Bears Linked To BIG Free Agents… But Can They Actually Do It?! | Ben Johnson Explains Roush Pick

Author: The B.R.E.A.K.S Media April 30, 2026 Duration: 21:17

The Chicago Bears’ 2026 NFL Draft conversation is still heating up 🔥🐻⬇️

Ben Johnson finally explained why the Bears selected Stanford tight end Sam Roush in the third round — and it gives a major clue about what Chicago wants this offense to become. Roush brings toughness, physicality, and elite blocking ability, making him a strong fit for Johnson’s love of heavier personnel and a more physical run game.

But that’s not the only Bears storyline today.

Chicago has also been named a possible fit for veteran free agents Taylor Decker and Cameron Jordan, two players with obvious connections to the coaching staff. Decker has history with Ben Johnson, while Jordan has a long-standing connection to Dennis Allen. The problem? The Bears’ cap situation could make both moves difficult.

Plus, draft expert Matt Miller gave major praise to three Bears picks: Dillon Thieneman, Malik Muhammad, and Keyshaun Elliott. Thieneman was viewed as a major first-round value, Muhammad was praised as a possible steal, and Elliott was highlighted as another best-player-available selection.

Haize breaks down:

  • Why Ben Johnson wanted Sam Roush
  • How Roush fits with Colston Loveland and Cole Kmet
  • Taylor Decker and Cameron Jordan Bears rumors
  • Why the Bears may not have the money to make a major move
  • Matt Miller’s praise for Thieneman, Muhammad, and Elliott
  • Whether Ryan Poles’ Day 2 draft concerns are still fair

The Bears may be done drafting, but the roster conversation is far from over.
