I wanna see them try and make a play for McCourty, but if he gets too expensive/gets resigned then ya, Moore makes a ton of sense.
I said in another post that I'd like to see them fix the secondary in FA leaving them to focus on getting some bodies for the front 7 in the draft.
I like the idea of Moore, Gholson, and Culliver/Cox as all guys who are familiar with the staff.
I think they get a couple FAs, but they aren't going to load up on them. They will build threw the draft, this will take a couple years.

The more i read, the more i am hoping, no praying, we draft danny shelton... mayock has compared him to wilfork and ngata and thinks he's the number 5 overall prospect... weighed in at 343 at senior bowl. All that and he rarely came out even though he was playing in an up tempo pac12... draft him at 7 then find a way to move up to pick the best free safety in the draft gerod holliman... I would love a draft with the first two picks being shelton and holliman!
Those two names wouldn't bother if that came true. I think the most important position in the 3/4 is OLB and if Shane Ray is there I want that to be the pick. If not Shelton would fill the second most important position. I hope some our players sucked because of bad coaching.
-
Results stunk and he was in over his head, but he was probably one of the classier guys on the coaching staff and one of the few of the primary coaches whom the players really stood up for and seemingly played hard for. Wish him the best at Bama and hope he can learn from the disaster that happened in Chicago.
Nobody cares

Im actually hoping we fix the secondary in FA so they can snag Sheltons other teammate Kikaha in the the 2nd. I'd be 100% OK with Shelton/Peters though if we didn't already address CB in FA.
I kind of shared a similar feeling when people brought up Suh, but really, Sutton was drafted late enough that he doesnt need to be locked into a starters spot, and Ratliff only has a year left (if that). Houston-Shelton-Ego with Rat and Sutton as rotational pieces/ depth sounds damn good to me,
You liked our young LBs last year and Veeren, that didnt turn out so well. The point is I hope they do a better judging talent than we do on here.

When did we lose a 4th rounder? We traded this year's 5th with last year's to move up and snag Vereen in the 4th. We have the following picks this year (before compensatory picks):
1st Round - #7
2nd Round - #39
3rd Round - #71
4th Round - #103
5th Round - None
6th Round - #167
7th Round - #199
To me, we have to hit Homeruns with the first 4 picks.
I got the rounds mixed up thought it was a 4th
-
I like Shelton too, my only issue is that we just drafted Sutton and Ferguson, but if he is the best player at #7, then take him.
Pace will draft the BPA and the first 10 are usually set as far as talent . So the names won't be a surprise. Collins is really rated as high as he has shown, he is not a special player. I don't think petty is either even as a 4th round pick.
-
I wonder if we can get a pick for Sutton? I think he still has talent, but doesn't fit what me may want to do.
There going to bring some players in and not get rid of players that have valve under contract. There will just run a hybrid defense and make it work out. I think they draft Ray and perryman and sign Culliver/cb and make it all work
-
I like the of adding these players during FA:
Knighton DT Veteran nose tackle to plug the middle
Green TE with only Bennett signed and healthy we need more depth
Moore S The more bodies at this position the better. I also think Jennings should be a candidate for this position also since he is more of a zone CB.
Then I follow that by drafting these prospects:
1. Shane Ray DE
2. Denzel Perryman ILB
3. Laken Tomlinson OG This is based on Long moving to OT
4. Jamison Crowder WR/KR
5. Brett Hundley QB
6. Louis Trinca-Pasat DT
7. AJ Tarpley ILB
I like the names but we don't have a 4th round pick, so that pick won't work. The first two are spot on
-
Ya I really think Carey needs to get a shot.
Ourlads had him as the 35th overall prospect at one point and made him sound like he's exactly the type of back everyone wants.
http://www.ourlads.com/top-32-college-seni...ft/2014/2356481
If I ever maintain a good connection (Honduras) I will put some thought into this. Carey will get acguud shot at our power rb this year . Last year was so dysfunctional , how could we tell how good he is

Apparently their was at least one significant incident that happened during a practice. Pure speculation but hadn't heard anything of it. I would have thought he was a natural fit in a 3-4. Than again, we have Ego and Sutton so maybe Bears want to go another direction. Sounded like the combination of the "incident" (maybe their were previous ones) along with his age and the injuries made him too unreliable.
He was an all pro at NT in Dallas, all new coaches, why would u assume he's gone?
-
-
Would appear he is headed to the Skins, but some rumors that it might not be done and have seen one report indicating he is thinking twice and might be coming to Chicago. All major reporters seem to be indicating Washington but not done yet (maybe).
Its just media speculating. The problem would be Snyder could just offer him twice the money we would, and that would be a no brainer for him
-
So got another "off the wall" scenario for you. WHAT IF Peyton was to decide to retire? Would he be worth considering as an OC? What about at least a QB coach? We know he's a student of the game. He has a few weeks to decide and is closing in on 40 (which makes him older than our GM by the way).
He has never said he wanted to coach? Probably he should have the interest first, instead of people assuming he would do that.
-
I've been the same way but I'm still here, why can't Brian?
I think it stupendous if Fox were to do this. Brian has a lot of reasons to complain. We didn't know what happened that fateful day when he was finally let go but we know, for the most part, they were wrong in doing it. And as it would seem most everyone else (the public - fans) complained about what was going on in public, he was right.
The fact that Fox is reaching out to the teams past and history is pretty damn respectable. The people of Chicago love their sports and the fact that each branch is nearly a cornerstone in their respective sport, that says a lot. Fox is doing all the right things. Spectacular hire.
You got that right, he was referring to having his name associated with the Bears again instead of the former whinny little ex player that acts like a baby. Urlacher deserves to be part of the traditional past , he is not going to be a coach, just the figurehead of a tough football player the Bears use to have play for them, not so much lately. What his administration will aspire too.
-
Exactly and I believe that is the sticking point right now for OC. If we are going after Cooter who is a drunk QB coach who was horrible in Detroit, it is getting bad. Stafford regressed this year.
He answered it honestly, he will figure out what to do with Cutler, but until he gets an upclose look at the situation, he shouldnt have an answer yet. We got to watch every play,he was busying watching his team.,
-
Got one name for you: LaGarette Blount.
Hell I could even suggest Marshawn Lynch was washed up when he left Buffalo. But then I'd be wrong wouldn't I?
Im not sure Lynch is a good comparision, he had over 1000 yards his first two years in the league, Richardson has 617 in his first 3 years with a robust 3.3 yards a carry average.
Yes
Blount had 1000 yards his first season in the league, with a 4.6 yard average. Being kicked off a team for being a cancer is not the same as being washed up.
-
Quinn cant be named a HC until he is done with the Super Bowl so how are they hiring a OC until the coach is there? That doesnt make sense.

Bell is a good run blocking OT. Just not much for pass protection.
Our offense might be best with long at LT and Bushrod at RT. I don't know if we'd make that jump immediately, but all things are on the table.
Slauson's a pretty damn good guard when health. Garza's ok at center. It's not that hard to find a starting RG and we could switch Mills to that position. I only mention this because our offensive line is still pretty good. We have Matt Forte, two really good WR's, the Black Unicorn, and we could do a lot worse than Jay Cutler. We still have the offensive players that we thought could lead us to glory when last season started.
Our OL was not very good last year, Garza looks bad on tape, not sure why people thinks is ok and a year older. Sign De La Puente, kick Garza out the door. Bingo on Long to LT, Bushrod to RT. All we need to do is find a RG and maybe we can get OLa to play that spot.

Yeah... Meh.
They sure didn't do a big 'promotional to buyer' campaign did they? He's Cum Laude from Harvard (which is spectacular) but played football there for two years (whooppeee) and was on Jaksonville's staff (with Tucker??? - gulp) before working for NO. Where they went " 5-11 last season". Remind me that whomever authored this to never do my resume.
Lucas left in 2004 and Tucker didnt go to Jacksonville until 2009, so the point is not only wrong but pointless anyways.
-
Marion the "Barbian" he was once known as. Sheesh...
Agreed about a 'North / South' runner very similar to Lacy. I'd like to think that Trent Richardson could potentially be that type of player. Perhaps Indy would part with him and he'd be worth trying in that role? I see him similar to Ricky Williams (or even his more recent co-Alum of Alabama Mark Ingrim) in that perhaps he's a late bloomer? Alabama has cranked out some descent RBs these last few years.
Indy would definitely get rid of him, hes is being paid 3.1 million on a guarantee contract. What is a terrible RB worth?
-
I'm not sure Forte has any trade value. He's a 30 year old RB that also had high mileage in college. I'd rather see him finish out with the Bears.
I also would hate to see Marshall go. The WR situation in Chicago was almost as bad as the QB situation for the Bears for years, and he's a top 10 at least WR in the league, and should continue to be for 4 or 5 years. The likely hood of a player drafted from a trade bringing as much value to the team is rather low.
If we get rid of Forte , I doubt if it brings a high draft pick, I suspect maybe a 3rd, not worth the valve of losing him.
With new coaching staff in Place, Briggs wants back
