A low-risk reserve/future signing that amounts to little more than a camp body addition. Headlines confirm this was part of a 16-player futures batch, suggesting minimal individual evaluation weight. Owens offers developmental depth at safety but lacks a standout NFL profile to project roster impact. Fans are largely indifferent, noting the Bears are stockpiling bodies ahead of an important offseason rebuild. He's a long shot to make the 53-man roster but could compete for a practice squad spot.

This signing grades out as a significant overpay for the Chicago Bears — the team is paying more than the on-field production currently warrants. Gervarrius's on-field performance ranks in the bottom quartile among NFL DBs, grading him as an unproven at the position. His $1.0M average annual value ranks as bargain money for the DB market. The concern here is the gap between production and cost — unproven output at bargain money means the team is paying a premium above the player's on-field value. Gervarrius is squarely in his prime, which adds to the deal's upside — the team should get multiple productive seasons out of this contract.
