Heinz D. Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 That's...weird. Huh. I don't even know the dude. (I think.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WindyCity Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 He is a very good run defender and has played well the last couple of seasons for the Chiefs. They are not confident they will see Goldman in camp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it contract related? Edited June 18, 2021 by beardown3231 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodjahs12 Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 Pennel is a good player was in GB was in KC you'll like him. That being said, what the hell is going on with Goldman? You'd think after sitting out because of COVID he'd be chomping at the bit to get back out there. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pennel and Tonga give the Bears a couple of big physical run stuffers and then Hicks, Nichols and Edwards can rush the passer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WindyCity Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 RE: Nichols, Blackson NT: Pennel, Tonga LE: Hicks, Edwards That DL is still good and much cheaper. That allows money to be moved to offense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He played well for 2 years of his extension. The Bears get a ton of cap space back if he retires. It might be a better allocation of cap space.

BJ Raji lost his passion for the sport and retired at a pretty early age as well, I don't remember him being quite this young though. Will be interesting to see what he says about it if that's what he chooses to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WindyCity Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 The Bears get 30 million in cap space back over 3 years if he retires and they claw back into the signing bonus money for the retired years. That could be used to pay Nichols, to upgrade the OL or in other spots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We still have a good DL without him. Last year they didn’t have a NT when he left. Tonga and Pennel should at least be able to do the lunch pail work. Nichols is the most important player now.

WindyCity Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 I am not worried about pass rush. Nichols, Edwards, and Hicks are a really good 3 players combo. I am worried about guys who can physically stop the run. We didn’t have that. Pennel traditionally has been a very good run defender and is a similar size to Goldman.
