Layla Rahimi

So, do you feel like enough was done in free agency to replace some people who really did matter last season?

We'll talk about that next.

This is Rahimi Harrison-Grody on 104.3 The Score.

Mark Grody and Layla Rahimi are in with you on this Thursday.

And we are awaiting later today to hear from the Bears front office.

Ryan Poles is speaking, and I think that that's important because we haven't heard from him a lot, which is really, really good to know.

So we'll hear from him.

I think we're also expecting to hear from some of the Bears' new acquisitions.

So that'll be really helpful to help fill in our gaps over at Hallis Hall.

But in the meantime...

Marshall and I were talking about this yesterday, Mark, the waves of free agency and how you kind of time them.

I feel like this is the close of the first major wave of free agency.

When the league tampering window opens on Monday, you get all the smattering of free agent news on the first day and then it kind of closes out.

And then the GM speaks because it's a new league year.

And then we'll get like the details guys signing like Nashawn Wright did last year.

You know, that was the, the Bears have also added these guys and it's like 10 guys who they've signed or something.

So now that this first wave of free agency is closed, do you Mark feel like the Bears have done enough in replacing the players who left with guys who can help this team improve on the record they had last year?

And that's where I sit with this is when I consider how many one score games the Bears won and how we talk about so much, how we discuss, you know, the plays that a guy like, yeah, Tremaine Edmonds may have not been what you wanted him to be in the totality of his career with the Bears.

He got released in the last year of his contract.

But he still led the team in tackles in the regular season despite missing four games.
