(Sports Network) - The Bears addressed two major needs during free agency, pulling off a blockbuster deal for quarterback Jay Cutler on April 2nd, and also adding former Pro Bowler Orlando Pace, along with Kevin Shaffer (ex- Browns) and Frank Omiyale (ex-Panthers), to bolster the tackle position. With picks No. 49 and No. 99, the team will likely target contributors at wide receiver and/or the secondary. Given Nathan Vasher's injury problems and Charles Tillman's general struggles last year, a cornerback would be nice. Next on the agenda should be adding some numbers to a front seven that neither rushed the passer nor stopped the run with much consistency a year ago.
