http://www.fansedge.com/Chicago-Bears-Nike...9939128_PG.html It hit stores last night. The new New Era hats did as well, but those are ugly, so I didn't bother posting a link. This stuff is such a breath of fresh air compared to Reebok. They really packed it in these past few years knowing the end was near, and it showed in their product. Also, the new jerseys will debut Tuesday, per Sean Jensen.

I hope ours are more throwback than anything

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/category/rumor-mill/ Demetrius Bell will visit Packers this week Posted by Mike Florio on April 3, 2012, 10:01 AM EDT Getty ImagesFree-agent tackle Demetrius Bell is getting around. Which means he’s not getting the kind of offer he wants. His free-agent tour will continue this week with a visit to the Packers, according to Rob Demovsky of the Green Bay Press-Gazette. Bell most recently visited the Steelers and Eagles. He was a seventh-round pick of the Bills in 2008.

http://www.chicagobears.com/news/NewsStory.asp?STORY_ID=8716 McShay sees Bears drafting Stanford tackle By: Larry Mayer | Last Updated: 4/2/2012 9:23 AM In his latest mock draft, ESPN analyst Todd McShay is predicting that the Bears will select Stanford offensive tackle Jonathan Martin with the 19th pick in the first round. Jonathan Martin “Martin needs to add some strength, but he could pair with 2011 first-round OT Gabe Carimi to give offensive coordinator Mike Tice a pair of bookends to coach up,” McShay writes. McShay also believes that the Bears will choose Clemson tight end Dwayne Allen in the second round (50th overall). The Bears…

http://www.draftcountdown.com/sub/Mock-Draft-A.php Stephen Gilmore: pretty sure i had him coming to us in my mocks earlier (in 2nd though) Jeff Allen - up and down on him.... seems versatile

Close to the draft, looking at what we got; QB- With Cutler, Campbell, and McGown, we now have a legit backups for a potential problem. Throw Enderle to the scrap heap. RB-Forte, Bush,Bell,Allen and throw in Klutz and we wont be drafting at this position. I would say rock solid at RB. TE-Davis, Spaeth, Adams stick and the A. Smith, and D. Ross will be gone. Not a position of strength but a wait to see with Davis. I dont think think we will draft. WR- Marshall,Bennett,Hester,Davis, Weems,Thomas, Sanz, and Komar. I dont count Knox because I dont think he plays this year. We still need to draft another prospect to be a #2. I think Bennett is a #3 on a goo…

19. Whitney Mercilus 50. Ruben Randle

Denver Washington @ NY Giants @ Cleveland Cool schedule. Peyton Manning and RG3 coming to Chicago, and they'll go to Eli's house and play in Cleveland who will have the 4th overall pick.

http://espn.go.com/blog/chicago/bears/post..._medium=twitter It's interesting to me that the Bears seem to be more focused on OGs in the offseason (Steinbach, Herrera) that OTs. I wonder what the Bears are really thinking for a line-up next year. Lovie recently said that he could see Chris Williams at any position on the line but center and even hinted that they thought Carimi might get a shot at LT if Webb struggled (http://blogs.suntimes.com/bears/2012/03/lovie_smith_casts_support_for_.html).

http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slug=ms-s...s_bounty_040412 I wonder how many games some players will get?

Emery stated that they offered Okoye a contract and he has decided to take visits with several clubs.

Per Twitter: JasonLaCanfora CB Kelvin Hayden agreed to terms with Bears on a 1yr deal 12 minutes ago. I like it. Should be good to have another body in CB, if for nothing else competition.

I don't know a thing about these guys but they can't be studs given the one year deals they're signing.

Would anyone be interested in trading down? They could get a lower 1st, still get Nick Perry, and add a 3rd. Thoughts?

http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/footb...story?track=rss Bears coach Lovie Smith said the team still has plans to add a safety either via free agency or through the draft.

Lets say I wanted to play for the Bears. Can I walk on like some do in college or do I need an agent to get me a tryout?
