Charles Tillman, CB aka "Peanut" signs with Panthers

I have paid zero attention to this guy or the Bears in general.

Please someone tell me how to feel about this.

Would've felt better if it was Tillman of 5 or so years ago, but no real reason to feel bad about it. He's a great locker room guy and will be a solid mentor to the young corners.

This is more of a depth/mentoring signing.  That dude can teach players how to punch the ball out for fumbles better than anyone.  Doubt he has the speed to play outside corner anymore...

He was very good back when he was young, healthy and coached by Rivera.

 

Only one of those things is guaranteed at this point, and one is definitely no longer true.

 

He's reputed to be a great teammate in the mold of Thomas Davis though, so we'll see.

    • I'll be patiently waiting to see what OL additions we snatch off the waiver wire.
    • Look don't get me wrong here. I'm not arguing it's going to just change his arm talent overnight. I'm just saying doing anything on the physical front after the GM who stuck his neck out for him over the concerns around his physical traits got fired is better than doing nothing. That's another layer. It could easily be argued overall he needed to add at least 10 pounds not just for the sake of working in the pocket and not going down so easily but let's be honest eventually no matter how much we invest in the OL he's going to get hit some and those hits will add up. His frame as it stands is only going to absorb so much over a 17 game season. Oh definitely good or bad we will have to run a lot of under center stuff. Bryce will either look good or flounder. But our offense will remain stagnant if we just keep running shotgun plays 90% of the time. You're telegraphing your offense otherwise. That's why I'm not giving Chuba Hubbard too hard of a time over his YPC last year. We weren't fooling anyone. We'll see what Canales has cooked up. It better be pretty damn clever.
    • Why would a team ever not be aggressive in improving the roster? It may look different from year to year but even the best rosters churn at the bottom. That's a no-brainer.
