Ricky Manning Jr. Signs Bears Offer Sheet

With the draft one week from today, the Chicago Bears may have opened up a few doors for themselves but closing down of their needs. The Bears signed Ricky Manning Jr. of the Carolina Panthers to a 5 yr., $21 million dollar offer sheet. The Panthers “have almost no chance or desire to match” the offer. Considering how stout the Chicago defense was this past year, this is a great addition to the defense. He adds depth to an already good secondary, which includes Vasher and Tillman. If the offer sheet stands, the Panthers would receive a 3rd round pick in the draft.
