The Chicago Bears are bracing for an aggressive offseason as they aim to improve their offensive line to better protect quarterback Caleb Williams, who faced significant pressure during his rookie season, leading to 68 sacks. With the NFL Combine creating buzz, GM Ryan Poles plans to target several impactful free agents, particularly in the interior offensive line. Key targets include center Drew Dalman and guards Will Fries and Aaron Banks, with their strategy reminiscent of the Carolina Panthers' successful free agency moves last year.

As free agency approaches, expectations are high for Poles to deliver upgrades, especially given the intense pressure surrounding his roster-building efforts. Fans are eager for the Bears to make strategic investments in veteran talent, particularly for the offensive line, which was a critical weakness last season. Anything less than two new starters will likely be viewed as a disappointment.
