The 4th TE will be cut. Unfortunately, his name will be Desmond Clark…

Great point about Williams Cynic. Until I read your comment, I hadn’t even thought of him at tackle. Time to dust off the cobwebs this offseason.

I love how the name Chris Williams isn’t even mentioned.

The 4th tight end needs to be cut… not sure why we picked him up last year for an offense that doesn’t feature the position we sure had a lotta bodies.

Free agency is our only way to protect our biggest investment (#6) of my lifetime.

As for a big wide out, put Olsen on the outside and play Kellen Davis. Olsen will create mismatches against smaller corners and save the money for a credible tackle.

Taylor and Brandon’s money could be well spent.

Great, another worthless stat to tell me what my eyes saw for 16+ games last year. I didn’t really need a statistical calculation to let me know Frank Ole-miyale couldn’t block a wheel chair rolling up hill.

No disrespect to you, Boom, for posting this article. IMO there are way too many stats in professional sports. All that matters is wins and loses. This new stat for the Bears O-line equates to a 3AM visit to White Castle…no matter what you know, the end result is the same…sh!t!

Damn, I knew it was bad…just not that bad…BEAR JEW to the rescue!!! I really think Carimi will be solid, but I remember, all too well, Stan Thomas, so I agree, spend FA money on at least 2 OL-men to compete and 1 tall WR who can lineup as a REAL redzone threat. Imagine if JC got another 6’5″ target to put opposite Greg Olsen in the redzone? If JC can stay upright long enough to get the ball to the 5 yard line, that would be MONEY!!!
