Beautiful

He was going to do something like a day in prison at one point. So my guess is he won't get much time.

Beautiful. I'm super excited for football season to begin. In fact, I just signed up for NFL Sunday ticket for the first time. Going to turn my house into a bar on Sundays as opposed to me going to the bar.

Over one season, I have to go with Marcus Robinsion. Than I'd have Curtis Conway, Marty Booker, and Jeff Graham.

You guys are knocking Roach but it seems like the Bears like him more than Hilly.

He'd instantly be the best WR on the team.

Haha, part of it is probably because he's got a super fresh arm and some extra adrenaline.

Completely agree, but I also think the Bears want to make sure they have tons of bodies that can play in the secondary so they don't get lit up. It just makes sense cause corners or at least the Bears CB's have tended to get hurt so you need the protection and with more and more teams running more spread type of offenses having the extra corners helps. At the same time, I think the best way to improve our secondary is to actually have a pass rush and I certainly hope we see a better and more consistent one from the Bears this season and beyond.

I think it is going to take some getting used to. His arm is a huge freakin difference from Ortons. I read one person who said that Hester was going to have a heck of a lot of trouble catching the ball with Cutler at the helm because he has poor catching fundementals. The bright side is he's going to hit guys in stride most of the time. So if our WR's can't catch, its there fault and the Bears will have to find new ones. I do know that a lot of players when they first went to GB had trouble catching the ball in there first minicamps and stuff as they adjusted to the velocity on Favre's passes. I expect our guys to get it together.

Interesting, makes sense with McBride moving to safety. Gives the Bears a bit more depth while they see if Vasher is healthy and if Moore is ready to make an immediate impact.

Wow, thats awful. I never expected him to fall that far and I still think a team gives him a call.

Interesting, hopefully Vasher returns to form and Moore looks like the player a lot of people think he might be (and he seems like a great fit in the cover 2, where size isn't that important in the secondary) as Manning/Mcbride are nice Nickel and Dimebacks. And Graham, well he could be a bluechipper at FS.

This seems like an excellent fit and he'd be a welcome addition to our starting defense. Hopefully we can get him inked.

Oh and I'm fairly certain if there was a line, my % would go down cause I'm certain I'd get blocked a lot.

I've hit a 45 yarder (a little wind to help me...sucker hit the crossbar dead in the center and bounced over). My real limit is in between the 35-40 as I'm probably about 50% from there. Of course that isn't that great, but thats with only soccer experience.

Awesome recap Pix and it sounds like you guys had a blast!!!!

Good approach Jerry. Last season people seemed to get complacent and while I like both Idonjie and Ogunleye, Oguneley specifically hasn't played all that well over the past 2 seasons so he needs to show up motivated and kick some butt.

We heard a lot about Stelz when they drafted him and how much the Bears loved him. Than he kind of fell out of favor most of last year and was pretty meh in general. He definately lacked speed on the field as he was always a step or two slow in coverage. I wonder if he's improved this year or if the Bears are just talking out there butts knowing that they have mediocre safeties and nothing more. But in coverage our safeties, until they prove otherwise, are below average.

I loved this guy coming out of State as well. I kept hoping he'd be a Bear. And I still would love him on the Bears. He'd instantly make our WR corps better by giving us a legitimate #1 which than pushes everyone else down the charts and takes pressure off of our developing guys. Hester gets more time, Bennett and Iglesias get some time and in general we just get a ton more depth. Plus Plaxico possesses a skill-set that none of our WR's have and could be ridiculously huge for us in the Red Zone along with Olsen.

He was good in college, but never put things together in the pro's and while I'd like to give him a shot, we already have enough raw WR's in here right now, imo.

I hope your right about Hester.

I still don't get how they were able to get the appeal last season.

They are a much much improved team. I wouldn't be shocked if they win 7 to 9 games this year.

Entertaining article, I like it.
