Hope he continues to age. Geesh...

This is the way to do it! It may not satisfy immediately, but will long term.

Cutler doesn't like short receivers. Where's Wesson when you need him?

Agreed. Anyone want to try to tackle a NFL RB that is untouched by the front 7. That will shorten anyone's carreer. Let alone trying to cover when your DL can't generate any pressure.

Don't rule Peppers signing back with us. Unless, of course, he rules it out...

I don't like pushing contract money out in this instance. If you think it's a championship move, go for it. I don't see Bennett as the missing piece to a good enough defense. I'd rather build the economical way by using the draft and reasonable FA contacts. Get an identity first, then put the cherry on top.

Not at penny over 8 mil per...

If Briggs is truly unhappy I would trade or cut him before the offseason program begins. If you are building a new defense, you don't want one of your elders crowing on about "glory days" and management moves. I want guys with their eyes positively on the present and future.

His value is here. I still believe he's staying.

We could have Ronnie Lott and Ed Reed in their prime and they would suck with the front 7 we had on the field. If they are writing that, they are idiots. For Emery to pull that string, I'm excited knowing he has a plan for protecting them. Unlike what JA did when he thought Cutler was going to fix the OL and WR corps...

Especially, when during the last game of the season, he had a great game and was the fastest guy on the field. He's worth 1.5 mil in my book.

Lovie still thinks he's a number 1 receiver.

Watching him "live" in the last game of the season, he was the fastest guy on the field.

I've been on board with drafting a RB. Too much at stake with Forte being as important as he is. Add to that his age and mileage, I consider a good prospect a important priority. Same with a speed guy...

I would go 2 years 5 million and fully guarantee it. Cutler will get hurt again and McCown will be worth every penny.

Thanks for the video. I like him. Has the same instincts as Hester. Not quite as sudden, but stays on his feet better after contact.

If they believe he can live up to potential, in a heartbeat.

Crazy DL side note; been working with Tank Johnson's brother lately. Cool kid.

Ealy killed the 3 cone, which is great for that position.

Zero to five yards put Sapp in the HOF.

I can't picture Emery not giving Peanut's agent a ball park of what they are thinking. It would be unthinkable to leave him hanging completely. Too much respect to give with him...

Leaders not only do the work they are supposed to do, but teach, preach and enforce others to the same standard. A good leader can be a mediocre player, but make talented players great. A good example would be Ron Rivera during his tenure as a LB with the Bears. His nickname was "Teach" and was respected by Hall of Famers on the team.

Replying to the last two posts from TD and Crackerdog. I think you both correct in the terms of the Cutler deal. It's in the eye of the beholder on whether you feel he will be worth it or not. The staff has deemed it worth, so as of now, I'm behind it until it doesn't work. At that time, I'll determine my faith in the new brass. So far, they get an A on offense and a F on defense. Let's see how the rebuild continues....

I think he will. Problem is, the O was taylor made for a quick overhaul, as the key skill positions were set. The D will be a different beast. First, we need to find an identity on D. Secondly, finding those leaders for it will be tough.(and can our coach coach it???) Lastly, putting capable components on the field in a cap tight year is gonna hurt.
