Mannings a free agent, he won't be cut :)

And why wouldn't you want Manning back?

 

 

Only at a discount. He is a backup safety/kick returner at best. Given if we didn't have Hester he might be the primary kick returner, but we do.

Absolutely agree. He hasn't developed the way he should have.

There are reports that he'll attract attention as a kick returner so if we wanted him back it might cost us more than the vet minimum.

Then Siyanara

I think not worth it...

Daniel Manning has to be one of the most under appreciated Bears on this team. He played solid at safety this year, the first time he has been able to stay in one place for any length of time, he is very athletic, and a good returner. Keep him all of the way IMO.

 

Manuwhatever has not seemed to do much....

 

Taylor has not done much.

 

To pick a CB in the first round is a poor choice IMO, have to go OL or WR. I would not bother with CB until much later, we are solid there IMO with good backups besides. Corey Graham deserves a chance if the others can't get it done.

 

 

I would sign Sidney Rice and Mankins if we can afford it.

 

I would get Manu and Taylor outta here.

 

My draft picks:

 

Round 1: Gabe Carini, LT, Wisconsin

Carini is a big balanced LT and will relieve us of the Williams experiment. He is 6'8 320lbs.

 

Round 2: Armon Binns, WR, Cinncinnati

Bins is a playmaker with good hands and a big WR at 6'4 200. He will bulk up as well.

 

Round 3: Sam Acho, DE, Texas

The Bears need more pressure on the QB and Acho brings that. 6'3 260. He had 8 sacks last year and 5 so far in '10.

 

Round 4: Rashad Carmichael, CB, Virginia Tech

Bears need help on the corners. Carmichael has hands and speed. Has 10 picks in the last two years. 4.38 40-time.

 

Round 5: Chris Stewart, OG, Notre Dame

Big Guard to take over. 6'5 351...Hate to have to cook for him.

 

Round 6: Quentin Davie, OLB, Northwestern

All around linebacker. 15 Sacks, 5 forced fumbles, 5 picks. Plus he doesn't have to move his stuff too far from Evanston.

 

Round 7: Jake Kirkpatrick, C, TCU

I agree with Kruetz' age making this pick a necessity. 6'3 305...and if you've seen any TCU games, he can protect the QB.

Worth noting about your timeline...the "March" part only happens once a CBA is agreed to.

There are reports that he'll attract attention as a kick returner so if we wanted him back it might cost us more than the vet minimum.

 

Thing is the Bears DO want him back it's just a matter of if we want to pay what it takes.

 

Sure I heard on the radio that he was offered a deal the same time as Mannelly & Toeina
