I was looking at our roster and found that we have not four but six TE'S in the stable. I know that some will not be around for long ang gusy are brought in to see it the fit our system and for camp purposes but look at the list below. So are we posied to kept 3 or four? 1. Richard Angulo 6'8 260 2. Kevin Brock 6'5 255 3. Desmond Clark 6'3 249 4. Kellen Davis 6'7 262 5. B Manumaleuna 6'2 295 6. Greg Olsen 6'5 255

Kevin Siefert from ESPN sat down with Lovie Smith over breakfast today. He suggests there's an Olsen article coming up later, here's some talk on the makeup of their lines.

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/category/rumor-mill/ Overtime proposal passes Posted by Michael David Smith on March 23, 2010 3:22 PM ET The National Football League owners have approved a change in overtime, starting with the playoffs following the 2010 season, that will modify the sudden-death format and prevent a team from winning a game with a field goal on the opening possession. The vote was 28-4, with the Buffalo Bills, Minnesota Vikings, Baltimore Ravens and Cincinnati Bengals voting against. It needed at least 24 votes to pass. "It was really a good discussion in the sense that there's been a lot of debate, both publicly and privately, ove…

Due to the fact that my Bears season ticket $ and the ton of $ I owe for taxes this year are due at about the same time, I am going to be unable to afford my Bears tickets. That being said I don't really want to lose them. So, I would like to sell them for this year. I have 3 tickets. The grand total is $2,048 for 3 tickets to 10 games (2 preseason games). I usually sell the preseason games and never have a problem unloading them. Email me @ jesse2033@gmail.com for further information including seat location and payment details. I would rather sell them to somebody on here who would enjoy them as opposed to someone who is just going to scalp them.

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2010/...he-trade-block/ I wonder what it will take and if we have enough, but the possibility of getting a young starting quality guard should at least be looked at.

Bears | Will listen to offers for Olsen Comment (0) Fri, 19 Mar 2010 07:51:10 -0700 Updating previous reports, Neil Hayes, of Chicago Sun-Times, reports the Chicago Bears will listen to offers for TE Greg Olsen even though general manager Jerry Angelo has insisted he is not shopping Olsen. My question is if you are not going to trade him why listen? Sounds like a smokescreen to me. Bears | Could have interest in Grant Comment (0) Fri, 19 Mar 2010 07:47:36 -0700 Neil Hayes, of the Chicago Sun-Times, reports the Chicago Bears could have interest in unrestricted free-agent FS Deon Grant (Seahawks). Deon Grant is this worth a lo…

http://blogs.nfl.com/2010/03/18/watson-los...-and-quickness/ Dekoda watson----------------- While players’ weight may fluctuate from the NFL Scouting Combine to their pro day, it is rare that it changes significantly. Florida State’s Dekoda Watson, however, defies the norm. He checked in at 240 pounds at the combine, but dropped all the way to 226 pounds Florida State’s pro day. The weight loss resulted in a much faster time in the 40-yard dash. He ran the 40 in 4.46 and 4.40 seconds at the pro day, after posting a mark of 4.56 seconds at the combine. He also flashed impressive quickness, completing the three-cone drill in 6.84 seconds. Wow, are u kidd…

I know hes been rediculously strange the past two years, but 2004-2007 totally dominant. http://theredzone.org/BlogDescription/tabi...ws/Default.aspx

I think we are gearing up some funds to get this guy, but is this why we cant offer him a contract? Is it true he has til June 1st to sign? after that im guessing hes cut and its a bidding war...

Per Biggs and Schefter. http://www.chicagobreakingsports.com/2010/...ack-vasher.html

I know this is off base but just wondering if anyone knows of a Cubs forum like we have here for the Bears.

You want a contract? try learning to play football!!! http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/footb...0,3055776.story God i hope someone wants him and we get a 3rd.... cant imagine though...

I especially like the brown helmets. Instead of cheese heads they could be called turd heads. The accompanying article is below. http://host.madison.com/sports/football/pr...1cc4c03286.html

http://www.nfl.com/news/story?id=09000d5d8...mp;confirm=true Burnett also had the eye of several scouts and coaches since he did not take part in the combine due to a hamstring injury. Burnett blew things out at the station drills, posting a 39 1/2-inch vertical jump, a 4.46 40 and an 11-foot broad jump. He also caught well in ball-skill drills. Burnett (6-1, 210) is a likely second-round pick who is coming off a season in which he didn't build on an All-American sophomore year.

Per Biggs twitter and Chicago Breaking Sports. 5-8, 185 pounds CB? Does that mean DJ Moore will be cut?

According to Brad Biggs on his Twitter account, he is out. Apparently, veteran FB Jason McKie wasn't going to be a fit in the new Martz scheme. The #Bears have released him per @vxmcclure23.

Please add some names and insight. I'm slowly looking into players for this draft.

The more I look at this draft, and working under the assumption at the moment that the Bears don't move Olsen for a 2nd, I feel like the best value pick when the Bears pick might very well be at CB. Guard is a need, but they tend to fall anyway, so unless you fall in love with someone like Jon Asomoah (and he's available there), you might be able to wait a round or two and get Mike Johnson or Brandon Carter or someone like that. The best pure free safeties (Morgan Burnett, Nate Allen) will probably be gone, so I'd rather not reach for Major Wright when you can probably wait and get Robert Johnson or Kendrick Lewis or Darrell Stuckey. But the CB crop is loaded this ye…
