And so the Bears have announced the acquisition of tight end Richard Angulo and receiver Eric Peterman to one-year contracts. Angulo was out of football in 2009 after a five-year career that included stops in St. Louis, Minnesota, Chicago, and Jacksonville. On two prior occasions, Angulo spent time with new Bears offensive line coach Mike Tice. In 2008, Angulo appeared in 15 games with the only six starts of his career. Peterman spent the 2009 preseason on the Bears' roster, and the final week of the 2009 regular season on the Chicago practice squad. Report
February 23, 201016 yr comment_77948 Apparently Angulo's gone everywhere Tice has been a coach. He's a big guy (6'8" 270 pounds) but I can't imagine that he'll make the final roster. Olsen's the starter, Clark still has a couple of good years left in the tank, and Kellen Davis looks like he's progressing really well. If Davis can keep improving as a blocker and a red-zone threat, there really won't be any room for another TE on the roster. As for Peterman, he was in camp last year, if memory serves. I don't remember him doing anything particularly notable, though. Report

It's the difference between a good blocker and a good blocking TE too. Maybe he could block at FB too. I dunno. I like a guy 6'7" weighing 270. Report
