Da Bears goin nutty in FA

[sheepshead]

So will the Vikings sign Adrian Peterson, so they have both of 'em?

[ThunderDan]

Chet Taylor to the Bears

4 years 12.5, 7 guaranteed per PFT

Wonder if Bears are kicking themselves for letting Thomas Jones go for Benson. And then letting Benson go to CIN.

The Bears got 1,773 yards and 10 TD out of Benson as the 4th pick in the draft.

Schefter now reports Peppers and Bears have agreed on terms

[sheepshead]

Theyre going ape shit on sports radio down here. am 1000 and 670 you can get them in the midwest or online

always funny, theyre making a place in the trophy case at Halas Hall

Bears fans (like my uncle) are so excited right now... this is a guy who still plays cards with Ditka so not a complete idiot, just completely blinded by his love for the team. He told me today to expect the division title from them! lol

What a joke, all these moves reek of ultimate desperation. Can't wait to see the long term effects of their more recent (and future) moves.

Are they just as excited as they were for Cutler?

[steve823]

Well it's official now.

So much for my powers of deduction. So Alex Brown slides over to the left side? I think you have to keep Peppers on the right.

I wonder which four games he will show up for this year? Two of them have to be the Vikings, don't they Bryant McKinnie?

Who knows. All I know is I feel bad for whoever out LT is going to be, they have to face Allen twice and Peppers twice.

let the bears super bowl talk begin

[steve823]

This is actually good for us. Besides the obvious bad part of having to face Peppers twice a year, this is really going to mess up their whole salary cap. I don't know too much about the topic, but paying a player roughly $40 million in 3 years isn't a good move.

there is no cap, and it might not come back

i', not too worried about peppers, the FIBS have a lot more problems on that defense

they just threw a lot of money at one guy when they need to be finding a lot of other younger guys to throw money at

[steve823]

Well supposedly there's a big chance of it coming back, which is why a lot of teams aren't going all out spending.

[Tony Oday]

It WILL be back and the Bears will have an even OLDER defense that is suseptible to injuries and ineptness at the end of a season...they still have no offense to speak of...

Ya, the talk here in IL was that Brown would switch positions. Peppers has played both positions in the past though I believe.

[steve823]

Well when it all said and done we all have to remember..The Bears still suck
