I bet R1b (df27 or s28) will be common there too

Can someone GEDmatch it?

Probably R1a, since Poles are Slavs.

If it's I1, it's probably either Gothic remnants or German colonists. Native Slavic Poles are never I1. I1 men who think they are native Slavic Poles are descended paternally from Germanic foreigners.

This is not even published yet... but it will be very soon, because they are testing it now (link). :)

They just sent the bones to laboratory for DNA testing, we should get the results in a few years.

It is not necessary true. Stears is I1 and his surname is most likely of Polish origin.

Could there be I1 among people of the Lusatian Culture?

I don't think those people spoke Germanic languages:
