"Ifedi, who will be 26 going into the season, was the No. 31 overall draft pick in 2016. He played every offensive snap for Seattle last season and had 14 accepted penalties. " From the Sun Times. Edit: Can play every position not Center on the O line apparently. Swing Tackle has played Guard as well. Young, solid starter type. Didn't expect this. Good on Pace.

I told you clowns i would take care of the o-line. Now come on out and cry about this one haters.

Sorry...i had to.

The former first-round pick marks the first new offensive lineman the Bears have brought in this offseason.

14 accepted penalties.....Ewwwwwww

frees them up to go with best available instead of being tied to OL, i think they'll still draft OL but IMO they're going to draft a playmaker along the lines of a deebo samuel, robinson is not a RAC guy per se, gabriel is gone, you've got cohen and essentially a bunch of glorified possession guys....not saying robinson isn't awesome but he's not a deebo samuel type rac

 

[RubberBanMan]

So more 1st and 20s?

So a J.Reagor type

14 accepted penalties.....Ewwwwwww

14 penalties?

Leno could probably do that in a game.

If he has 14 penalties again, not sure that takes care of the line issues

 

[dennehy]

Clearly Pace is targeting talented guys who didn't live up to their draft position. Ifedi, Mingo, Burns all fit this profile.

Great move. He really held his own vs Mack

Another thing, if he's good enough to start at Tackle, he can push either Massie or Leno. Competition is a good thing.

Edit: This signing surprises the hell out of me. I didn't expect the Bears to find anyone with starting experience on the O line in the off season, especially a Tackle, after the Quinn and TE signings.

C'mon now. In fairness, I've seen Mack put a lot of NFL tackles on their ass.
