Nads786 Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 I'm not shocked, he's been a very solid player for us. I would like to know if its a team friendly deal, regardless we still need competition at OT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beardown3231 Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 As long as only about 2 of the years are guaranteed, I'll be fine with it. Massie is a solid player but he tends to be best in contract years. Prove me wrong, big man! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Massie signing without testing FA means there will be no contest this year...we could use depth behind Leno & Massie for competition but those two are without doubt the starters... This deal gives you continuity which is always good and I trust HH but this deal all comes down to the contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superman(DH23) Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 Now I'm really wondering if that was an offer to Amos yesterday bc it looks like they are trying to get their loose ends tied up right now to be ahead of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always the best thing to do with guys you really want to keep...your depth guys can go test the market but getting your starters tied up early let you really focus in on your draft plans.

topwop1 Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 I don't think Massie is a bad player but I'm a little surprised by the 4-year extension. I'd think this means the team trusts Massie more than any other potential replacement options out there. Not a bad move but really interested to see the numbers. This likely means that at least one of Amos, Callahan or Lynch won't be back. I'd guess Lynch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Massie and Amos from what I remember have not missed one game so far. I think he really values that. I could see Callahan walking because of that.

GOGRIESE Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 Massie has played fairly well for us. Good deal. I want that OL intact as much as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big reason he never went all in of Alshon...Callahan could be the odd man out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beardown3231 Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 Can we edit the title with his first name spelled correctly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugashane Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 IDK how I feel about this yet, I'll know more when I see his deal. He has been average at best IMO, and we shouldn't do more than 2 years guaranteed, and I'm betting now that year 3 is where he can be cut with little dead cap if he declines. He made about $5.1 mil this season, I don't feel he should be making more than that. Really I think I would be more of a fan if we ran a predominantly zone scheme, he doesn't seem to be able to drive anyone but is a plus athlete. Really that showed a lot for most of the season for our starters. It is just a poor fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malak1 Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 Per Field Yates: Bears under contract through at least 2021: Khalil Mack, Kyle Fuller, Roquan Smith, Akiem Hicks, Mitch Trubisky, Eddie Goldman, Bobby Massie, Charles Leno, Jr., Trey Burton, Kyle Long, James Daniels, Anthony Miller, Taylor Gabriel. Excellent nucleus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmike90 Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 Contract wise it would be good if this was around $6 per year given that it would offset Sims being cut...$10-$12 mill guaranteed in the first two years then an out in 3 & 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
