April 27, 200817 yr comment_37341 Bears | N. Hill agrees to terms Sun, 27 Apr 2008 16:47:12 -0700 Brad Biggs, of the Chicago Sun-Times, reports the Chicago Bears have agreed to terms with undrafted free-agent QB Nick Hill (Southern Illinois). Terms of the contract were not disclosed. I kind of figured they had something worked out with him if he didn't get drafted. He was a draftable player though. Report

Terms of the contract were not disclosed. I kind of figured they had something worked out with him if he didn't get drafted. He was a draftable player though. I'd be shocked as hell if we didn't sign some free agent journeyman to be our #3. It's still flabbergasting that we made a conscious decision not to draft a QB. It wasn't just that we didn't like any of the guys who were available, but we wanted to make a statement in not drafting anyone. Report
April 28, 200817 yr comment_37397 A lefty that evidently can throw the ball pretty far from what I've read. Report
April 28, 200817 yr comment_37426 Anybody seen this guy play? There must be a Saluki among posters. Maybe some of the Flacco supporters watched Hill against Delaware in the playoffs? Suntimes says he was a former basketball player at Western Kentucky so I figure he's a pretty good athlete mobility wise. Report
April 28, 200817 yr comment_37441 i went to SIU... Nick was a good qb, he has quick feet, can move around the pocket, can scramble to get youa couple more yards. i would say he doesn't make the best choices when throwing the ball, but if you coach him im sure he'll get better. Good smart kid, who is athletic. And for SIU being more of a "Party" school, i never saw nick out, except maybe once Report

April 28, 200817 yr comment_37479 Someone mentioned that Tampa now has like 6 QB's. More than likely they will cut 1 or 2. That would be an easy pickup for a team looking for a 3rd String QB. Report
