Does Ben Watson's signing with the Browns become a possible trade for the Bears?
After hearing that Ben Watson is through in New England, and that he has signed with the Browns, I got to wondering....Would this be an opportune time to try and shop Greg Olsen to New England for a nice draft pick? New England only has two TEs listed on their roster currently. Neither of them have taken an NFL snap. I would say New England has a need, and some say Greg Olsen is expendable in Mike Martz's offense. It could work. I'm interested in hearing what WCG thinks about this. Is it worth it? Could it happen? Would it help us?

OJ Atogwe Could be a Free Agent as of June 1

Could this be what we're waiting for ? As of June 1 Atogwe will be part of the free agent market , as will any other restricted free agent that was tendered as right of first refusal that is not signed . But the Rams do have a few options with OJ so lets jump right into it !

Desperation v. Deference to Better Football Minds
Sure there were press conferences and the like, but you're telling me it wasn't until now that the Bears caught on to the fact that they were a bad football team, desperate? For a long time the stories wafting from Halas Hall did not pass the smell or the laugh test.
As a Bears fan I am thrilled with their moves in free agency, so far. Nonetheless, I do not think the Bears finally decided to make moves worthy of a premier NFL franchise because they finally saw the light. While I am not privileged as to the inner workings of Halas Hall (shocking isn't it?!), I think it was the presence of Mike Martz and Mike Tice that guided the Bears away from pseudo-shrewd business decisions and towards making moves more likely to win football games.
NOTE: One may say "the desperation led them to bring in these better football minds". Maybe so, but the question still remains why it took so long to take such obvious NFL franchise baby steps in the right direction?

There Are Two Too Many NFL Preseason Games - @Kevin_Payne
I'm still runnin' my eyes over the questions you guys left me last week, and I've found another I wanna respond to. This one comes "JackHammerBM." He asks...
"Hey Kevin. I have a question about the possible addition of 2 more regular season games & subtraction of 2 pre-season games. Just curious to hear it from an NFL players perspective. How do you feel about that?"

Does Chicago Have a New Top Dog?
as most of us know now, Jerry Angelo recently handed Mike Martz an interesting new toy, Chester Taylor. The question I have is who should get the majority of the touches, Matt Forte or Chester Taylor. After comparing the two side-by-side,

Anyone can see its a difficult decision, but one, I'm sure, Martz and Da Bears are going to love to have.
The fact that Matt Forte's rushing Average per carry has never topped 4 yards and Chester's has topped 4 ypc six out of his 8 years in the league is one reason why I feel Chester Taylor should get the majority of the carries. Also, at this stage in Taylor's career he is a much accomplished blocker which is a major asset the bears need because we all know how poor the Bear's O-Line is. The Chicago Bears are going to only go as far as Jay Cutler's arm can take them so the back that will stick his neck between the blitzing backer and Jay should be on the field the majority of the time. I think Mike Martz, Jay Cutler, and the Chicago Bears are going to love the new piece Jerry handed them recently.

Atogwe in Bears Radar?
I don't know if anyone has already posted this before or not and if so im sorry for reposting it. I was looking at some rumors and I spotted this 1. I really hope its true and the Bears make a push to try and get Atogwe from St. Louis.
I believe if we do get Atogwe our Defense will be set and we can focus on our O-line in the draft.

Looking for Bears fans Opinions
Obviously you HAVE TO be happy with Bears off season moves so far.......but do you still want to go after a QB? (ie Vick or McNabb) Or do you think Jay Cutler has the stuff to take the team all the way? Do you think the Bears gave up too much for him? Or is it just an O-line problem? Like the Packers clearly have :-(
Comments please,
Thanks in advance for your opinions Bears Fans!
