The Chicago Bears are going to want to keep their eyes on plenty of free agency situations across the NFL landscape to continue to improve their roster. If they are going to look at the Philadelphia Eagles, which free agents are most likely to get away, and are there any potential roster cuts or trades this offseason?

3. Will the Chicago Bears sign offensive line depth from the Philadelphia Eagles?

The Philadelphia Eagles are expected to see Jason Kelce retire, but they appear prepared for it. His retirement seems unlikely to impact the decision between either Jack Driscoll or Sua Opeta to hit free agency. If either does, they will be depth options for the Chicago Bears, who need it. 

Driscoll is a former fourth-round pick who was drafted in 2020. He played 712 snaps at right tackle, 475 snaps at right guard, and 150 snaps at left tackle during the four years he played with the Eagles. That is the type of versatility the Bears need to find in free agency this offseason to continue building their trenches. 

Sua Opeta is a UDFA from the 2019 draft class; he has stuck with the Eagles but is also a free agent this year. He has played 516 snaps at right guard and 498 snaps at left guard. With the injury track records from Teven Jenkins and Nate Davis, they are going to need to sign players of this caliber to make sure they can survive this. Is Sua Opeta a great fit for the Chicago Bears?
