Bears Acquire Brandon Marshall
By DeCon
Well, well, Mr. Emery…perhaps the background check the Bears did on you didn’t uncover the fact that you are a skilled thief and I couldn’t be happier!!!
In a stunning move, the Bears have traded two 3rd round picks for Pro Bowl WR Brandon Marshall. This moves effectively gets the band back together, teaming Jay Cutler and Marshall along with QB Coach Jeremy Bates in the hopes of finding the success the trio had in Denver together a few short seasons ago. I think this is a GREAT move for the Bears. Marshall is signed through 2014 and his 2012 cap number is “only” $9.5M which is likely less than it would have cost the Bears to go after Vincent Jackson. Kudos to Emery and the Bears for making a move that makes PERFECT sense. Now the cherry on top of my sundae would be for the Bears to land Mario Williams to team with Julius Peppers and make our defense dominant in 2012.
Welcome to Chicago, Mr. Marshall, my cup just got a little fuller of the blue and orange kool-aid!!!
CAN I GET AN AMEN?!?!?!?!?!
