Monday-morning quarterbacking is a traditional pastime for football fans. With the benefit of hindsight, it’s easy to second-guess the bad throw or the inability to see a blitzing safety. So, in the fine tradition of Monday-morning quarterbacking, and with the Bears’ playoff hopes seeming precarious, at best, I wanted to take a few moments to second-guess the biggest moves made in the last two free agency periods by Bears’ general manager Ryan Pace. With the benefit of hindsight, how did Pace do in deciding who to let go and who to bring in from other teams?
The Ones Who Got Away
For 2019, the biggest free agents Ryan Pace let get away, in terms of contract value, were Adrian Amos, Bryce Callahan, and Josh Bellamy.
