Is she alluding to the fact that you can pleasure yourself?

I had to laugh at that one. I like the move. He still has potential.

I don't see TE as a need. Davis has shown decent skills as a pass catcher and is a good blocker. There doesn't seem to be much value in bringing in another TE as the upgrade would be marginal at best. I would say OL, CB, DL, WR are the biggest need areas.

I agree. I just didn't think there would be anyone in those two categories that would be available at 19 unless Richardson or Tannehill slipped. If that happened, it would be hard to pass on Richardson, and there would have to be some takers for 19 if we did not want Tannehill. I would say we are a year or two off (at least) from drafting a QB in the first or second round.

I think we just need to go BPA at #19, and more than likely that will be an upgrade regardless of position.

Did Ray Rice get a new deal after being tagged? Ray Rice is better in basically every single stat and has outproduced Forte over the last 4 years even though he was not starting that much in his first year. I would take what Rice gets, then subtract about 10% since Rice is younger. If Rice is not complaining, then Forte is really coming across as whining. Also, I think this has more to do with the new franchise tag values than anything else. The Bears have to maximize their cap space, and if Forte's cap hit is going to exceed the franchise tag, then the Bears should not offer him a deal that does.

http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slug=nfp-...all_for_nothing This is hilarious, to think that no one contacted the Dolphins about Marshall except for the Bears. I can think of at least 5-6 teams that would've taken the "risk". The best part is that Miami would have just released him. That would've created an even bigger firestorm and would've been a horrible move. The Dolphins would still be on the hook for the rest of the guaranteed money and would've had a residual cap hit. That would've went over really well in Miami. It seems like Ross is just trying to save face and show how good of a negotiator management is by getting 2x 3rd rounders for someone they were going to release anyway. However, by saying that is what they were going to do makes the organization look even more inept than before.

Didn't Corey Dillon have something like 1,500 yards in 2005? Also, I know there are at least 4-5 1,000 backs on that list.

For their careers, both RB's (Forte and Bush) have the same YPG (4.2) and rushing TD's (21).

Can't wait to see what the players get. Favre always has to be in the news, the hit on him was some of the evidence: http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/...ay-me-my-money/

I am sure Mark Sanchez is loving this. First it was possibly Peyton Manning coming to NY, now he has to deal with Tebowmania all the time. I can just see the fans calling for Tebow after the first 3 and out or INT.

Bush had almost a 1,000 yards rushing and caught 37 balls out of the backfield for over 400 yards, and that was sharing carries and reps with McFadden for 6 games. He is probably one of the best complimentary backs in the NFL.

The best out of division opponents for this year are SF, HOU, DAL, and TEN, and none of those are really scary teams. 11-12 wins seems fairly reasonable to me.

Manning to Moss would've been pretty cool though.

Tebow to Miami? Elway shuns Colts, joins Broncos, Colts shun Manning, joins Broncos.

lol Reggie Bush. Looks like they are trying to get Alex Smith, which to me is not an upgrade at all, especially for the reported $8 mil a year.

https://twitter.com/#/AdamSchefter/status/181488531305267200 Has a team had a worse offseason than Miami has so far? You lose out on Peyton Manning, trade your best WR for 2x 3rd rounders, and now miss out on Matt Flynn.

Did Winston even visit us?

It would be nice to just go BPA the first couple of rounds.

lol, I was all on board: So again, yes please!

To me he said nothing, he is not going to show is hand. We like the look of our offensive line but will look very hard at OLine during the draft? Seems like misdirection to me.

This is awesome, I remember this thread and the BMarsh reunion talk, it just died for a little while and I didn't think they would go this route.

That seems about right.
