Undrafted free agency may not hold the same glamour. Even so, it is of the same importance. Great teams are often built through success on the undrafted market. The Chicago Bears should know. Their last championship team had quite a few notable ones on it. GM Ryan Poles and head coach Ben Johnson wasted no time locking up some intriguing prospects following the draft on April 26th.

He still needs to expand his inventory of pass rush moves, but the tools are there for him to use.
