  1. a middle lineup of Tommie boy, Urlacher, and Landry would be friggen awesome.
  2. WITHA #6 PICK COULD WE TRADE DOWN AND GET WILLIS (LB) AND ANOTHER STUD SS?
  3. No Perez. Whoopdy-do. :wink: Perez's 2007 projection: .240 .273 .360 I question Lou's intelligence in having him around for so much of ST. Neifi wasnt with the team this spring, was he???? The mighty TOMAS was. oooooooo...tomas peRRRez.... got it.

  5. Are you Dusty in disguise? I do know quite abit about bass fishing.... :shock:
  6. yeah Gophers. now, wheres my Gopher teeth???
  7. For real....Grace really [expletive] himself on the field? LOL. lol I wanna hear more I miss Grace. He was my fav back int he day..even more then sandberg (who was a very close #2)
  8. UGH. WHO THINKS THE bEARS WILL LET HIM GO IF HE GOES TO JAIL? I HOPE NOT. I THINK THIS WHOLE EXPERIENCE HAS TAUGHT HIM A LESSON, AT LEAST I HOPE SO, AND TANK IS A GOOD DT.
  9. Hutchinson? Walter Jones. oo..I dont remember hearing about that. Does anyone think we might have an inhouse replacement for Briggs? like Jamar Williams? edit Jamar's name
  10. Moving up the equivalent number of spots that the Bears moved would essentially cost a late 2nd or early 3rd round pick. The Bears basically traded Benson for a late 2nd or early 3rd, and then traded that pick and their 2nd to move up. I don't think he got hosed. 2nd round draft picks are extremely valuable trade chips. I guess this is where I would make a lousy NFL GM, I woulda helpd out and made the Jets pay more, if not, make Jones play angry. Whattya think we can get for Briggs now that he is pissed off? I don't know, but if it's just exchanging a pick? I'd let Briggs sit. All year if necessary. Hell, I'd franchise him over & over and let him sit forever if all I'm going to get for him is an exchange of 15 draft positions. can you actually do that? franchise a player year after year? not a bad option here. I am abit pissed w/Briggs. The offer the Bears gave him last year was a fair offer I think. Maybe the Bears new 2nd rd pick will be one to replace Briggs...
  11. To an extent, yes. If they waste the draft pick then it's a wasted trade. But the fact is Jones had no future with the Bears. They weren't going to give him a $12m signing bonus with a 5 year deal, and then risk him being a cap hindrance in 2-3 years. Jones wasn't going to play out his contract without being a huge problem. So the Bears essentially had to trade him, and they got a decent value for him. People tend to lump draft picks together as just some sort of crapshoot. But they aren't. NFL draft picks have real value. This was a fair deal on both ends. while I think it is true Jones had no future witht he Bears, I still think he was worth more then just a higher 2nd rd draft pick. With this pick (NY 2nd rd) who do you think we are looking for?

  13. i DONT SEE WHY WE NEED TO GIVE UP OR 2ND ROUND PICK. jONES STRAIGHT UP FOR THE JETS 2ND RND PICK WOULDA BEEN FINE, BUT I FEEL LIKE ANGELO GOT HOSED. GOOD LUCK IN NY JONESY. BRING ON BENSON!!
  14. There is no one that rivals the man-crush I have for Kerry Wood. shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii..move over son, you gotta lotta learn'n and yearn'n to do before you reach my level....
  15. wita Kap-i-tal K good to see the old woody. Lets hope he stays that way.
  16. I pull my hair out when I think of why we haven't tried this yet. Granted, he was a rook, and maybe he doesn't have WR hands (pure conjecture on my part), but a guy with that speed HAS to get a few looks on offense, right?
  17. I have to say that part of an offesive coordinators job is understanding how his players will respond to the opponents defense. Turner did a horrible job at theis in the Super Bowl. having said that, I think Turner can be critisized for his handling of grossman, and his inability to keep Grossman calm when the poop hit the fan. I also think Turner did an exceptional job understanding what he had in his WR's for the majority of the season. I look forward to how he will change in his approach with Grossman (and thus how Grossman will respond) more then anything. I think that is the key for the Bears next year.
  18. last I checked, we dont run the West Coast.... Is Turners O a derivative of the west coast? I didnt think it was If the Bears ADAPT to that he wouldn't be a bad pickup. oic...I was confused by that remark......
