It’s been a pleasantly quiet offseason for the Bears, and that’s usually how it goes for good teams. General manager Ryan Pace made a few tweaks here and there, mainly at running back and safety, and there was little else that needed to be done to a roster that went 12-4 and hasn’t hit its ceiling.
But the Bears believe they actually did make a big, splashy offseason “acquisition,” and it’s not Ha Ha Clinton-Dix. It’s at quarterback. If Mitch Trubisky keeps his trajectory going with a leap in Year 3, that’s a bigger upgrade than anything the team could’ve bought in free agency.
