00:00Those two guys specifically were brought here to disrupt the quarterback.
00:05Stopping the run is also a priority, but rebuilding the defensive line to the Bears mattered.
00:11Not as much as the offensive line because the need wasn't as acute, but it was certainly
00:141A if rebuilding your offensive line was priority one.
00:19So they did it, and they did it in a very aggressive manner.
00:25From 11.20 to 2.30 yesterday, for three hours, the Bears addressed their biggest needs, and
00:33they bought upgrades at every position that they paid for.
00:36Drew Dallman was the fourth rated center according to Pro Football Focus last year.
00:41The metrics, you don't have to pay attention to them, but when any metrics tells you that
00:45you have a top five guy at his position, it's money well spent.
00:50Did you overpay?
00:51Possibly.
00:52You had the money to overpay.
00:53That's what struggling non-playoff teams do in free agency.
00:56They overpay because they have to.
01:00And then when you go out and you get Dayo Odengbo and you get Grady Jarrett, you are
01:06definitely giving your new defensive coordinator the weapons to have an elite defense.
01:13Elite meaning top five, top ten defense.
01:15That should be what the Bears aspire to be.
01:17The secondary is going to be pretty good.
01:20If Jaquan Brisker comes back, as it seems like his tweets are suggesting he's going
01:24to be part of this, then great, because they need him.
01:28They need everyone healthy.
01:29Their linebackers will benefit from this.
01:32This Bear defense had a better day than the Bear offense, but last week was the Bears
01:35offense's turn.
01:37So right now, they have gotten the message.
01:40Championship teams win when they build from the ball on out, and that's what the Bears
01:45did yesterday.
