Summary

The Bears remain an elite fantasy defense because of their great return man (Devin Hester) and tendency to create turnovers. Chicago had 20 interceptions and nine fumble recoveries last season - both totals were among the best in the league. And Hester is a dynamic return man, capable of scoring every time he touches the ball. He makes this unit elite. Chicago's defense was especially tough against the run last year, ranking 5th overall while their pass defense ranked just 28th. The pass defense remains a concern for the Bears but should be improved some if the defense can stay healthier this year. Linebacker Brian Urlacher is the heart and soul of the defense and can dominate a game.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
The special teams really help the value of this unit. If not for Hester, this squad is more middle of the pack than anything. But with Hester around and some guys getting healthy, consider the Bears a legit No. 1 fantasy defense. They won't get you a ton of sacks but have some touchdown potential and are usually an opportunistic unit under Lovie Smith.

comments about Charles Tillman

Notes

The Chicago Bears can free up much-needed salary cap space by signing players such as CB Tim Jennings, WR Brandon Marshall and CB Charles Tillman to extensions. However, general manager Phil Emery is very careful in doing such moves, and nothing is believed to be imminent.

The Chicago Bears could target CB Charles Tillman for a multiyear extension. He is due $8 million, with a matching cap hit, in 2013. A long-term deal would lower his salary cap charge for this year.

The Chicago Bears could consider signing CB Charles Tillman to an extension during the offseason because he will be entering the final year of his contract. The team could look to complete an extension in order to reduce his salary cap hit for 2013.

Chicago Bears CB Charles Tillman said Detroit Lions WR Calvin Johnson is the complete package as far as football players are concerned. 'He can do everything,' Tillman said of Johnson. 'He's the LeBron James of football. If you could create a player - that's Calvin Johnson. Size, speed, hands, agility, quickness, strength.'
