Bears4Ever_34 Posted December 23, 2011 Report Share Posted December 23, 2011 I don't know about anybody else but I think Khalil Bell is a pretty damn good football player. He's a horrible pass protector but he can do just about everything else. He's alot quicker and faster than Forte. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connorbear Posted December 23, 2011 Report Share Posted December 23, 2011 Barber can go. I would rather we bring in a RB in the lower rounds of the draft and keep Bell as the backup. Peace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peace Barber is the perfect compliment to Forte if Forte is healthy...he doesn't need a lot of carries, but he does the one thing that Forte is just really bad at...getting short yardage when the other team expects the run.

They can draft a battering ram in the latter rounds. Barber needs to go, as he can't be depended on to stay healthy. Plus, he's not tremendously bright on the football IQ. Plus a true successor to Forte needs to groom as he gets older. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madlithuanian Posted December 24, 2011 Report Share Posted December 24, 2011 No problem there. Is Brandon Jacobs free next year? They can draft a battering ram in the latter rounds.

There's a lot better positions to use a 5th or 6th rounder on, unless the Bears find a guy who also is useful on ST. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
