The SCORE's been making fun of this depth chart all summer, since the Bear's refused to name starters at WR or QB. I had trouble find this but the Sun Times had it: Bears release first depth chart of summer By Brad Biggson August 4, 2008 5:52 PM | Permalink | Comments (6) | TrackBacks (0) Offense WR--Rashied Davis/Devin Hester, Mike Hass, Brandon Rideau, Ryan Grice-Mullen LT--John St. Clair, Cody Balogh, (Chris Williams) LG--Terrence Metcalf, Anthony Oakley, Ryan Poles C--Olin Kreutz, Josh Beekman, Anthony Oakley RG--Roberto Garza, Tyler Reed, Chester Adams RT--John Tait, Kirk Barton TE--Desmond Clark, Greg Olsen, Kellen Davis, Fontel Mines,…

This frees up about $2M in cap space. This puts the Bears close to $30M under the cap (based upon Biggs analysis).

Per ESPN radio1000. Benson released.

The end of an era. https://twitter.com/AdamSchefter/status/839906660936200196 Alaska cracks the champagne and lights a cigar.

The Bears released Moose per NFL.com. While I did not think he had a great year, who are we going to get to replace him? here does that leave us draft wise?

Bears remain 'Plex-ible' at WR By Vaughn McClure | Tribune reporter May 18, 2009 Bears fan Tony Tudisco from Aurora put himself on the hot seat Sunday when he inquired how Jay Cutler would thrive "without any receivers to throw to." Bears general manager Jerry Angelo fired back. "Sounds like you're from Wisconsin," Angelo said sarcastically. The receiver question was sure to surface as spirited diehards gathered for the annual Bears Expo. But before the festivities began, Angelo discussed a possibility he previously had dismissed: Plaxico Burress. "As I said, we'll look at every option," Angelo said. "[His] situation is different because…

Thought this was interesting - one because he is a really good candidate, but 2 the timing. Seemed quick given they are likely to focus on a GM first. The only reason you would want to fast track some of the coaches might be because there are a few you think you might move on before you hire a GM (i.e., Harbaugh).

from chicagobears.com Well, best of luck to Brendon in the future.

Completely fine with this move and would be comfortable with him starting, though I assume they give him some competition in the draft. He made some mistakes early in the year, but seemed better when he got reps near the end of the year.

1 year deal. Presumably less than what we would have had to tender him (which I believe was 1.7M).

Brad Biggs ‏@BradBiggs 14s14 seconds ago #Bears announce RB Jacquizz Rodgers and OL Nick Becton have been re-signed to 1yr contracts. Rodgers was core ST player pre injury.

Per espn radio 1000.

Per the Sun Times. http://www.suntimes.com/sports/football/be...s030208.article Peace

A backup but we need the depth somewhere. Hope that lock down Hicks, would make for a good offseason.
