Bearstalk

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.

I keep hearing about him trying LT again. Personally, I think he has the tools to succeed, but hasn't had too much of a shot. Play pro's and con's, coming into his fourth year, he hasn't stayed too healthy. On the plus side, he's smart, has quick feet and pedigree. I want the Carimi to the left talk to stop. He is a prototypical right tackle. Plus, he makes a nasty companion to our nasty RG Louis. Just sayin', give the kid a shot. Make Webb the swing tackle and draft a nasty G and C. One to start, one to groom.

During the interview with Cutler and Marshall, Jay mentioned that having Jermemy Bates here installing some of the things they did in Denver was going to be big for him and Brandon since they both are familiar with the system. I can't say I watched too many of Denver's games back when Cutler was there so I don't know exactly what this means for our passing game. Perhaps some of the folks here that are more football savvy can explain what we're likely to see in our passing game this year. Interview link: http://www.chicagobears.com/multimedia/mul...clip=Y&rn=2 I just watched the interview with Emery and he said "people will be surprised how Tice's new …

Per Schefter/Mort. Tebow will be traded (or at least they will try and trade him). No deal signed, just that Manning has directed his agent to work out a deal with Denver. There are reports that he will get 20M per year and will be signing a 5 year deal. Pretty crazy amount of dough for a guy coming off 3 neck surgeries.

The best out of division opponents for this year are SF, HOU, DAL, and TEN, and none of those are really scary teams. 11-12 wins seems fairly reasonable to me.

Draft is end of April? Then when does camp open?

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/category/rumor-mill/ Wimbley is “close” to agreeing on a five-year contract to take his talents to Tennessee.

I found it interesting that the latest mock from Walter Football.com has us taking Coples at #19. Before free agency it seemed as if Coples was a lock to land in the top 10. But Cambell suggests it may not be the case. http://walterfootball.com/draft2012charlie_1.php Buffalo could always grab another DE in the first to pair up with Mario Williams, so that is always a possibility. But a team like Miami might have to take a quarterback now with Flynn and Manning both turning them down during the free agency period. It's an interesting proposition we'd have if Coples slips. He had a down year for a senior but his combine was impressive and the measura…

https://twitter.com/#/AdamSchefter/status/181488531305267200 Has a team had a worse offseason than Miami has so far? You lose out on Peyton Manning, trade your best WR for 2x 3rd rounders, and now miss out on Matt Flynn.

Looking at what we have done so far and what other teams added and lost how many games do you see us winning this year. The bold are home games. Chicago Bears vs.Green Bay Packers Chicago Bears vs.Detroit Lions Chicago Bears vs.Minnesota Vikings Chicago Bears vs.San Francisco 49ers Chicago Bears vs.Seattle Seahawks Chicago Bears vs.Houston Texans Chicago Bears vs.Indianapolis Colts Chicago Bears vs.Carolina Panthers Green Bay Packers vs.Chicago Bears Detroit Lions vs.Chicago Bears Minnesota Vikings vs.Chicago Bears Arizona Cardinals vs.Chicago Bears St Louis Rams vs.Chicago Bears Jacksonville Jaguars vs.Chicago Bears Tenness…

We need to have him out of our divison becasue if he goes to the 49ers he will be throwing to Manningham, Michael Crabtree and Randy Moss. And we play them this year!
