The Chicago Bears added seven players to their roster during the 2026 NFL Draft, addressing a ton of prominent needs remaining on the team's roster.
However, general manager Ryan Poles shouldn't be done on the player acquisition front. Though Chicago is in a fantastic position to go back-to-back in the NFC North, there are still a few positions that could use some reinforcements heading into the summer.
That said, let's go over four remaining free agents the Bears should target with the draft in the books.
Though Dayo Odeyingbo is a fine starter, Chicago should look to find an upgrade over him in the edge rusher room to help out Montez Sweat.
Bosa is slowing down and is no longer the elite pass rusher he was with the Los Angeles Chargers at the start of his career. However, the 30-year-old would still add much-needed juice to the Bears' pass rush.
In 2025 with the Buffalo Bills, Bosa tallied five sacks and 47 quarterback pressures. The veteran also led the league in forced fumbles with five.
With the Bears having just $10 million in cap space, they would need Bosa to come for cheap, which is possible, given that he's still on the market in late April.
Clowney is also a free-agent edge rusher option for Chicago.
The former No. 1 overall pick was quietly productive for the Dallas Cowboys last season, posting 8.5 sacks and 40 quarterback pressures in 13 games while in a rotational role on the Cowboys' defense.
Chicago could sign Clowney to play the same role he played in Dallas, as it's clear that's the best place for the three-time Pro Bowler at this stage of his career.
Miller is already scheduled to have a tryout with the Bears sometime next week, so we know the team is interested in the veteran wide receiver.
Though Miller isn't going to make a massive impact on offense, he is a valuable special-teams contributor who could serve as a returner or as a gunner.
Miller would be a nice player to have on the roster heading into camp due to his experience, especially in the playoffs, as the 28-year-old won a Super Bowl with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers during the 2020 season.
Decker requested his release from the Detroit Lions in March after spending the first 10 years of his career in the Motor City.
Though Decker has struggled with injuries over the last few years, which led to him considering retirement at one point, the 32-year-old is still a viable starting left tackle who was selected to the Pro Bowl just two seasons ago in 2024.
During his final year in Detroit in 2025, Decker allowed two sacks and 33 quarterback pressures in 14 starts. The Bears could sign the Ohio State product to compete for the starting job at left tackle with Braxton Jones.
