All I can say is no to Finley. Rather sign 19 UDFAs and see who could play in the NFL than sign that P o S

I agree, very overrated player better off with a mid-late draft pick or cheap FA imo

This is why the Bears continue to suck you keep "buying" players in free agency and neglecting the salary cap. The Cap is 120 Million. Here are how Da Bears are spending that money:
1. Jason Campbell 3.5 Million
2. Jay Cutler 9.6 Million
13.5 + Million for QBs
3. Matt Forte 6.8 Million
4. Michael Bush 2.0 Million
5. Kahlil Bell 1.2 Million
6. Evan Rodriquez 0.5 Million
7. Armando Allen 0.4 Million
11 Million on Running Backs
1. Brandon Marshall 10 Million
2. Devon Hester 8 Million
3. Earl Bennet 3 Million
4. Kellen Davis 2 Million
5. Alshon Jefferies 1 Million
6. Matt Spaeth 2 Million
7. Erick Weems 2 Million
8. Kyle Adams .5 Million
29 Million on Recivers/TEs
Compare to Green Bay:
1. Aaron Rodgers 9 Million
2. Graham Harrell .5 Million
Quarter Backs 9.5 Million or 4 Million Less than the Bears
1. Cedric Benson 1 Million
2. John Kuhn 2 Million
3. Alex Green .5 Million
4. James Starks .5 Million
5. Brandon Saine .5 Million
5 Million for Running Backs or 6 Million less than the Bears
1. Randall Cobb 1 Million
2. Donald Driver 2 Million
3. Jermichael Finley 5 Million
4. Greg Jennings 7 Million
5. James Jones 3 Million
6. Jordy Nelson 4 Million
7. Jarret Boykins .5 Million
8. Ryan Taylor .5 Million
9. DJ Williams .5 Million
24 Million for Receivers and T/Es or 5 Million less than the Bears
Do you see the theme?

They spent a half-eaten Kit Kat bar and 3 stale potato chips on the offensive line.

Except Omiyale who was paid like a Top 5 LT. Thanks Jerry!

Yeah, but in fairness to Jerry Angelo, it was rumored that Omiyale could jump out of a swimming pool. You can never have too many pool jumpers (or safeties).

That is very interesting. Going by production, our WR and QB should not be as high as theirs. I do think we have the best tandem RB in the league, so I'm ok with more than average money there. We just need someone that actually knows how to use this advantage.

I think that was Jarron Gilbert, that DT bust from San Jose State.

Scheffler and Finley would be amazing pickups and be instant upgrades at TE (not saying much I know). But they are the two best on the market IMO. With Wallace, throw him in the slot for a deep threat he (along with Marshall and Jeffery) would be a dominant WR crew.
Scheffler was with JCut at Denver.
"Following the 2007 season, Scheffler, Cutler and Marshall went to Atlanta together to train and work on timing for the 2008 season."
It would be good to have the family back together again.

.. Which Bears are due to become free agents?..
Eighteen Bears players are due to become unrestricted free agents:
Kahlil Bell,
Zack Bowman,
Jason Campbell,
Kelvin Hayden,
Geno Hayes,
Israel Idonije,
Lance Louis,
Olindo Mare,
Josh McCown,
Henry Melton,
D.J. Moore,
Troy Nolan,
Amobi Okoye,
Chilo Rachal,
Nick Roach,
Jonathan Scott,
Chris Spencer and
Brian Urlacher.
Nate Collins is set to become a restricted free agent, while
Armando Allen is due to become an exclusive rights free agent.
I realize I may be jumping the gun a little here, seeing as we don't know exactly who is going to be running/setting up the offense, but info is info..
I don't see the bears keeping Bell, Bowman, Campbell, Nolan, or Mare. DJ Moore is/was a Lovie favorite, and could very well be allowed to go as well. A. Okoye, McCown were let go last year as well, unlikely the bears keep them. Rachal will probably be allowed to walk due to the way his season ended. Collins and Allen are both rather far down the depth chart, I view them as likely to become free agents.
Could Izzy be allowed to walk due to cap concerns? Also, how much would Scott and Spencer cost, IF they were deemed worthy of retention? Are there persons that I am wrong about being allowed to walk? comments? questions? concerns? Insults? (probably don't need much help with that last one)
