BWRiley585 Posted April 3, 2009 Posted April 3, 2009 I think everyone agrees that the Bears made a pretty bold move. However what threats at WR do the Bears have?
BWRiley585 Posted April 3, 2009 Author Posted April 3, 2009 Olsen and Hester Well Olsen is a decent tight end but Hester has not proven himself as a dominant WR in the Nfl
BWRiley585 Posted April 3, 2009 Author Posted April 3, 2009 And their 1st round pick. I could be missing something but did they not give up their 2009 1st rounder?
Fingon Posted April 3, 2009 Posted April 3, 2009 The bears are relying on Pace to protect Cutler... which is very risky. They have no WR's either.
damj Posted April 3, 2009 Posted April 3, 2009 Who cares, besides Bears fans and fantasy football players?
Magox Posted April 3, 2009 Posted April 3, 2009 And their 1st round pick. 2011 is a long time to wait
DwightSchrute Posted April 3, 2009 Posted April 3, 2009 Hester often had corners beat deep, but Orton could never hit him in stride and would come up short...Cutler should help that a bit. But yes, they still need receiver help.
SUNTANBILLSFAN2 Posted April 3, 2009 Posted April 3, 2009 The bears are relying on Pace to protect Cutler... which is very risky. They have no WR's either. I thought it was a great move to sign Pace on the same day. We tend to forget that Pace was the best LT for years till a rash of injuries cut two seasons short. He played well last year and 5 mil isn't bad if he continues to show great form. Seeing how our LT wants a vault full of money 5 mil a year doesn't sound bad.
BillsFan-4-Ever Posted April 3, 2009 Posted April 3, 2009 I think everyone agrees that the Bears made a pretty bold move. However what threats at WR do the Bears have? Who CARES !!! He's not in the AFC where Buffalo plays him often. And if he did He's NOT that great.
Hyphe23 Posted April 3, 2009 Posted April 3, 2009 The rumor I heard from my friends in Chicago is that they are going to try and go after Holt. Take it for what you will though because I dont keep up with Bears rumors.
Magox Posted April 3, 2009 Posted April 3, 2009 Kenny Britt, in the second round? Maybe. If he's available then I could see them going after him.
BuffOrange Posted April 3, 2009 Posted April 3, 2009 I bet they find somebody for him to throw to before Denver finds somebody to throw to Marshall.
Thurman#1 Posted April 3, 2009 Posted April 3, 2009 Torry Holt? Marvin Harrison? Amani Toomer? There are other possibilities.
Fingon Posted April 3, 2009 Posted April 3, 2009 I bet they find somebody for him to throw to before Denver finds somebody to throw to Marshall. WRs have the same (or higher) bust rate as QBs, and it's not as hard to get the game managing QB McDaniels wants.
BuffOrange Posted April 3, 2009 Posted April 3, 2009 WRs have the same (or higher) bust rate as QBs, and it's not as hard to get the game managing QB McDaniels wants. I don't know if that's true, but I guess it's possible that Moulds/Evans with no QB for so long gives me a tainted picture... Still if you want to talk bust rates DLmen are up there with anybody too. A game manager ain't gonna get it done with that defense.
Mr. WEO Posted April 3, 2009 Posted April 3, 2009 WRs have the same (or higher) bust rate as QBs, and it's not as hard to get the game managing QB McDaniels wants. Two problems with that: first, there is only one QB on the field at a time, not two or three to choose from. Second, the Broncos are so bad defensively, what good will a "game managing QB" be for them? Will a game mangager get them 4 TDs a game? Maybe the Bears WRs numbers are not impressive because their QBs....suck?
