Stop saying great trade for CHI. There are 30 other teams who could have made a trade for him, and obviously didn't value him any higher. He has a rep for a being a total asshole, and if anything, it would make MIA more attractive for Peyton

Bears had what at WR? Marshal is an upgrade for a medium price. It's a great trade.

 

[kingslunk]

There is no other place for VJAX except New England.

Denver could use VJ if manning comes.

Why do you think he ended up in Chicago?

No they couldn't

30 other teams don't have Cutler as their QB. It's a large element to the trade, the two wanted to play with each other again.

 

[dabig2]

Only 2 3rd rounders? wtf

Yeah, and only 1 of them apparently is 2012 (probably Carolina's?). The other is next year's. So the Bears still have all their picks this year. Basically, you can say they got Brandon Marshall for Greg Olsen and some 2013 pick.

Decent trade for Chicago.

Schefter/Glazer/PeterKing on Twitter for me and PFT/Rotoworld.

Thanks bud.

Tampa and all dat money

 

[JaMarco]

Mike Lombardi just said on NFL network Miami is out on Matt Flynn..

 

[Derrick01]

I don't understand how McDaniel could get another job in the NFL.

I don't know either. He's just another failed Belicheck lackey but at least he had the sense to go back there unlike the others.

 

[Plinko]

Tampa and all dat money

That might not be a bad move. In a couple years Freeman will be so big nobody will be able to bring him down. Unlimited passing time.

where da FA signings rawr

 

[Alligatorjandro]

But he has no chance of winning

 

[BakedPigeon]

2 3rd round picks? lol

 

[Nightz]

Here:

Jason La Canfora ‏ @JasonLaCanfora

49ers sign LB Tavares Gooden, former Raven, the team announces #freeagency

 

[LJ11]

Meachem a Bill.

Actually like it, if cheap.

Edit: May be just speculation, why do people tweet something and then change their shit. FUCK OFF!

 

[squicken]

So it's not even two 3rds in 2012? Who knew elite WRs came so cheap? The Rams should call DET and offer second round picks in 2018 and 2019 for Megatron

 

[goldlion054]

That has never been a problem for VJax

They only come that cheap when the elite WR is a nut job.

 

[BakedPigeon]

I feel bad for whoever ends up with Finnegan. What a prick.

 

[yacobod]

shouldn't Lovie and Julius be meeting with Mario right now? where's my announcement.

 

[Nightz]

You son of a...!

 

[Plinko]

The Bears clearly have one goal here: Giving the NFC North both wildcard playoff teams.

 

[jakncoke]

nfl should collude and draw up a pact so no one signs him.

 

[LJ11]

shouldn't Lovie and Julius be meeting with Mario right now? where's my announcement.

He's actually in Buffalo tonight according to Schefter.

A guy on TwoBills drive posted he'd be in Buffalo this morning. We all ridiculed him, guy was legit or lucky as fuck.

 

[Revenant]

Why do you think he ended up in Chicago?

Sorry we're not like the saintly city of Detroit!

I like the pickup for the bears. Not a huge B Marsh fan, but getting Cutler his old buddy, don't have to get in on Jackson, and instantly upgrade the WR corps while departing with two thirds, leaving the bears with 3 earlier picks as is, sounds good to me.

 

[Nightz]

More tidbits:

Adam Schefter ‏ @AdamSchefter

Free agent defensive end Mario Williams plans to visit the Buffalo Bills tonight.

Adam Schefter ‏ @AdamSchefter

Free-agent safety Brandon Meriweather plans to visit the Denver Broncos tonight.

 

[JABEE]

Mario Williams has a scheduled visit with the Bills tonight per Schefter.

 

[jmdajr]

Cowboys. Perfect fit.

Mario... to Buffalo? Well so much for not caring about the money.
How much can he get paid there?

 

[NihonTiger90]

I accept your sympathies for possible future use.

 

[Kellen]

Good to see that the Bears are going to finally have a receiver that is taller than six feet. Now it's time to sign Mario.

 

[Plinko]

Mario Williams has a scheduled visit with the Bills tonight per Schefter.

YES. Please sign there, Mario.

 

[Alligatorjandro]

I feel left out.

I agree with Marshall Faulk saying on the NFL Network this trade is to bring in Peyton Manning. Faulk knows Manning, having played with him in Indy. Doesn't mean he's right here (or that I am). But there's clearly something big behind trading Marshall, because the Dolphins got crushed in the trade. Two third-round picks for a guy who has cap-friendly contracts for Chicago? Why do that unless there's something bigger to it? Stay tuned.

Maybe?

 

[JABEE]

YES. Please sign there, Mario.

Over the past few hours the Bills with loads of cap space came into the bidding.

 

[Raistlin]

Oh shi-

Mario Williams coming to Buffalo tonight. Bills also heavily scouting Robert Meachem.

Cowboys. Perfect fit.

Mario... to Buffalo? Well so much for not caring about the money.

Realistically, all teams have the money ... it's a question of cap space and the Bills should be okay there.

 

[Dutch Gronk]

Are we the new Dream Team yet?

Also, thanks Miami for trading your best receiver.

Brian Hartline got traded?

I think it might be true. no way the Saints sign Colston and can afford to keep Meach. Meach is a pretty cool cat. He doesn't cause any trouble either. He would be an excellent pickup for the Bills as a deep threat.

 

[yacobod]

would've happened this year w/out the unfortunate cutler injury. nobody will give the bears any credit, but we were really hitting on all cylinders at 7-3 when cutler went down. such a shame hanie couldn't even play average or slightly below average. fucker was abysmal.

 

[GoldenEye 007]

Miami Dolphins are a terribly run organization and have been for like 15 years at this point.

Adam Schefter ‏ @AdamSchefter

Free-agent CB Cortland Finnegan scheduled to visit Rams on Friday. Finnegan could rejoin Jeff Fisher.

[Mifune]

Sounds like the Bills are going hard after Mario and Meachem. Both gonna be in Buffalo tonight.

 

[Crazymoogle]

(Stumbles in) Wait, what? Marshall to the Bears? Do the Bears even have a pass-friendly offense these days, or is it just Cutler taking 10 sacks a game?

 

[Plinko]

True on all accounts.

I would be shocked if Miami won over two games next season
