It is about insurance.

Windy you're a former pro football player and I'm a Financial Analyst/Consultant. I do this everyday of my life for a living and if you were my client this would be my answer to you regrading this;

Insurance costs more expensive than needed to manage risk. Find cheaper solution.

Some risks must be managed in another fashion than to have a backup for every possible contingency. There is currently no indication that Marshall will even be charged with a crime let alone suspended. There's no need to anticipate something will come from this unless charges are brought. To date they haven't been and it appears unlikely that they will be. The draft is over a month away so there is plenty of time to prepare contingency plans should the need arise.

Marshall's issues with domestic violence appear to stem from his BPD for which he has received treatment and continues to do so. He is fully aware of his disorder and the problems that it can cause. There is a reasonable assurance from him and his doctors that these problems will not be repeated but this cannot be guaranteed. The team is also aware of this and has chosen to accept the risk involved with this.

Some risks must be tolerated in this case. The cost of a standby 100% replacement is too costly at the present time given other needs and in no way assures the same level of performance as that which it replaces. An alternate and less costly solution should be sought.

There ya' go. That's how I'd write my analysis for you if you'd asked.

That's why i say let's address this WR issue once and for all. Knox will be a FA at the end of the year and truned down an extension this past year. Let's get a head start at grooming a WR that will be here for a decade.

Is there something going on here I don't know about. Marshall has been charged with nothing so far. Wouldn't it be prudent to at least wait until we see if he's being charged with something before we consider him convicted by the courts and the league and punished for it? Man but you guys are a bunch of nervous nellies. Do you guys all check under your beds for boogie men before you go to sleep every night?

The good thing is that we should know by the draft if he's being charged with anything and, therefore, more likely to be suspended. In the meantime, it is at least smart for the Bears to have a plan for if he does miss games and a plan for if he doesn't. Whether or not that plan realistically includes Wright, we don't know. But, it sounds like he's promising enough to at least be considered by the Bears. Now, personally, I'd want another big guy before we grab another midget, but that's just me.
