Ed Hochuli 3:16 Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 Hester is a FA. No need to cut him. Davis will hopefully be cut. Peace Hester is not a UFA after the year. However he is only owed a bit over a million so he'll probably be cut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Hochuli 3:16 Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 Even better. They should have traded him years ago as far as I'm concerned. I hope the Bears look at TE in free agency. I'll put up with Finley's drops (he's a good enough athlete that he'll be enough of a threat to really help the Bears open the field up more). That way the Bears can focus on drafting to get the D younger and of course building up the oline. I think they need to spend money on 1 olinemen in FA (a starter..obviously) plus a TE in FA. Then draft a tackle early (e.g., 1st round) plus find a new MLB early in the draft. Sign one of the 6 OT's, Dustin Keller, draft Ogletree in round 1, draft Larry Warford or Alvin Bailey in round 2.

Daventry Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 You call yourself a fan with this sort of talk? Sad. Good to know there is someone here who I can go to for the definition of being a Bears fan....I am thinking for the long term for the team, not stumbling into the playoffs with no hope of going anywhere etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daventry Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 Everyone on this board is a fan and are just expressing their opinions. Lovie has taken this team as far he can, in my opinion, and I would like a change in staff. My fear is, as with several of the fans on this board, ownership and upper management would see a 10 win season as a success and keep Lovie. I am tired of mediocrity. I want a team that challenges for the Superbowl every year. Lovie Smith team's clearly do not do that. Peace Exactly, thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason Posted December 25, 2012 Report Share Posted December 25, 2012 If you would try to rise above patronizing you would realize that I don't want the team to fail. At any cost. If you would actually read some of the other posts you'll see some here that would hope for a loss not only for Lovie and crew to be gone but get a better draft pick. I DO consider myself a fan, through thick or thin. I want the team to win now, next week and if they continue...then too. I don't give two craps about what happens after that right now. I guess the difference is that I value long-term success over a one year flash in the plan where they get bumped out of the playoffs with almost no chance of actually going the whole way. If two steps back get the Bears ten forward, then I am willing to begrudgingly accept the losses if it means many more wins and much more success. Plain and simple, Lovie Smith has to go, and two wins would probably give him enough bargaining ammo for an extension. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
