Nothing would shock me! But for some reason, NE stockpiles old guys...

 

That's because NE is thought of being a SB contender every year, and thus older vets who have failed to reach the SB will take a lesser offer from NE for a greater chance at the ring. They often have already made the big contracts which set them for life, and are now looking for the ring, where as the younger FAs are still seeking the money.

Are you guys forgetting about the original "Bears West" team in San Diego? They have our prized DC over there kicking butt. The word out of San Diego is that Mike Brown will definitely go there. My brother has been clamoring for a safety all year. He called me immediately after hearing they were going to go after him if let go by the Bears.

 

Either case, he'll go to a winning team, make a huge impact, have a chance to play for a ring and make us look stupid for not bringing him back. We'll be stuck with either Manning/Steltz or Manning/Payne which does NOT bring any comfort.

Interesting!
