WindyCity Posted October 12, 2017 Author Share Posted October 12, 2017 People were defending this free agent class. Wheaton was setting 6 million on fire. Sims is now doing nothing but taking reps away from Shaheen. Our 2 highest skill position players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topwop1 Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Returns on this recent free agent class have been terrible so far but the good thing is that none of these deals will set the Bears back for future years to come. Pretty sure they can cut most of these guys next off-season without much cap ramifications. What this shows though is how important it really is to draft well and not rely on free agency to fill in most of the voids on your team. Most of the times these players reach the market for a reason so expectations should be tempered. Not every FA is going to be a home run like Akiem Hicks, especially when you've been a bottom feeder team like Bears have been the past few years.

blkwdw13 Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Well looks like he is definitely done with the Bears now, at least in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEAR FACE DOWN ARROW Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 I honestly can't recall if Wheaton or Wright was the one who was bad or really bad... What a group! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wright hasn't been bad. He's actual been the most reliable Bears WR IMO. He should be getting way more snaps then he does. Anyone down for Josh Gordon if and when he gets reinstated? He's good friends with Wright as the two attended Baylor together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would take a serial killer if it made Trubisky's transition a little easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEAR FACE DOWN ARROW Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Thanks for the refresher. I pay attention to games but cannot for the life of me recall anything about the Bears current receivers. I'm either getting old or they've been scenery for every game. Gordon would be great, he was a really exciting player and I think is still in his mid 20's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pigsooie5 Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 This is EXACTLY what scares me about going the mediocre tier 3 route with WRs in FA. That's why the Paul Richardsons/Albert Wilsons/Jaron Browns aren't going to cut it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about Hank Baskett? You know the reason the 2009 Bears flopped is because they didn’t pursue Hank Baskett. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topwop1 Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 I'm trying to think of which WR group was worse, this one or the one the Bears had in 2010 with Knox, Hester, Bennett, Davis and Aromashodu.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topwop1 Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Navorro Bowman just got released from the Niners. If I were Pace I would go after him considering all the injuries they have right now at LB. Also, the connection only makes sense with Fangio having coached him before.
