Ryan Poles' biggest additions disappoint in Bears loss to Packers: Edmunds, Edwards, Claypool & more
26:33 Share

Justin Fields and Luke Getsy have rightfully been at the center of the criticism coming from the Chicago Bears Week 1 loss to the Green Bay Packers, but one of the overlooked themes from the game was the big free agent signings and trades underachieving.

Tremaine Edmunds and TJ Edwards couldn't take away the middle of the field. DeMarcus Walker and Rasheem Green weren't disruptive on the defensive line. Nate Davis and Lucas Patrick couldn't block up front. And Chase Claypool did not give good effort.

The silver lining was many of Poles' draft picks showing promise.
