Why? http://www.foxsports.com/nfl/story/former-...he-bears-032117 And a funny fan reaction to his visit. https://mobile.twitter.com/NOTSportsCenter/...%7Ctwgr%5Etweet

Are you making a crossed Ron Howard reference?

Former RB for the Rams. So I guess that takes drafting an RB off the table? Not a bad choice. He's more a scat back. Reminds me of Sproles. Definitely different than both Langford and Howard. http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2017/03/21/bea...to-1-year-deal/

I agree with getting a big decent HEALTHY WR somewhere early. I have my fingers crossed that White will work out but still would like to see another big body like AJ come in. Beyond that my picks for draft would be (in no particular order) DeShon Watson, Reuben Foster and Jamal Adams. If all thee; spectacular if one or two...just as good.

Or do they? Since being with the Bears, Trevathan has been injured three times (that we know of). Two knee injuries (slight one in TC last year and the season ender in November) and a severe thumb injury in October. Apparently he's had quite the injury history while in Denver. And remember, Pace loves him some BPA. Who among us picked Floyd last year with McPhee, Young and Houston already on the roster? Speaking of the season ender knee issue; then there's this (below). http://www.espn.com/blog/chicago-bears/pos...table-to-return

I'd be curious to see in the last two years of the players that visited pre-draft were actually drafted. Or at the very least what the trend of players there were. Like last year, did they have a lot of OLBs visit (drafting Floyd) and the year before that WRs when they drafted White? Or was it all a bunch of smoke and mirrors?

Guess that leaves us to pick Watson then?

The more I read on Adams the more I think he'd also be a great addition to the team. Decent cover skills, solid hitter and tackler and great field general. Similar to Brown without the injury history? http://www.nfl.com/draft/2017/profiles/jam...dams?id=2557979

Rest easy "Kansas Comet" and family. All our best to you while you battle this out.

Not that it means a hill of beans but I'd be extremely very much good with this guy joining the team!!!

Was looking for highlight film on this guy and couldn't find anything except from his college days. I did find some highlights of the defense he was a part of in 2011-13(?) of which Fangio coached and DAMN! Those guys were vicious. Seeing their LB corps makes me want us to draft Reuben Foster all that much more. (To be fair their DBs were pretty bad hombres too).

Another positive about Glennon coming to Chicago. It got Rodgers a little pissy. http://sportsmockery.com/2017/03/the-bears...-aaron-rodgers/

Yeah, I'm a no too. And agree with drafting again if the 'powers that be' see it necessary.

Man the comment section to your link is none too kind of Jenkins. Hope he was cheap.

Jenkins? Who the heck is that?

This Hankins guy intrigues me. Just read he's 25 and has a 7 sack season under his belt. Why has he not already been snatched up?

Not that I'm endorsing it but it appears the Seahawks are looking to trade Sherman. Some concerns are he'll be costly ($11 million for the next two years(?)), may require a 1st or 2nd round to consider, last years knee injury and I'm not sure he's what we need in the locker room. I would personally prefer him go play in ATL and join back up with Dan Quinn. Then we could see them put the pouty face on Pete Carroll, especially if they were to meet in the playoffs. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/early-l...m=.dfb01515527d

Haha!! If I thought you were serious I'd still have to laugh. Obviously there's a lot more career data to draw from Cutler than there are Ossy and Glennon. I'd be curious to see where Cutlers stats measured up at the same time where Glennon is now. (I'm too lazy to do that). But I see NYC did a pretty good job of extrapolating the stats to draw out the comparisons of Glennon and Cutler overall. (Nicely done). From that it looks like Glennon is more the 'game manager' that we need (and had with Orton). And that Glennon is only a bridge QB player for the next Franchise QB; whomever that may be.

Just because I'm curious I did some 'comparative shopping'. First thing I noticed is that overall Sage made the same observations most of us did, especially with regards to the contract. And to think, this guy gets paid to do this. Haha. Next thing I did was a quick look at Glennon, Osweiler and Cutler (because I'm a glutton) stats. Particularly TD%, completion % and TD/INT ratio. Osweiler: 59.9% completion rate of 5,038 career yards with 26 TDs to 22 INTs for a TD% of 3.2 Glennon: 59.4% completion rate of 4,011 career yards with 30 TDs to 15 INTs for a TD% of 3.2 Cutler: 61.9% completion rate of 32,467 career yards with 208 TDs to 146 INTs for TD% of 4.6 Something else that is eerily similar to Glennon and Osweiler besides some of the stats up above are they both 6'7" with some slight weight disparity. Glennon being the bean pole at 227# and Ossy coming in at 240#. Anyhow, after it's all said and done yes the Bears did better contractually. Question now is did they do better in talent evaluation? Ossy: http://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/O/OsweBr00.htm Glennon: http://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/G/GlenMi00.htm Cutler: http://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/C/CutlJa00.htm

Using the 'risk/reward' montra, don't you think our team (let alone Pace) should focus more on players that aren't injured? I mean if last year was any indication, the last thing we need is another 'injured' player on the roster. Understand I'm not completely against the idea of a player like this, just that at this juncture it doesn't seem wise.

Not sure if it has come up but looks as though Patterson signed on with the Raiders for one year $7 million(?) http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2017/...elle-patterson/

And there's that.

And this.

So you don't think that if they just have the two on the roster compete, and Shaw outperforms Glennon in the camps and pre-season they wouldn't reconsider? What if Glennon gets hurt? What if Glennon turns out to be another Brock Osweiler? You think Dallas intended to draft Prescott and have him start? It was pretty apparent that LA didn't even plan on starting Goff even though he was the #1 overall pick. The point is, you have to deal with the 'knowns' of what is in front of you now. Of the QBs up for the draft, who is capable of starting in the NFL? Of all the NFL teams out there, who needs a QB now? How many of those starting quality QBs will be available in rounds 2 or 3 after other teams pick through them? How many QBs for next year are coming out ready to play? If we stink it up (regardless of our draft this year) where would you want to be to pick that QB next year? What if we play just 'good enough' this year (again regardless of draft this year) and end up at the middle or later picks in the draft? Will we be in a good position then to pick our franchise QB? If I understand right, Glennons contract has an escape clause in it that says the team can jettison him after this season if he sucks without losing too much. Why would they write his contract that way if they didn't think it possible?

When does his jersey go for sale? I'm already ordering it! Get some Coop and welcome to Chitown!!
