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.

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.
-
I'd take DT once the Bears inevitably get rid of Brandon Marshall, but unfortunately they are in no position to get into a bidding war for any high priced free agent's services.
The Bears would be best served taking the approach of the Packers and other great teams that value keeping their own younger guys as opposed to being players in the free agent market every year like the Bears have been. And it's all because of bad drafting.
I agree but they can add some mid priced FAs and improve the team without big contracts. Most people think we can add a few expensive FAs and live in the rose garden, but that is what we have lived with for so long. We added people like Young, Slauson, Ratliff without paying large contracts.
Eddie Royal/WR---- he has speed we could use to give us a down field threat
Virgil Green/TE------has upside and a connect to Fox
Carpenter/OG-------Seahawks have some big money to dish out this offseason and wont be able to this starter. (my thought-move Long to LT, Bushrod to RT, bring Carpenter to RG spot
De La Puente/OC----we need to resign him and get rid of Garza, wont cost alot
Moore/FS-------------is an above average S with connections to Fox
Culliver/CB-----------if Fangio comes our way, maybe we can get Culliver here, better than Jennings and younger

All I can say is... it's about time.

Fifteen extra minutes in the cold tub Monday morning. Maybe 20. Slowly get in and let that ice water crawl up to your neck. Just try to find some relief for a beaten-down, worn-out body.
The day before? Man, downhill collisions in the hole that felt like a train wreck.
That was my experience in the NFL the morning after playing John Fox's Panthers teams. I'm talking about old school stuff when you lined up versus those squads. Put on your big boy pads and get ready to hit. You were in for a fight.
I dont know if it all is going to work out but sure does look good from this chair.

2015 Denver Broncos Free Agents
Wes Welker
Demaryius Thomas
Terrance Knighton
Jacob Tamme
Will Montgomery
Mitch Unrein
Rahim Moore
Orlando Franklin
Nate Irving
Quinton Carter
Julius Thomas
Virgil Green
Steven Johnson
Aaron Brewer
Tony Carter
Brandon Marshall
Ben Garland
We could use a backup TE and all of there TEs are free agents--Virgil Green
Brandon Marshall is a no brainer- a stud better than any LB on our roster
Rahin Moore he wont command a big salary and is a competent FS
We will not be making several big spending free agent signing, so those 3 would add some nice additions to our team with not great expense.
-
Man I'm really off my game. I attribute it to working from a tablet and not my typical desktop. Can't really do as much digging as I typically do.
I think Ego and Ratliff can play the NT position, but we are staving for 5T ends. Houston, I think could but not sure Sutton has a spot. Allen definitely not. If they switch, and I doubt that, we need two more 5T ends that you didnt address.
-
Can't let him leave the building! Lock the door and throw some big bags of cash on the table. You know Dan Synder is going to if you don't. Fangio, like Fox, is the obvious hire here for DC as he is the most qualified based on his recent levels of success.
Even if they don't hire Fangio, the Bears should be able to bring in a representable DC this year based on the names I've heard being thrown around. I just hope they can get something done with this guy.
Hard to say how it all turns out but like the names that is getting throwed around for coordinator jobs.
-
I think he was meaning asst coaches he has hired that turned into HC while under Fox's regime.
Im hoping one of the strong suits with going with Fox was that he would be able to recruit a great staff.
I have an off the wall sense of humor so I reflect that in my use of words. Sometimes I succeed and sometimes I dont.
-
SIGN THIS MAN NOW! If we got Kyle Shanahan and Fangio, Fox may have assembled one of the best staffs in the business. Fangio's defenses have been in the top 5 every year he's been the DC.
I think one of his (Fox) strengths is getting good ass. coaches. The list is endless on future HCs he has hired in the past. I hope he gets who he wants. He is a better judge of that than me.
Fantastic Mock
in Bearstalk
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.
