LAKE FOREST, Ill. -- Common senses calls for the Chicago Bears to draft a quarterback in April, but general manager Ryan Pace admitted that Mike Glennon's signing may impact the round Chicago chooses a developmental passer.

“It could,” Pace said. “Yeah, we're going to take the best player at every pick, so it could. Again we have a lot of confidence in Mike Glennon and again we're excited he's here. It opens things up.”

Glennon’s front-loaded contract is for $16 million guaranteed in 2017 but contains only $2.5 million in guarantees after that.
