According to NFL Network Drew Stanton has taken his "Dougie" to Indy. Terms of the deal have not been announced.

This is the first offseason since I have been here on this board and the old board that there has been some solid buzz daily. The NFL has kept all of its fans on their collective toes since the end of the season. There has been something newsworthy just about everyday since the end of the season starting with JA getting launched to the current FA frenzy now. I can honestly say that this has kept me stoked and I love it because of all the sports to follow this one does it for me. How does everyone else feel about this?

14 million

There is news that arguably the worst OT in the league has signed with the Seahawks.Have fun Matt Flynn.

http://espn.go.com/chicago/nfl/story/_/id/...altimore-ravens Coery Graham has agreed to sign with the Ravens I hope he plays corner so Marshall can burn him up like he did in the Pro Bowl..Never the less good luck Mr. Graham

I truly believe this is the year to address OL in the draft which will go along way in keeping the Bears competitive now and into the future without over spending in FA. In fact former GM - Bill Polian said today on the Doug Gottlieb show (ESPN Radio) that he would have never spent the $$$ on OG like the Tampa Bucks did for Carl Nicks, simply could not justify that money to that position. Assuming a true LT is not available at 19, I would not be disappointed if we could DRAFT a LG and C that could come in and start from day one. Then in 2013 the Bears can move up in the 1st round if needed to get that stud LT if Williams and Webb can not hold down the fort this y…

1. Jonathan Martin, OT, Stanford ---Finally, a franchise LT for Cutler. 2. Chandler Jones, DE, Syracuse ---Jones looks like, with a few pounds added, a future 8-9 sack NFL player. 3. Josh Norman, CB, Coastal Carolina ---Norman's stock really rose recently, and the Bears need a young CB. 4. TY Hilton, WR, Florida International ---Hilton had a huge pro day, running in the 4.3's. If they're interested in Kendall Wright, a smaller WR, they should look at Hilton as well. 5. Senio Kelemete, OG, Washington ---Emery said OL will be stressed in the draft, and Kelemete is a good player. 6. Aaron Henry, S, Wisconsin ---Depth safety in case, or when, Wright f**…

With Ben Jarvus Green-Ellis signing with Cinci it is another option for Bush gone.

RT @dpbrugler: WR Kendall Wright had dinner with the Bears coaches last night and will visit Chicago early April. Won't get past 19. #NFLDraft (Brugler is a CBS draft guy)

G Williams suspended indefinitely... Loomis out for 8 games....

JA said last year they were happy with the Oline unit as a whole and that it would take time for them to gel as a unit. Everyone else has been calling for an upgrade to he Oline for the last 4 to 5 years. The last decent oline we had was 06 when Thomas Jones and Benson had a good year. Emery takes over and the only big thing that has been done was the Marshal trade. Two things that we know- Williams and Carmi are coming back. This will help the oline unit as a hole. We dont know if Williams is being put back at LT as stated in another thread. My major concern is the LT spot. Webb in my eyes is not good enough to be a starter and should only be a backup in c…

Welcome to NY kiddo!

They have us taking Reily Reiff in the first Cris Givens/WR -Wake Forest in the sencond and Spence/LB-Miami not so thrilled with the WR., but Reiff at 19 is great

http://www.chicagobears.com/news/ChalkTalk...p?STORY_ID=8696 With the Bears signing punt and kickoff returner Eric Weems, do you think they will—dare I say it—look to trade Devin Hester? Why else would they add a Pro Bowl return specialist? The Bears didn’t sign Eric Weems because they wanted to push Devin Hester out the door or reduce his role. They’ve always believed in having as many good returners on the roster as possible, and that’s why they made the move. Weems, who was selected to the Pro Bowl in 2010 as a special teams player, also has excelled covering punts and kickoffs. I recently asked general manager Phil Emery about Hester’s role and he said: “…

The Eagles trade for D.Ryan from Houston. It was for a 4th round pick and a swap of 3rd rounders. Boy would it have been nice to see him in Chicago.

Jensen tweeted the Bears have about $7.5 million left. What are some values we can get?

I'm listening to this guy on the radio and he is getting dangerously close when comparing the Saints "bounty" system to when he was with the Bears. We dont need the attention......

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/...-on-the-market/ Decent article. I think Doucet already signed. But there are some players left in the areas the Bears need.

I have read that Lovie has visited Georgia to see Hill early in the month and now reads he went to see Bruce Irwin/DE/West Virgina. Is there any other players anybody knows we have got to together with.
