![]() ![]() ![]() As for who will be behind Skrine, I think that question is interesting. ![]() Skrine will be the primary nickel on the Bears in 2020. Before joining Chicago, Skrine was a part of both the Cleveland. Bill Zimmerman: The short answer here is No. the NBA, the NHL, the Chicago Cubs, the Chicago Bears, the Chicago Bulls, and the Chicago Blackhawks. Eleven-year NFL veteran Buster Skrine is hitting free agency in 2021 after being with the Chicago Bears for two seasons. Skrine’s Pro Football Reference profile notes that he lined up at cornerback, linebacker and strong safety in 2018. The Chicago Bears will be without several key members of their secondary this weekend, as cornerbacks Jaylon Johnson and Buster Skrine will miss Sunday’s game against the Minnesota Vikings. Or say "F it" and go for the ring this year (Ala the Rams last year) and worry about the cap later. Buster Skrine has a great football name, fitting of a cornerback who will play the slot in Chicago. The 2 ways to approach this offseason, I thought were to think big picture and go for the comp picks and long-term competitive outlook. And if Pagano wants a nickel that can blitz, would have been better to go after Brian Poole who is A) better than Skrine, B) probably not more expensive than Skrine and C) had 3 sacks in 2018, and D) would have not cost a potential comp pick. Its a huge downgrade in talent, and not necessarily a huge downgrade in cost. PFF graded him out as average overall at CB, but on the lower end of the average group. And he was like 4th for DBs in QB pressures, so he fits what Pagano likes to do and blitz from the nickel. I guess he really impressed Nagy when the Bears played the Jets last year. But the Skrine move looks pretty bad to me. Not necessarily a guy I'd sign Day 1, but not a bad player and a good fit. ![]()
