Good pickup. The dude was a beast at FSU and a change of scenery may do him good and help him get his confidence back. If not then no biggie.

By claiming him off waivers, the Bears are on the hook for his entire contract. Barth is half way out the door.

What makes this even more hilarious is the fact that the Bucs cut Barth after drafting Aguayo...

Don't worry.
The Bears have the been quoted as saying, "Connor Barth is our field goal kicker."

Bears are only on the hook for his 2017 portion of salary that is guaranteed which is only about 430,000 out of 630,000. So basically he would cost about 785,00 (630,000 plus 155,000 it would cost to cut Barth).
His 2018 and 2019 salaries are not guaranteed and are 820k and 1 million or so.

This is a puzzling move by Pace getting rid of the kid from Utah that was obvious better then barf. Now you bring in a bust to complete with a bust ?

It seems like Aguayo's biggest problem was mental. His college career shows that he has all the physical capabilities to be a successful kicker.
Here's to hoping a change of scenery will do the kid well.

Are you sure that they'll have to pay his remaining salary?? I don't know for sure but thought the Bucs have to pay the rest of it.

Yeah he was absolutely great at FSU and definitely think it's mental and not sure the Chicago weather will help. If he can fix the mental he can be a great kicker.
