    Is Brandon Marshall's contract one of the worst in the NFL?

    I don't agree with this article at all. I just posted it here for people to read (AKA please don't kill the messenger ):

    Ever wonder why the Bears were able to acquire Brandon Marshall from the Dolphins for only a pair of third-round picks? It could have been due to his contract.
    Marshall among worst contracts in the NFL

    Brandon Marshall, Bears, WR, $9.5M: He obviously was a bust in Miami and has had domestic troubles and fought with teammates. This would seem to be his last, best shot to continue to earn big money in the NFL. The way the deal is structured, Chicago could get out of it in the future without much cap concern, and Marshall needs to make the most of his reunion with Jay Cutler.

    First, why is NBC Chicago quoting at CBS article by a reporter borrowed from the NFL channel?

    Second, Marshall a bust in Miami? Who hasn't done their homework here?

    Third, I hate those contracts where a team could easily get out from underneath them without much damage to the salary cap. I hate when things work well.

    LOL. Yeah. It's Monday and the Bears news is nil. It's about time for reporters to dust off another Forte article for the zillionth reprint.

    Look at that Jason La Canfora and that smug little look on his face...tool.

    How is that a bad contract? And a bust? LOL The guy was playing for a crappy franchise and with 2 crappy QBs and still got over 1000yds a season and over 80rec per in both years. When was the last time the Bears had a 6'3 WR that could consistently do what Marshall has been doing his whole career? Oh and La Canfora, Marshall also has great chemistry with Cutler.

    Note to self, do not read anymore La Canfora articles unless I'm depressed or having a lousy day and need a great laugh.

    La Canfora is a certified Bear hater. Hes a packer fan. All throughout the 2010 season, I went back and forth with him about how he was going to have to eat crow when the Bears make the playoffs. Well, he ate it big time. Guys is a complete dope.

    Is he really? That little prick shouldn't be writing any articles on the Bears.

    OMFGWTF?!?1? We just traded for a WR that openly tweeted that he wanted to be reunited with Cutler WHILE ON THE DOLPHINS? Wait, what? He had only 1000k+ yards receiving with Matt Moore, Chad Henne and scrubs not worth wasting time on throwing to him? Is it too late to get Bernard Berrian back?

    Probably not, but we have the inside track on Roy Williams
