Bears: Olson out, Marshall in?


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

Two items of interest from PFT:

Rumors abound that Bears want Brandon Marshall

Olsen unhappy with hiring of Martz, wants a trade

I think it'd be wise to keep Olsen, but if you lost him and got Brandon Marshall, it'd be a decent trade off.

Regarding Marshall, the question is what it would take to get him. Are the Bears prepared to send more high draft picks to Denver for yet another disgruntled Bronco?

Latest word from the Bears is that they have no intention of trading Olsen.

The lack of a first round pick likely means no Marshall either, unless the Broncos are willing to accept a lower offer, which they have no real motivation to do.

(PFT clarified it has to be their own first rounder, and from this year, which they don't have)

Probably more likely they go after Anquan Boldin or one of the other free agent names.

Also the outright release of Tommie Harris.

What coulda been, T... if only you had better knees... for a couple of seasons there, he couldn't be stopped! He reminds me of the rapid rise and release of one Kris Jenkins... time will tell how much their stories parallel each other.

    • Apparently CSW lost his starting job to Thornton last year. If he can stay healthy I bet Thornton keeps that NB position. 
    • I member him staying after practices with only to see he was wearing heavy weight vest, one of his trademarks. He also put in 10 years, right? People forget he was the ST stud that called the snap and made sure everyone lined up right. He was one of the "glue" guys that bought his "lunch pail" to work.... He was a willing solider, all teams need a couple of them. He blocked for sooo many panthers RBs- Davis, lane, Williams, foster, goings and when there was huge injuries he took over the starter duties and had a couple 100 yard games. If you followed hoover, he took the perfect RB path cause he was just a slow heavy one himself....
    • Walker likely depends on a couple of things. What exactly did Dan promise him, to start with.  How much other interest he actually had for a starter job at high pay is another question. It isn’t outside the realm of possibility that he could stay on as a swing tackle waiting to take Moton’s spot when it opens.    I can’t get myself to consider Icky as a viable anything until we see him back on the field.     Hunt seems to be a team player and good guy but I don’t think he is worth what he is being paid. I have him tentatively earmarked for cap causality in the near future.
