Column: ‘Unlimited money’? No, but Chicago Bears have division rivals’ attention with offseason roster rebuild.

The Chicago Bears aren’t the only NFC North team that invested in the line of scrimmage during a whirlwind start to the NFL’s new year.

They’re just the team that has done the most work in the trenches after a 5-12 season, the sixth time in the last 11 years they finished last in the division.

The Bears have been so busy, they caught the attention of Amon-Ra St. Brown, the All-Pro Detroit Lions wide receiver who came off as something between envious and impressed at all the work that has been done for first-year Bears coach Ben Johnson, the former Lions offensive coordinator.
