That number for a productive player with the speed and instincts to play WILL is excellent work right out the gate…surprises it wasn’t Okereke but for this price I doubt we could have gotten a better player for the money at that position…Edwards has been a tackling machine over the past two season and now gets to come home to Chicago and into a scheme he has already been so productive in…

This is an outstanding start from Poles & co IMO.

I wonder if he'd ever request permission from the Urlacher family to wear 54. The guy idolizes him and will reportedly be playing MLB. Could be a cool thing, especially since Bears haven't retired the number.

doesnt have to request permission if it's not retired

Yeah, but still would be a classy thing to do seeing as nobody has worn the number in 10+ seasons, so obviously there's some kind of behind the scenes faux pas that would need to be overcome.

Kind of like Ichiro calling Randy Johnson when he got signed and was going to get 51.

 

Really happy with this signing. Didn't think he would be on Poles' radar. Good start to FA.
