Bears seeking trade for Martellus Bennett

Benji, Funchess, Olsen, and Bennett on the field at the same time?

Cam would be delighted! Though I don't see us trading for Bennett and giving him a big(ish) payday, while losing a draft pick as well. I think we'd be better off pursuing someone like Antonio Gates if he doesn't resign with the Chargers because he wants to try and get a ring, or even look at Ladarius Green who has shown flashes of upside.

Fully expect if #Bears cannot find trade partner for Martellus Bennett, that they end up releasing him. 
Sources around the NFL have told Biggs that they doubt the Bears will be able to trade Bennett.

According to Biggs, Bennett frustrated coaches and teammates last year and things reportedly went off the rails in their practice before their Thanksgiving game at Green Bay.

Welp...

Let him be someone else's problem.  We don't need that in the locker room.

Martellus is a 3 down guy so it would be a huge upgrade over Dickson.  He's a better blocker and better tight end all around.  If they can swing it they should.  Not saying it's probable.

You really think he wants to be a #2 mostly used to block? He is easily a top 15 TE in the league. No chance.

"Not saying it's probable"  Reading is fundamental.

    • Exactly He's played two seasons and started 28 games. He's well beyond the point of being able to point to 2 or 3 games and being able to say, "THAT is the QB he is and will be in the future" Of course he can get there, but anyone trying to use just those couple of games to rank his place amongst the games QB's today and their full career's worth of playing at that level, is just asinine. Mahomes, Allen, Lamar, Burrow, Hurts, Herbert, Daniels, Stafford, Goff, Geno, Purdy, Baker, Love, Dak, Tua, Kyler, Lawrence That's 17 QB's right there that have played better over their careers than Bryce has played at his best.  And I'm not saying they're all studs or guys I'd want to be our QB moving forward, Tua for example I wouldn't touch with a 10 foot pole, but his body of work is a million times better than Bryce's has been. It's also not including any of the other QB's drafted in 2023/2024 other than Daniels. So again, say you believe in Bryce, say you think he's going to prove he can and should be our QB of the future, that's all fair and totally fine. But nobody can say he's been an above average QB in his career thus far, it's just an asinine notion.
    • I'd think we could get one of those from Dallas for... whatever.
