Driver, Woodson and Jennings

[QBME]

Where are you seeing the Bears have 24 million? I've only seen them having ~11M or so, and they are going to have to open the checkbook for Melton. I'm not sure they have the cap room for Jennings.

This mornings Chicago Trib has the Bears at $11 million. Besides, they need a Tight End way more than a WR.

Sportstalk had an interesting point about da Barelys this AM.

- Trestman worked with Tebow prior to the draft to tune up TT's delivery, motion, etc.

- Montreal (Trestman's CFL team) had Tebow's rights while Trestman was there.

- Da Bares have a wieny with a good arm who can't lead at QB. Why not get a great leader with a noodle arm at QB so they will still suck?

Under the 2012 season. I hate being an idiot!

Vikings 16 mil
Bears 13 mil.

I still think either could easily afford him.

I think Trestman also worked with Cutler before his draft.

Just after Trestman was signed, I saw an article that reprinted Trestman's comments about Tebow before his draft. He acknowledged his shortcomings, but emphasized his leadership and said he could be very effective in the NFL, but only in a system that used him correctly. Seemed to acknowledge that he wasn't suitable for everybody.

If Trestman can perform surgery, they can Frankenstein those two and be in good shape.

Double J just spent a shit-ton of $ on a new whip to take to the Combine:

Can't blame Jerry. The Cowboys really needed a nice luxury vehicle to relax and watch playoff games in after yet another December swoon.

Teutbloer

TEBO- from Tebow

-UTLER from Cutler

Pronounced TOOT BLOWER

or lose the -ut- and just be Tebloer

TEA BLOWER

Whether he's farting or suckling sacks, he's a great candidate for All-Bears team.

I say it's "Te-tler", pronounced "Teetler."

From ESPN as of Yesterday
Cap Space:

Chicago Bears: $8.176 million under the cap
Detroit Lions: $554,000 over the cap*
Green Bay Packers: $17.645 million under the cap
Minnesota Vikings: $12.820 million under the cap

[Fritz]

Wow. So which organization would you rather be a fan of....?

The Packers won the division yet have the most cap space. Impressive.

Although that will change if and when they tie up Matthews and Rodgers this offseason.

[pbmax]

Yeah but with that kinda space and contracts coming up, you can just feel them trading down.

Packer Report @PackerReport
For what it's worth, I've had some water thrown on Jennings' supposed demand for $14M a year.

I read this as: he is not actually asking for $14 million per, instead of never going to get it, but in the end there isn't much difference.

[Joemailman]

It's just chatter, but there is some talk that the Packers are still considering franchising Jennings. https://twitter.com/RapSheet/status/305764885881569281
