What will the Mitch truthers say now? There were definitely bears fans out there that were waiting for him to be a starter somewhere so he could show his struggles were nagys fault

I mean, if you thought that were the case you're still going to think if he gets a shot in Buffalo to step in he will prove it then, or he'll prove it in his next stop. I doubt they are thrown by Mitch taking a backup job.

I highly doubt Trubisky is going to lead the Bills to a SB, but I also don't think it's out of the realm of possibilities that Trubisky will benefit from the organization that took the box of squirrels that was Allen and turned him into a pro bowl QB.

Bears are apparently courting Golladay and I don't know what to make of it.

 

I've seen some speculate they could then pull Arobs tag, which would be the most incompetent series of events Pace ever did.

 

Arob has likely threatened to sit out, Galloway must be insurance

30 year old expensive CBs are replaceable in a salary cap world.

 

They are but this team has too many other holes and too little cap space to easily replace him. And there were more obvious cuts (Graham, Hicks).

I guess we'll see how the market shakes out, but he was still quite productive. Don't think I'd have thrown new money at him, but sucks they couldn't even flip him for a pick.

 

He'll probably go to GB and then haunt Bears QBs.

Exactly. Cutting Fuller, in and of itself, isn't terrible. Cutting Fuller, and paying him 9M in dead cap space, so you can fit Andy Dalton and Germain Ifedi under the cap isn't great......especially when adding Foles and Quinn is a big part of the reason Allen Robinson isn't signed long-term.

The dead space should never be a consideration IMO.
