G-MEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Did the Bears trade last year's pick they received from NYJ for Jones to SD for their 2nd 3rd round pick this year, or did they trade that pick they got from NYJ to SD and got SD's 3rd and maybe a 4th rounder of last year's draft?

Well I gotta say I could really give a s*** about the Super Bowl this year. Just wondering how everyone else feels...do we have any Pats love on this site?

http://www.nydailynews.com/blogs/jets/2008...-on-faneca.html Jets close in on Faneca The free-agent signing period opened at midnight, and the Jets were expected the strike quickly. The target: Steelers LG Alan Faneca. The Jets are poised to make Faneca an $8 million-a-year offer and, barring an upset, they will get their man. The official announcement may not happen for a day or two, but those in the know believe it’s a fait accompli. It’s never done until the ink is on the paper, but the Jets are expected to outbid the Rams and 49ers. Faneca, 31, is a seven-time Pro Bowl selection. He would fill a gaping hole at left guard, sliding between LT D’Br…

Discuss.

What Bears jerseys do you guys have? I have a Authentic Orange Devin Hester home jersey. And a Authentic Blue Devin Hester home jersey. First two jersey's I have ever gotten. the Orange one is sewn and the other one is not. Next one in line I am thinking about getting is a Charles Tillman one. Glad I didn't get a Berrian one like I wanted to last year lol

Next years draft is not a deep one for our current needs, except for maybe WR which may work out for us. The 2009 draft will be known for LB's. There are also a few SS listed top 25 and some CB's. Walters 2009 mock draft OL 1. Michael Oher OT Ole Mis top 5 2. Alex Mack C, Cal top 20 3. Duke Robinson G, Oklahoma top 25 4. Herman Johnson G, LSU top 25 5. Phil Loadholt OT, Oklahoma top 25 6. Andre Smith OT, Alabama top 25 RB 1. Chris Wells RB, Ohio St. top 10 2. Knowshon Moreno RB, Georgia top 15 3. C. J. Spiller RB, Clemson top 25 QB 1. Tim Tebow QB, Florida top 5 2.

From the sound of it, negotiations are picking up. The Sun Times is reporting Harris' camp has received a new offer from the Bears. Harris was supposed to meet w/ Rosenarce to discuss the offer. The Sun Times was also showing the top 3 DT contracts The article talks about how Harris is going to want to be paid more than any on this list, and any offer from the bears below Kelly's, would likely not go over well. My question is this. Last year, Harris said he believes he should be paid in line w/ the top defensive players in the NFL. He didn't say top DTs, but defensive players. I have also read that Rosenarce is likely going to use Freeney's d…

No. 14: Bears - RB Rashard Mendenhall, Illinois Rashard Mendenhall may just be the best running back in the draft. (Doug Pensinger / Getty Images) The Monsters of the Midway need to rebuild an aging and ineffective offensive line, so they're disappointed to see both Ryan Clady and Chris Williams off the board. Even though GM Jerry Angelo drafted Cedric Benson at No. 4 overall just three years ago, this running game is in need of a major boost. Mendenhall is a local product who starred at Niles West High School, and his presence will allow offensive coordinator Ron Turner to get back to the two-pronged ground game that was so successful in 2006 with Benson and t…

1st Round - Pick #14 - Chris Williams, OT, Vanderbilt - With Clady off the board, the Bears had their choice between Williams, Albert, and Otah. These picks can be argued back and forth, but Williams seems to be the one most ready to help out this year. He is a stellar pass blocker (only 2 sacks allowed in over 1,500 snaps) who needs to improve on his run blocking. He only did 21 reps at the combine, but he can always improve his strength. Williams will always be compared to Otah and Albert. Reminds me of Tommie Harris vs Vince Wilfork. Grade: A- 2nd Round - Pick #44 - Matt Forte, RB, Tulane - This was one of those picks that can easily be disputed as much as it …

The draft is over and the Bears did not address QB until afterwards with Hanie and Hill. Let's discuss what they should do now. My thoughts: - Rex and Kyle are going to battle it out for starter. Whomever wins out gets extended if they succeed. - Wait for FA Qbs to hit the market from teams like Tampa (Simms, McCown, and Gradkowski may all be released) and bring in a 3rd stringer. - Put Hill and Hanie both on the practice squad. We have 8 spots and 1 to 2 should be devoted to QB going forward. Going forward, the Bears should bring in an asst QB coach (we have an asst DB coach, why not one for our most important position). Finally, the Bears o…

http://chicagobearsfanforum.com/blog/?p=257 The Bears * Former Bear Roosevelt Colvin is claiming interest from the Cleveland Browns and the New York Jets. Michael david Smith at profootballtalk.com thinks it might be a ploy to drum up interest (and I agree). * Bob LeGere writes a nice piece on Bears new/old WR Marty Booker. On the QB "competition": "Dude, in my career I've had like almost 20 different quarterbacks (17 actually), so as far as adjusting to anybody, that's not a problem," he said. "That's the least of everything." Booker might or might noot have the savvy that Muhsin Muhammad had but its pretty evident h…

Pretty crazy. They found him unconscience on the street in Vegas.

So let's say you have heard that the Packers don't want Brett Farve back because he has retired and the Packers have moved on to Mr.Rodgers neighborhood. Would you as the GM for the Bears make a move for him if he still wants to play and the Packers cut him?

There are 4 highlight videos on youtube, 1 for each day of camp ( is the first), and 4 commentary videos by the guy who taped the highlights. The highlight videos should be checked out by everyone on the board, very good quality and truly worth it. The commentary is pretty cool too since it gives a first hand account from a guy who was watching it live. The videos show several nice passes from Rex and Kyle. Benett, R.Davis, K. Davis, and Hass had some very nice catches too. The stuff that didn't make the highlights is what we need to rely on the director for. By all appearances he seems pretty unbiased and so far he thinks Rex is pulling away in the QB battle. A…

Here are some of highlights. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gGFY5cafLTg I will never forget when he had the 2 ints in OT back in 2001. Great, great moment as a Bears fan. Peace

I know it's just a preseason game but with so many questions (who looked better- Rex or Kyle?, how did Forte look?, how did Bradley look?, etc), I thought it'd be a good idea.

Nice article on last yrs picks. I think Okwo might be gone especially considering how Roach has looked. http://www.suntimes.com/sports/football/be...-bsep09.article Peace

Looking thru the stats today, I could not believe Jeffery was still 2nd on the team in receiving yards. He also has the longest reception by a WR this year at 42 yards. It will be really nice to have him back in the mix with Bennett and Hester opposite of Marshall (who is tearing it up).
