The way the Chicago Bears kicked off the first day of NFL free agency certainly had the fan base buzzing.
The Bears began the legal tampering periodright awayby signing the top free agent center on the market in Drew Dalmanthus completing their starting offensive line. Throughout the dayChicago made additions up front on the defensive side as well.
Signing both Grady Jarrett and Dayo Odeyingbo to come in and reinforce the defensive linethe Bears were not messing around.
This fan base was justifiably excited.
Who wasn't exactly excitedthoughis one of Ben Johnson's former players. Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown spoke up about the moves Chicago has madethus faron his recent podcast episode.
"Bro I feel like the Bears have unlimited f***ing money. This s*** crazy," he said to his brother on the latest episode of the St. Brown Podcast.
Ryan Poles has officially caught Detroit's attention with a masterful offseason thus far
"They're just signing new s*** for like 4050 million dollars. Joe Thuneyboom. Jonah Jacksonbang. Drew Dalmanbang," he continued. "They have unlimited money. What the f*** is this? Ben (Johnson) just making moves left and right. I'm just like'f***.'"
Clearlythe Bears have one of their rivals flusteredand that's saying something. St. Brown is one of the league's most fierce competitors and he knows Detroit is a powerhouse.
But at the same timethe Lions have lost a whole lot of talent this offseasonspecifically from their coaching staff. Nowhe's watching his old pal Ben at the helm in Chicagoand it's definitely irritated the Lions wideout.
He's not wrongthough. The Bears have been making moves left and right. Adding Joe Thuney and Jonah Jackson before the free agency period even kicked off was massive for the Bears.
But Poles didn't stop there. In facthe was only getting started.
Bears fans probably echo St. Brown's thoughtsthough. This fan base isn't used to Chicago doing all the right thingsand so farthat's what Poles has done. He's attacked the trenches with a relentless mentalityand we haven't even gotten through the bulk of free agencylet alone the draft.
It is going to be a lot of fun watching what Poles continues to do with so many resources still within his reachincluding four draft picks in the top 72as many fans know by now.
