maggsmaggs Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Great job by the Bears giving their players the money and nice to see Vasher take less than what he could have gotten in the Free Agent market. Don't ya wish other players (cough cough 55) would do that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted June 25, 2007 Author Share Posted June 25, 2007 I think it is also real nice to see Vasher ink because it shows the org still tries to take care of its own and this should at least slightly end the negative stigma that has been going around due to the Briggs situation.

The Bears have offered him market value...he thought he was worth more. Briggs is entitled to get frustrated but the Bears haven't done anything wrong (and briggs is obviously entitled to his opinion as he always had shut up and play and now feels worthy of that major deal that enables him to be secure for the rest of his life).

Yeah I hear that I was just asking why Briggs should take less money to stay with the Bears, directed from the post above up there.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

briguy27 Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 I love it. I hear Peanut could be next. I would love to have Vasher and Tillman together until 2012 BEARS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxFan562004 Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 I like Vasher a lot, I think this was a solid signing. It seems the Bears have been very smart about their salary cap signings, ie not signing guys who are impossible to cut in 2-3 years if it's necessary. I think Vasher got a lot of respect last year, and I don't remember him getting burned for many big plays Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanOfCorn Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 I think Peanut is next. Tommie scares me though. Isn't his agent Rosenhaus? I think he has two years left on his contract, if that's the case, I can see the Bears waiting until next offseason to have more money available (going by $14 mil for Vashers signing bonus and assuming Tillman gets the same). But that might hurt the Bears. I don't know, man, I think Tommie Harris needs to be signed, but I'm not sure he won't want to try the open market.

dasox24 Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 (edited) Anyone else kinda worried we won't re-sign Peanut... I mean, speculation has been that we'd re-sign Tillman and let Vashar go b/c we wouldn't pay them both. Will we pay them both now? I think Vashar would have been more easily replaced, so I hope we don't let him go. Edited June 26, 2007 by dasox24 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
