Coach Lovie Smith continues to stock his roster with average-at-best performers from his up-and-down run with the Bears. Conte will compete for a starting spot alongside Bradley McDougald, with (another ex-Bear) Major Wright, Keith Tandy, M.D. Jennings and Shelton Johnson rounding out the position. Conte started 52 games over four seasons with Chicago, but finished last season as the NFL's 63rd-ranked safety out of 87 qualifying players, per Pro Football Focus.
