Bears are not matching two-year, $10 million offer sheet that RFA WR Cameron Meredith signed last week with the New Orleans Saints, per league source.

Ryan Pace and Matt Nagy met with Meredith to inform him of decision.

Chris, i know your happier than a pig in s*it, i like it as well, i just pray that knee is good

LMAO at Bears fans justifying it by saying $5 mil/year was too risky since he’s coming off the ACL tear, but they’re giving Allen Robinson $14 million/year coming off an ACL tear.

I like it! Even more flexibility in the draft now. Man I can't wait for football season.

I still say DE and DT in the 1st and we trade up into the 2nd to get one or the other. We'll trade our #2 in 2019 and 1 4, 2 5's and 7 this year.

What made us money last year was primo blocking downfield from our WR's. MT and Coleman were leveling defenders when called on. He's a good WR but if he can block....we got a great deal.

Well, we're not paying $9.6mil/2yrs for a blocker - but if Coach CJ endoresed him, I'd think he'll be a willing AND effective blocker as well...

Here's a pretty good scouting report on Cam Meredith once he established with the Bears from December, 2016...

Agreed.

If healthy Meredith could go nuts with Drew & Thomas. Pace is either gonna look like a genius (gamble White and Robinson) or an idiot. With Ryan's track record .... I'll say the latter

He is not huge but should be big enough to be decently effective as a blocker. Intriguing prospect atleast.
