Chicago Bears: Previewing potential Bears roster moves
Receiver
I expect Pace to mostly attack this in free agency. I can’t imagine he wants to surround Trubisky with a bunch of rookie receivers that are just learning the position. There are guys like James Washington, DJ Moore and Calvin Ridley. I just don’t see them being worthy of the eighth overall pick.
Paul Richardson, Albert Wilson, Sammy Watkins, Marquise Lee, Paul Richardson, Donte Moncrief and John Brown are some of the more notable options set to hit the market. If the Jaguars let Allen Robinson hit the open market, then he should be the top priority.
Told on #Bears pursuit of Allen Robinson not to underestimate recruiting pitch new RBs Coach Charles London will offer. Expected to add multiple WRs and considered front runners for highly coveted FA Trey Burton.

The Dolphins tagged Jarvis Landry, but the belief is that they are looking to trade him. I’m all for that, if Pace can snag him without giving up much.
#Dolphins have floated the idea of trading Jarvis Landry with the 11th pick in order to move up in the draft to potentially take a QB.

Colts, Browns, Jets & Bears are among the teams that would be able to make that work.
Landry’s agents are meeting with the Dolphins today.
Don’t forget that Wilson is familar with Nagy’s offense. He could be a nice fit as a third or fourth receiver. Also, don’t rule out the option of resigning Kendall Wright, who showed flashes last season in a basic offense.
Tight end Trey Burton, who moves like a receiver, is also set to become a free agent. He would be a great fit in Nagy’s west coast offense. Trubisky just followed Burton on Instagram, so there could be some recruiting going on there.
I’d love to see Pace add two or three names from this list to join Cam Meredith, who is also hopefully resigned.
