The first couple of weeks of free agency are in the books, and the Chicago Bears have added a handful of new players to the roster.
While Bears general manager Ryan Poles invested a lot into the linebacker position, he also negotiated some bargain contracts for starters and depth pieces.
Still, the Bears are sitting in a great position with the salary cap. They still have around $38 million in available cap space — most in the league — to make additional moves in the later waves of free agency and for the upcoming rookie draft class.
Here’s a look at the basic contracts for the Bears’ new additions during the first wave of free agency:
