WHarris1 Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 All Bears draft picks have now been re-signed, AA re-signed, Roach back. Got a punter, the blocking TE and a good special teamer, an upgrade at WR. Ok Ok, we're getting there, slowly but surely. Get Kreutz in the fold and make a couple splashes.

The Bears are gonna f***ing blow. 2007 all over again. Rosenhaus moved Olsen out of Chicago pretty much himself. Dude didn't want to be here.

It's nothing special, but they at least are taking care of some priorities. My biggest concern this season is the opening schedule. That's 3 tough games to start the season, and it's hard to dig out from an early hole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are basically the same team as last year, but worse on the O-line. I am still not optimistic until we bring in two legit starting o-linemen, and a real WR.

So right now Garza is our starting center. And I like Carimi, but he is a rookie with no off-season working with the Bears players or playbook.

Soxbadger Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 Carimi shouldnt have any problem as hes a tackle and will be coming to an offense that doesnt run half as many run plays as Wisconsin. And he immediately should make an impact in pass blocking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHarris1 Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 (edited) Contrary to popular belief the offseason is not over. Actually, free agents haven't even been able to sign contracts yet. Edited July 29, 2011 by WHarris1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I look at the teams Roy Williams has been on and success has been pretty evasive for them. edit- On second thought, I really dont know which statement applies to which player.

That's past his prime? Yeah, his production isn't what it was in Detroit, but is that a physical, toll of injuries, getting older issue or something else?

Chisoxfn Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 QUOTE (knightni @ Jul 29, 2011 -> 12:57 PM) They're both overpaid, past their prime, possession receivers. I don't know if Williams is past his prime or not. He went to a place where he wasn't the #1 option and at times was more the #3 option. With that he got lackadasical and his play and statistics suffered. In Chicago, it will be a completely different scenario. He will be the #1 wide-out, although Knox/Hester/Bennett will still get a lot of playing time, but Williams is the only one with his size/stature. Williams isn't old or out of his prime. I really think the big reason his play/stats suffered had to do with him being soft mentally and not getting the love in big D. I don't think that will be the case in Chicago cause there is just no way the Bears offense isn't heavily built around him. Plus, he should be able to adjust relatively quickly and learn the system soon, which will be great. I really like this move, but I've always liked Roy. And I have always felt the Bears needed a guy with this type of talent a top our wide receiving corps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoSox05 Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 Wiliams will probably have about 50-60 catches. 800 yards and about 5-7 TD. Anything more than that and I would be shocked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxFan1 Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 29, 2011 -> 04:53 PM) Bears targeting Vernan Gholston He'd probably be cheap and pairing him with Marinelli surely couldn't hurt. I'm also a big proponent of going after Amobi Okoye. He didn't fit in the Texans 3-4 scheme but I think he'd be a hell of an addition for us. Idonije-Okoye-Adams-Peppers with Wootton, Paea, Toeaina, Melton, and Harrison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
