October 8, 200520 yr i tried to find the link this morning and i can't, but lets suppose the redskins would waive lavar, should the dabears make a grab for him???
October 8, 200520 yr The skins are already screwed Cap Wise, releasing LaVar would only increase the pressure there. And the Bears already have 3 good LB's and don't need to upgrade there. G/WR/TE and a S is where they need to upgrade.

Lavarr Arrington would push this Bears defense to a whole new level. Our holes on D right now are OLB, S and at times DT. You are right though the Bears would look into a WR or a TE long before they'd look at a LB simply because of how good their defense is compared to their offense.

Well Arrington right now isn't contributing very well for the Skins, hence why they are considering cutting him. He's not doing a good job stopping the run, and just wants to rush the passer all day. Granted Hillemeyer ain't on the level of Urlacher and then Briggs, but it's not a gaping hole that the Bears need to fill. DT I think you got a pretty good rotation in there with Harris / Johnson / Scott, better than other teams in the NFL for sure. And I really think the Bears need a Witten/Gates/Shockey at TE, it'd take their passing attack to a whole new level, and really open up the field for whoever is the QB.

Right now the one thing we should be looking into is replacing Desmond Clark, he looks old and bad. By adding a TE Orton would have a steady reciever to match up against LBers across the middle which would be huge for Kyle. Hunter may be a decent LB but it is a hole, he's extremely unathletic and is pretty pathetic in coverage. He's the one of the reasons that the Bears run so much nickle, this way we get him off the field and get a quicker, more athletic and better player on the field in Azumah. This creates a problem when you're constantly sending 2 LBers and 5 DBs out there for every down. Comming into the season DT was a hole for the Bears, I was pretty confident in Ian Scott but it was tough to say if he was going to be able to produce like he did at the end of last season. Through the first 3 games Scott has shown that he can be a starter in the NFL, though Harris looks like s*** right now, this could be contributed to the injuries he's been battling.

October 8, 200520 yr If LaVar gets released we need to go after him. We dont have many holes on defense but with Hunter Hillenmeyer he is one. If we do this basicly we can concentrate all on offense in the draft unless a stud CB is available.
