Ryan Pace will have final say on the Chicago Bears' roster and on their head coach.

“The 53-man roster, to answer your question, yes,” Pace said when asked if he has final say. “But my experience is in New Orleans, the relationship between the head coach and General Manager, that’s critical. So is the head coach and the quarterback. Those are the two most important relationships in the building.” 

Pace is the NFL's youngest general manager.

“I’m 37, but I’ve seen a lot,” Pace said. “I don’t look at my age, I look at my experience in New Orleans.

"I don't want you guys thinking I'm some moneyball GM. That's not me," said Pace.
