I actually was quite happy with the production of Conte and Wright. However, Wright is no good if he is not on the field, and Conte also got hurt. Steltz is a fine backup SS, and didn’t do too bad when he was used properly. Of course, if an upgrade is to be had, go do it. There wasn’t much out there via FA, so no need to waste money on such talent.

The same thoughts went through my mind when I heard about the corner signings. It seems no one is talking about the safeties and instead saying we need DL, but look at our safeties. Wright/Conte/Steltz are just ok, but the Bears really need a new Mike Brown to get the most out of Lovie’s system. I’m pretty sure no opposing QB goes into the week concerned about how they will account for Wright/Conte/Steltz…

From what I’ve read, it doesn’t sound like there’s a ton of safety talent in this draft–much less free safety depth, which is what we really need–so I’ll bet we stick with what we have. No sense chasing after more mediocre talent.

Good depth signings. Emery’s done a nice job so far, can’t wait til the draft!
