Why would you not want that to happen. I know it would cost a lot, but OBJ is a superstar. I am not sure it would cost that much now that his contract pays him most.

But since any bonus converts into a salary when a guy is traded don't you need to be able to absorb the full cap hit? Like $18 million a year?

Kyyle23 Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Is OBJ wanting out of NYG? If he is pulling a stunt like Antonio brown I could see where his price would be lower. But if the Giants are just dangling him for a high price to see what they can get, I can't see the bears having the assets to pull it off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, 4th round comp pick, so thats something. I don't know how it works, but i wonder if they'll get one for Calahan as well? Also, can these picks be traded? It'd be nice to use the 2 4ths to get another 3rd.....or a 3rd and and 4th to get into the 2nd. .....I didn't get a chance to watch the Bears that closely last year, but was Leno really good enough to recieve Pro Bowl considetations? How was Massie? I feel like every year we talk about addressing the OL, but haven't heard any mention of addressing it this year. Is there just nothing out there? Also....Why not Golden Tate? I know he's 30, but isn't the Bears window right now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the signing, assuming Nagy is smart enough to use Patterson correctly and not put him in positions to fail. Like the old Devin Hester to receiver experiment.

I don't know how it works, but i wonder if they'll get one for Calahan as well? I don't think they'll get a 4th, but I hope so. It depends on the contract size. If Callahan's in the 8+ range, it'll be a 5th rounder. Also, can these picks be traded? It'd be nice to use the 2 4ths to get another 3rd.....or a 3rd and and 4th to get into the 2nd. I believe compensatory picks can be traded now but I'm not 100% on that. .....I didn't get a chance to watch the Bears that closely last year, but was Leno really good enough to recieve Pro Bowl considetations? How was Massie? Leno was good. Massie was good. No better than that though. I feel like every year we talk about addressing the OL, but haven't heard any mention of addressing it this year. Is there just nothing out there? I think they like Coward quite a bit as a young guy to develop and I imagine they'll bring Witzmann back. I can see them using a late rounder on an OL too. Also....Why not Golden Tate? I know he's 30, but isn't the Bears window right now? After Patterson I think they're done at WR unless it's a late round pick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jose Abreu Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 I know that #FakeInsiders are a painful memory for us, but there is a weird number of random accounts today that have been claiming Bell signed with the Bears for 4/64 (49 guaranteed). Not sure where it originated from, very likely fake, but I do think we're in on Bell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
