Former Bears 6-time Pro Bowler urged to sign with conference rival | Sporting News

The Chicago Bears had one of the best receiving cores in the NFL last season with D.J.

Moore, Rome Odunze, and Keenan Allen.

Allen has been one of the best receivers in the NFL over his 12-year career, but is currently still a free agent.

With the offseason coming to an end, many teams will be looking to add depth at some positions heading into training camp, and Bob Rose from Saints Wire thinks the New Orleans Saints should try to sign Allen.

"The Saints have already visited with Gabe Davis, who has some other interest around the league.

Most expected New Orleans to pursue Allen or Amari Cooper because they each played for Moore, but the Saints have shown no interest in either thus far; New Orleans might be counting on second-year wideout Bub Means or newly-signed Donovan Peoples-Jones to step up as the possession receiver out of this group.

Starters Chris Olave and Rashid Shaheed are an explosive tandem, but the Saints may still look to add quality depth with Davis or another signing," Rose wrote.

Last season, Allen appeared in 15 games for the Bears, finishing with 744 receiving yards and seven touchdowns.
