Bears signed sixth-round FB J.D. Runnels to a four-year contract.

The 195th player drafted overall is a rare breed these days; a pure fullback. He started 20 games at Oklahoma and should make the Bears if he’s strong on special teams.

Bears FB J.D. Runnels will miss the season after tearing his ACL in OTAs.

This explains Obafemi Ayanbadejo’s signing. Runnels, Adrian Peterson’s former lead blocker at Oklahoma, will have appeared in just two games in his first two seasons heading to 2008. He was a sixth-round pick a year ago.

Bengals signed WRs Mario Urrutia and Maurice Purify, OL James Blair, CB Marcus Brown, OL Digger Bujnoch, DE Victor DeGrate, and FB J.D. Runnels to reserve/future contracts.

They’ll all go to offseason workouts with Cincinnati. Urrutia was the Bengals’ seventh-round pick in 2008 and has lots of talent. He could get a long look in the spring if T.J. Houshmandzadeh leaves in free agency.
