I dont remember who on here was touting the horn for Randy Moss and wanted them on the Bears BUT 28-434-3TDs Was that worth the 2.5 mil he was paid. And I think they wanted TO too. 0-0-0 ANOTHER BAD IDEA, DOES ANYBODY REMEMBER WHO THAT WAS? Im to lazy to look up the thread.(to busy making up Te'o stories)

per walterfootball.com

So who is going to win tonight? Who does everyone prefer? I like both teams really, love Baltimore's defence but San Francisco is a very solid and exciting team as well.... I have to go with Baltimore, they are veterans in the big games and the Ravens will be playing big for Lewis's last game.

http://espn.go.com/blog/chicago/bears/post...ke-cutler-great Boom. Cutler for MVP.

http://www.chicagobears.com/news/article-1...a4-54920f468e1a Excited about Trestman and the direction of the organization, and will be working with Jeffery starting on Monday. That mentorship is great to see.

So I was perusing a recent article in SI (and I believe Bleacher Report - OH THE HORROR!!) and saw a nugget about this kid out of Vanderbilt. Yes, that Vanderbilt. Anyhow "they" went on to say that he is a late round prospect (something like #18th rated in upcoming QB's). So the question to be asked, could he be a project QB that the Bears should/could entertain in later rounds...like 6 or 7? (Remember, Tom Brady was a 6th rounder). Anyhow, he is enticing not only because he is from Cutler's alma mater but also Aaron Rodgers little brother. And like the BR's article I read suggested, wouldn't that make for an interesting story line? http://www.greenbaypressgaz…

Urlacher makes a pretty strong case to re-sign him. I thought his wording was interesting. He seems to understand that to stay on this team, he is going to have to take a pay cut. I wouldn't mind bringing him back for a 2-year incentive laden deal. This would allow us to focus the draft on other needs.

https://www.profootballfocus.com/blog/2013/...ffensive-lines/ I want better than adequate at LT but Webb deserves a shot somewhere on the line.

Lets say we pick up nobody in FAgency, then who should we draft. Our weaknesses are OL,OL,OL, TE, MLB. so lets do a draft. #1 Lane Johnson/OT/Oak A slight drop below the top 2 but worthy of a pick here, will not make it out of the first round. #2 Larry Warford/OG/Ken A load for a guard with a good pick at 2 #4 Travis Kelce/TE/Cinn A good pass catching TE #5 Jake Johnson/MLB/Sou Ala A highly productive small school player with speed and production that could be a steal drafted here. #6 David Bass/DE/MWS Another highly productive small school player, drafting this low, you take a chance Conclusion- we needed to …

I agree.

As my mind goes and I study more I have a new game plan for today anyway. We resign Scott, Louis, Melton, Roach. We pick up in FAgency Wheeler MLB.Bushrod LT, Donnie Avery WR In the draft I found a trade partner Cinn. They have two second round picks and have needs of a #2 WR and a MLB. So we trade our #20 for for #37 and #84 in the third round. Also a #6 as they have two in that round. #2 (37) Zack Ertz-TE-Stanford Need a definite upgrade at TE #2 (50) Larry Warford-OG-Kent A LG that will start from day one #3 (84) Kevin Reddick-MLB-NC A productive LB with speed #4 Brian Schwenke-OC-Cal Could take Garza spot as much as next…

RT @ESPNChiBears: #Bears sign safety Tom Nelson to a one-year deal, per a league source. RT @ESPNChiBears: Nelson, a native of Arlington Heights, Ill., played high school ball at Hersey then at ISU. Spent 2 years w/#Bengals. Also time w/ #Eagles.

*based off of Chicago signing nobody in FA* 1. Lane Johnson, T, Oklahoma --I'm not a huge fan, but Johnson will be the best OT prospect left. He probably needs 2-3 years development to be an NFL LT. 2. Kyle Long, G, Oregon --Great bloodlines and a nasty player. One day, he might be an OT. Perfect. 4. Kevin Reddick, MLB, North Carolina --Reddick had a good career. His last year started slow but ended fast. He ended the year with 74 tackles, 6 TFL, 2 sacks, 5 PBU, and 1 INT. 5. Jasper Collins, WR, Mount Union --Small, lighting quick WR out of a school that shockingly produces good WR's. 6. Brian Schwenke, C, California --Center depth. Garza's contract is…

RT @danpompei: Former Bears safety Chris Harris hired as defensive quality control coach with the Bears, source says.

I loves me a 3-4 defense, I hate the Packers but seeing their 3-4 2 times a year makes me feel like I'm missing out almost. Seeing Clay Matthews wild girly lookin self running wild is something I would love to see our undersized "DE" 1st round draft pick of last year SMC (Until he does something I refuse to learn how to spell his name) do to squeeze more value out of him. With the money they have, they need to bring Melton and Roach back and a LT must be brought in (unless they feel comfortable with Webb in a new scheme) to make this work. With that said they would have to make the change to a 3-4 through the draft by grabbing another LB and a monster DT.....IF Emery and …

The Bears have hired Dwayne Stukes and Sean Desai to be the assistant ST coach and one of the defensive QB coaches, respectively. Stukes played in the NFL, NFL Europe, and the AFL and last coached in the NFL in 2011 as Tampa Bay's ST coach. Sean Desai has been in the college ranks including times at Miami, Boston College, and Temple. This is interesting because he has an Indian last name. I wonder if 1) he is Indian and 2) how many other Indian coaches are in the NFL? They also have hired Tim Tibesar as the LB coach. He worked under Trestman for 3 years in Montreal and used to be the Purdue DC. (mods, can you edit this thread title to include Tibesar's name…

So this article caught my attention yesterday: http://www.twincities.com/vikings/ci_22440...r-bill-callahan Although I'm not quite sure what happened in reading this article Trestman's silence is worth noting. That and stories that have circulated that Trestman has been difficult to work with in the past could gain traction and especially explain why he didn't get his chance in the big time until as of late. I can tell you that Callahan is in fact a pile of dung. Being a follower of Nebraska football I can tell you between he and AD Peterson in the early 2000's they knocked Nebraska football back a few years by tinkering with what worked for decades. Call…

According to profootballtalk.com Jake Long is looking for at least $10 million annually. That would put him up there with dude from Cleveland as highest pd LT whose deal was 7 yrs $84 mil with $48 gtd. How many are willing to give that to him knowing hes had injuries for past 3 yrs now

Round1 - Alec Ogletree ILB Ga - With Urlachers days numbered, the Bears need to find a new center fielder to cover the middle. Emery has also stated that in round 1, he wants players that can win you games and be the difference maker. I think his speed/athletism will be a big boost to an aging D. They can opt to hold back and take someone like Fluker or Jones and have a solid player, but they are not known as players that can win games by themselves. I think going D in round 1 will give the Bears the freedom to use the rest of the draft rebuild the offense. Round2 - Trade to San Fransico for two 3rds, a 4th, and a 5th. San Fran had an abundance of picks anywa…
