This is really making all this speculation kind of pointless.


I agree. IF this guy has/had character problems in college that are significant, then clearly they should have not basically wasted a high number one pick on him. There were many other guys to select from, right? This shit should all have been figured out BEFORE the draft ever occurred.

Bears and first-round pick Roquan Smith working to put finishing touches on agreement and have deal done by end of day, per source. Holdout looks to be coming to an end shortly.

So how long until he gets into a bar fight?

I am now fully prepared to fall in love with him after he has one good game. Fuck that, a good half. Maybe even a nice sack or interception. Bear down.

hope it's true and not an agent ploy to use shefty and rapsheet to force bears hand. (no reason to suspect any shanigans other than both NFL insiders got info and tweeted about it at same time)

Roquan Smith deal is indeed close but source says there are “still some kinks” to be worked out.

Agreed.

As soon as he hits someone hard, I'm All In.

Not me, I'll forever be angry he didn't play in (at least) 2 preseason games I didn't watch.

Bears are giving LB Roquan Smith a four-year, guaranteed $18 million slotted deal, per the CBA. Deal should include about $11 million in form of bonuses.

The #Bears and first-round LB Roquan Smith have agreed to terms on his rookie deal, source said. The holdout is over, he’s coming in. They are finializing the language.

The holdout will impact his entire season.

I doubt he can be a day 1 starter. I doubt he will be able to handle ALL the duties required of MLB.

They are all rough for him.


The Bears first game is still almost a month out. If he can't be a starter, then he isn't as talented as we all assumed he is.

Nobody knows if that's true yet but it's so unlikely I feel comfortable saying it's wrong right now.

He may miss week one. No guarantee he'll beat out Kwiatkowski either, but Trevathan is a ticking bomb with the injuries so he'll inevitably see the field one way or another.

This is finally good news. Don’t see him playing till the last 2 PS games tho. And I’m not 100% confident he’ll start until either the season opener or the final PS game.. but I think he’ll get the starting nod soon enough.


This aside, I’m still not crazy about the ‘talent’ Pace has drafted for this team. The Bears are still very thin on actual game changing talent.

I think there is a good chance he plays on Saturday. I'm excited to see him on the field.

I would be extremely surprised if he dresses for this game.

He at least will have a good jersey number, #58, like Wilbur.

Let's hope he plays like the old great Bear.

Assuming the Bears caved, who gives a fuck..he's here n hopefully he stays healthy n produces.

I gave this drafted a b minus...he's fast n undersized but He's tough ..

Floyd is fast n undersized and I gave his weak ads a D plus.

It's a good day for the Bears.

He'll strain or pull something carrying Trevathan's gear.
