He is a solid starter and better than the losers that the Bears have. The health concerns suck considering the Bears struggles to keep guys healthy.

But a let down based on what they were connected to yesterday.

Nothing more then a stop gap and he should not prevent Hall from seeing the field.

He's been used mostly as a zone guy so I'm curious to see how he performs in a press coverage scheme with Fangio. He can tackle and play physical but just can't stay healthy and has little to no ball skills. 1-year prove it deal, maybe we get something out of him.

Do we still draft a CB early though?

It's a good i year signing and a guy that can hold his own on his side of the field if he can stay healthy. It's not Gilmore or Bouye but we got better at CB with him.

Fuller > Amukamara

He's a bum

Per @PFF, in 2016, QBs completed 64% of their passes for a 108.8 passer-efficiency rating when targeting new #Bears CB Prince Amukamara.

I think at this point Pace is probably resigned to signing guys to fill out the depth of the team so come draft time it's going to be BPA. If that guy happens to be a CB then I think you draft them.

Honestly Fuller probably is better.

What sucks is that there doesn't seem to have much long term value.

0 picks last year. Should fit right in with the rest of these bums.
