ESPN reports after a strong rookie mini-camp, Bears rookie WR Juaquin Iglesias has faded into the background. This is understandable for a first-year receiver, since the light doesn't go on for most until their third season. Meanwhile, fellow rookie WR Johnny Knox continues to impress. Relying on rookie receivers is a dicey proposition, which again highlights the need for the Bears to add another veteran to this group.

The Chicago Sun-Times reports Bears TE Greg Olsen seems to have established himself as a favorite target and the top secondary option of QB Jay Cutler. "He's a very good receiver, but he's a good tight end, too," OC Ron Turner said when asked if Olsen can fill the role that WR Muhsin Muhammad was supposed to play. "Greg has worked hard on his blocking. But he can be a receiver, too, no question about it. We're seeing the evolution of Greg in his third year."
