones. I don't see why you do that and sign Glennon. Glennon comes in to start and this team has plenty of back ups floating around.
No doubt we need to draft a TE.
Who is to say even if we did franchise AJ the Bears QB would have a #1 to throw to on game day?
I agree except with the O line not getting better. I believe the O Line will be better this next season with a healthy HG (still an unknown), Long, Sitton and second year of Whitehair is an improvement without even adding anyone. Strong interior line play will only help the T's (whoever they may be) as the Tackles won't be pushing to do more than their part, rather they will actually have confidence on their inside. No?
