Where the problem came in is he had money on the table, if he was cut the money would just be dead money. Now were off the hook and get something out of it. As someone said on here before, drafting pre injured players has its draw backs. We just have to look forward and hope they get it all figured out. At least they have the balls to get rid of 1st round picks it they dont think there any good, instead of keeping him a few more years and just be done with him.

Actually, I did know that.

This is always a bad time of the year to stay interested in football for me, draft gone, free agency almost gone, training camp hasnt started yet. Since I play a lot of fantasy football and I know people on this board better, I am not sure who everybody is in the FF money league here is. I know Adam and bowling, but who else is in that league? I am Devildogs, so who else is what teams?

I think it is just trying to fill a rotation role at DT and sometimes a fresh start puts players in a better position to play better. We still need a DT so we will see what he might have.

He is listed on the roster and depth chart as a WR, we know he isnt any good at it but you have to be listed as something. There are several players that play only STs that are listed at some position, it is splitting hairs. Your both right.

Your right , he picks the questions to answer and sure does do a lot of stupid ones.

NOW you can say a wasted pick. A 4th rounder should be more part of our plans than playing FB, when last year our weakness was at TE.

A few years ago they took on some investors to keep afloat and the investors pulled the plug.

I thought they did a good job, didnt always agree with them, but worth checking out,especially around draft time.

Actually there first round pick, they had rated as a 2nd rounder. So much for someone thinking there smart.

Actually, I was being serious, I just dont think LM is that sharp, you could do a better job.BUT I doubt if you would a big off enough of a suckass for the Bears to hire you.

Thats because you are smarter than he is and it offends him.

What a putz Urlacher is, he comes out and states he would have played for Dallas this year. They werent interested in him, he just says dumb things sometimes. That is why it was always hard to endear yourself to him, great on the field but a putz with the fans and media.

Every year is different and usually new coaches dont do well there first year, but if the OLine is fixed and Cutler and Trestman click we could be in for a successful year. I would say 9-7 to 11-5 is a realistic projection. I will be more specific after training camp. I am a glass half full kind of a guy and look forward to this year.

I will always take a football player over an athlete, the trick is to get both in the same package.

Him being a HOFer on the first ballot is no slam dunk. I do think he make it the second time.

They roll the dice on some players and maybe one will pop out and mean something.

He retired the day he didnt accept the Bears offer,it is just official now.

The Bears signed Maurice Jones a CB, kind find much about him, but is a rookie, UDFA player. They did this after Dropping Andre Fluellen/DT back to the old drawing board with the DT position.

I would say it is a big factor in the evaluation, what are they going to go by his press clippings, oh he doesnt have any.

Hopefully this all turns out ok, it would be nice if he come in to camp looking like the player we drafted,but for some reason, I find that hard to believe this all turns around this quickly after a 2 year slide.

I am not talking about receiving percentage, 192 targets for Marshall, 181 to everyone else. They all were inconsistent last year. He threw to Marshall because he trusted him more, he would go up and fight for balls.

The problem was he didnt have anybody else he could trust. Bennett,Hester,Davis, they all sucked last year.

I thought they needed another QB prospect to groom but it appears they like Blanchard a lot so that derailed the pickup. I think they need another DT and that still could happen. With training camp approaching there will still be some cuts. I think the possibility exists Idonije still comes our way. I think most of the roster is set with a few fringe players to be added and subtracted. I think the possibility still exists that Hester and Weems could be gone. They only do one thing and with a tight budget, ,may not be enough. I think our WRs are on the roster, with the first 3 set and the 4th and 5th will be filled by our prospects. Who will be cut? Obviously Carimi is the first name to pop up. E. Williams roster spot will also be in jeopardy Hester and Weems are up in the air.IMO

He is someone else's first round pick,they watched tape and he was terrible. So the new coaching staff put him at the bottom of the depth list. He has to prove himself, and seems he copped an attitude. You need to be there to change peoples minds and he is not.
