August 30, 201312 yr comment_124314 Jordan palmer announced via Twitter he's been released. Kinda surprised on this. Just a guess here but I'm thinking both palmer and Edwards will be released and we will sign a 3rd qb to the PS. Maybe Rodgers Report
August 30, 201312 yr Author comment_124315 Good bye jwebb. He progressed so much he went from starting LT 2 yrs in a row to cut the very nxt yr. He announced this via Twitter. Report
August 30, 201312 yr comment_124321 Impressed with this coaching staff. Not simply because they cut Webb but their decisiveness in rebuilding the entire Oline throughout camp and preseason. Of course the cap stone is cutting Webb first thing this morning. I'll say it and few will believe it but Webb will find work this year in the league. Somebody will need a backup swing OT and he's too intriguing with his athletic ability and coaches always think a fresh start in their system will help a player. Not totally surprised they cut Palmer as I said in another post...he's still available if we need him, or Edwards, and later in the year Blanchard will be too. If he's needed, the 3rd string QB is the end of your season so might as well keep a roster spot for a developmental player who has the ability to be a true starter in the league. If that isn't your 3rd QB might as well keep a player like DE Washington. Report

But but but the stats say he progressed!!! Webb gave up one less penalty than Bushrod last year! I can't believe they would cut him!!!!! Hahahahahaha Report

The kid just couldn't realize the opportunities he had. His biggest problem with success was the mental aspect. Report

August 30, 201312 yr comment_124328 I don't get the Palmer cut. I don't agree with only having 2 QB's on the active roster. I think that's insane, just as I did last year. Report

Especially with a new system, new oline. You never know. Why not be prepared at the most important position on the field. Report
August 30, 201312 yr comment_124330 Hardin has now been released I was rooting for Hardin. Got a raw deal with missing his senior year because of injury. Report
August 30, 201312 yr comment_124331 I also don't agree with the Bears keeping possibly 4 TE's and a FB. With TE's as bad as they have, why clutter the roster with a bunch of scrubs? Report

One o those two will be available if, God forbid, we need a 3rd QB. Then, if it happens, we're pretty much screwed either way. Report
August 30, 201312 yr comment_124339 I was rooting for Hardin. Got a raw deal with missing his senior year because of injury. Just saw on ESPN that Hardin was technically waived/injured since he apparently fractured his scapula in the Brown game. If he passes through the waiver wire then he will end up on the Bears IR. The guy is made of glass. Report

August 30, 201312 yr comment_124345 Not my cousin!!! nooooo!!! LOL! Good to see you having a sense of humor about it. Frankly, even though I never agreed with you on Webb, I applauded your tenacity. It ain't easy having everyone come down on you about something and stick to your guns. Report

August 30, 201312 yr comment_124354 Hurst, Fendi, Ahston, and Armando Allen should make the practice squad if they clear waivers. Wouldn't mind seeing Lenz added to that list as well. Could use a burner for our DBs to matchup against in practice. Report
August 30, 201312 yr comment_124356 We were trying to trade Earl Bennett but we can't cut him until he is fully healthy or we give him an injury settlement. The Bears clearly have young players they like and want to protect in Wilson and perhaps Washington. It's possible when Earl is healthy that we'll cut him and re-sign Jordan Palmer. I still lean toward the idea of us keeping just two QBs. Report
August 30, 201312 yr comment_124357 Anyone know where our roster is at? How many more cuts need to be done? Report
