Bears Add a Slew of Undrafted Free Agents

The Bears must have worked through the night because from the time I crawled up from the man cave after midnight until the time I woke up at 6, an impressive list of undrafted free agents was published by the Trib’s Brad Biggs.  Here’s the unofficial list:

DB Antareis Bryan, Baylor

DB Ryan Jones, Northwest Missouri State

WR Jimmy Young, TCU

DB Winston Venable, Boise State

DB Anthony Walters, Delaware

DB/KR Mike Holmes, Syracuse

C J.C. Brignone, Mississippi State

G Ricky Henry, Nebraska

DT Corbin Bryant, Northwestern

C Alex Linnenkohl, Oregon State

TE Andre Smith, Virginia Tech

S Dom DeCicco, Pitt

LB Mario Addison, Troy

A couple of notables in the list include a couple of big, talented DB’s who figure to fit into Lovie Smith’s Cover-2 scheme quite well. 

Antareis Bryan checks in at 6-1, 195 lbs with sub-4.4 speed and a lively 40″ vertical.  Jones on the other hand is 5-11, 198 with 4.46 speed who chose the Bears from among 9 offers, citing the opportunity with the Bears as the reason for signing with Chicago.
