2014 Chicago Bears Offseason Thread

[Guest]

DB is an easy fix when your line is good (someone said for the 800th time in this thread). gimmie Aaron Donald at 14 and let's go from there.

 

Definitely, though I'm starting to worry he won't be there at 14. There's nice depth at CB to go there second round.

That number fits him, especially in their font. Looks good. Will be cool when he breaks the return record.

Because every time he returns a kick from the end zone he's tackled on the 17?

Who is our backup RB at this point?

[jersey cubs fan]

Ford?

I think it's because he runs in those two patterns.

 

When it's a good return, he takes the ball and goes straight upfield.

 

When it's a bad return, he goes back a few yards and then runs straight sideways.

So cap hit for Allen is $3 million this year and jumps to $12.5 million in 2015.

Geez, I'm greedy because Emery spoiled me here, but that leaves room for Clemons....

Because that's how high he can count to

I sure did love to hate Jared Allen when he was wearing the purple jersey. I probably only hated Clay Matthews more than him when they played the Bears It's amazing how all of a sudden, I kinda like the guy and hope the Bears can get him that Super Bowl trophy he wants so badly.

At present, the Chicago Bears have Jordan Palmer slotted in as their No. 2 quarterback, the current insurance plan behind Jay Cutler.

 

Last year’s backup hero, Josh McCown, is now with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, readying to become a full-time starter again for the first time since 2007.

 

And so Bears coach Marc Trestman and general manager Phil Emery are left to plan and adjust and cross their fingers that they can mold another backup as energetic, steady and productive as McCown was.

 

spoiler alert, Trestman uses a lot of words without really saying anything.

In 2015, Cutler and Allen combined will cost $19m against the cap.

I think you might be $10m off.

Haha, yes...$29m. Math is hard.

[davell]

Shefter thinks the cap hits 140 in 2015 and 150 in 2016. Florio thinks 145 in 2015 and 160 in 2016. At any rate, with it moving upwards, I'm not concerned with Cutler or Allen's cap hit in 2015, especially with Stein restructuring things as great as he does.

yeah, they didn't want his number to be higher than his iq

Bit of a late submission but a huge improvement to Thed's "Hester is dumb" content. 8 and 7 if you were more prompt, but I'm giving you a 6 and 4 since I can only assume you spent all day coming up with it.

You have a lot of potential- you'll get 'em next time- just gotta apply yourself
