Great news for ISUr QB Tre Roberson .. transitioned to CB as UDFA and after spending year+ with Viking's (non-rostered) and then 2 stellar years with CFL, he signs with Bears. Had strong interest from 10 teams, and was reportedly offered tryouts with closer to 15 teams, he will sign with my Bears !!!
ONce he settles in at CB, I would love to see this guy get a shot as PR.

"Roberson, who is viewed as this year’s best CFL-to-NFL prospect, participated in a few workouts and drew the attention of at least 10 teams (https://www.profootballrumors.com/2019/11/cb-tre-roberson-drawing-substantial-interest) during this process. He will join the Bears, however, and for a higher rate than the usual CFL imports receive.The 27-year-old defender will sign for what is believed to be the highest rate for a CFL import since the Dolphins added Cameron Wake (https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/W/WakeCa00.htm?utm_campaign=Linker&utm_source=direct&utm_medium=linker-) in 2009, Schefter adds. Wake received a four-year deal worth nearly $5MM, with close to $1MM guaranteed, 11 years ago. While Roberson will not exactly make high-end cornerback money on this Bears deal, the investment is notable nonetheless."
