PrintVaughn McClure has provided us with a look at the contract details for 3rd round picks Jarron Gilbert and Juaquin Iglesias.
Gilbert, the defensive tackle out of San Jose State, was the team's first pick and, thus, received the highest signing bonus of the group with $886,500 guaranteed. Iglesias, the receiver out of Oklahoma, received a signing bonus of $619,900.Like their fellow rookies,Gilbert and Iglesias will have the following base salaries: $310,000 in 2009, $395,000 in 2010, $480,000 in 2011, and $565,000 in 2012 for a total base value of $1.75 million.
Including the guaranteed money, Gilbert's contract is worth $2,636,500 and Iglesias' deal is worth $2,369,000.
Considering the Bears didn't pick until the 3rd round of this year's draft, we aren't having to shell out a ton of money to our rookies. This will both help preserve cap space and provide a nice reserve for either trying to pick up a big name free agent WR, or it give us some wiiggle-room should we do any contract negotiations with some of our more expensive players.

How sweet would it be if we swung a deal for Brandon Marshall
who just skipped mandatory minicamp? I think that would put us as easy favorites to win the NFC.

I'll pass...
on trying to make Chicago the new location for people trying to leave Denver… not to mention, doesn’t he beat women?
PC Load Letter? WTF does that mean?!

I wouldn't care if he got in a fist fight w/ the Pope
He’s a big, physical receiver that could GREATLY help our team out.

And he has a proven track record with Cutler...
If we don’t try and get him in a trade then he should definitely be our #1 offseason target next year.

Completely agree
More than likely our best bet would be to play this season and see what our receivers can do, and if need be go after him next off-season.

Offering incentive/motivation
My good friend and I believe strongly in these factors. Players who get passed on, or fall in the draft for whatever reason seem to play with more passion; it has a lot to do with getting paid on their second contracts. Most players only get one shot to get a big contract.

I know this isn't necessarily the forum but
On Monday Plaxico Burress’s court case is to be adjourned until sometime in September which means teams won’t know his fate until then. Can anyone justify making a move for Burress now?

i was thinking about that when i read the article...
don’t see how it’s a postive move to have pushed it to the beginning of the season… i’m sooooo confused!!!
Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgement that something else is more important than fear.
Link?

I suck at links.

First,
Type a word, like this:
Then, highlight the word, and click the chainlink icon below the subject line (just to the left of the green tree). A box pops up. Paste the link into the box, and click “open in new window”.
The you can preview, or post.
Be nice. Flag comments that you think are offensive. Use the "reply" button. Drink plenty of water. Compliment others. "Rec" comments and posts you like. Don't call people names. If you don't like someone's comment, attack the comment and not the commentor. Learn the difference in your/you're, then/than, to/too. Exercise. Relax. Stretch often. Find good in the world.
I tried the chains. Typing the word link and highlighting may have helped. Thanks.

neat
this will save a bunch of money to give to cutler next year after he gives us 40 td’s and a shiny new lombardi trophy this year.
