Competition for playing time boosting Bears
The bench players that general manager Phil Emery added to the Bears in the offseason did more than improve depth. They improved the front line too. There is little doubt that more intense completion at cornerback, defensive end, defensive tackle,...

McClellin ranks near middle of class
With the 15th pick of the NFL draft in April, the Seahawks chose defensive end Bruce Irvin. Four picks later, the Bears chose defensive end Shea McClellin. If the Bears had picked 15th and the Seahawks 19th, it's possible Irvin would be a Bear and...

Bears show willingness to pounce on free agents
PHOENIX — Perhaps they should rename them the Chicago Vultures. Somewhere along the way, the Bears have become scavengers, sustaining themselves on what other teams have left behind. If you had to project the Bears' 2013 starting lineup in...
