balta1701-A Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 Barring something unforeseen, the Bears career of wide receiver Devin Aromashodu is over. Aromashodu did not receive a tender offer from the team, which effectively means the Bears have no interest in retaining him. When free agency begins after a collective bargaining agreement is reached, Aromashodu will be free to sign with any team. Link Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alaskan Grizzly Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 What a shame. As 2009 drew to a close I thought that DA would for sure be the "it" WR the Bears needed for Cutler. That and Cutler seemed to favor him. But c'est la vie. Good luck Devin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he couldn't beat you deep, he wasn't going to get it done. He fooled alot of people into thinking he was the second coming of Brandon Marshall. Bye bye.

AZ54 Posted March 5, 2011 Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 Talent without heart. At least once again the Bears are showing this offseason, like last offseason, they are no longer hanging onto "hope" with players and making decisions based on performance.

Hopefully, JA drafts that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
defiantgiant Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 Hopefully, JA drafts that way. Agreed. Fingers crossed that we don't see any more athletic-with-upside-picks like Danieal Manning. Manning eventually panned out (which is more than you can say for most of JA's upside picks) but it took so long that the Bears were a mess at his position for like 3 seasons. And Manning's probably the best-case scenario for that kind of draft pick. No more of those guys, please - it's not worth it even when they turn out OK. That's the one thing I'm hopeful about with Ruskell on board. The thing that got him canned from Seattle was that he always took guys with a high floor and a low ceiling. He'd always go for the solid, productive, unspectacular guy, and so he ended up with a really polished team that was very mediocre athletically. If there's one thing you can say for the guy, he would never have picked players like Manning or Jarron Gilbert or Mark Bradley. I'm hoping that he and Angelo kind of cancel each other out, and we draft some athletic guys who can actually play football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
