Has there been any confirmation on us giving him an extension? I heard 4 years $24 million but not sure if it's legit.

Yes, It's been confirmed. 4 year 24 million / 10 million guaranteed.

Olsen agreed to a four-year, $24 million extension with $10 million guaranteed, an NFL source told ESPNChicago.com's Jeff Dickerson.

Holy poo how the hell is this still going?

because we have been in football hell since game two of the 2010 season and been threatened with no football at all and now all of a sudden there's football and we're making our biggest trade move in a decade. AND we bent the bears over to do it.

The Bears fans don't just look at strictly sacks. We look at how many int, his pass deflections, FF's and the fact that teams had to account for him constantly in the pass rush and especially against the run.

So yeah the Bears were really happy with JP. I personally don't care if Johnson had 10 more sacks than Peppers, Peppers gets a lot of pressure and helps our DL get better. Can't ask fr more.

You could ask him to play as well as Charles Johnson, but that might actually be asking too much...

    • I'm honestly looking beyond DC at this point. He's too green and is making too many simple mistakes. I think he's gone after next year. I think the intention in LV was to use Mayer and Bowers similar to Gronk/Hernandez in NE. That's never really struck me as Carroll's MO though after watching him for years out here in Seattle.  He's talented enough and I think he just got lost behind the phenom that is Bowers because he couldn't develop in Carroll's system. I'm surprised Bowers is used as much as he is, though they really don't have anyone else. TE's don't really exist as focus receivers in Carroll's offense. I live in the PNW so I've been subjected to a lot of Seahawks football.  Coaches other utilize their TEs. We should too. Tremble is OK, but he's always been a project as a receiver. Again, all this is of we could get him at the right price. I wouldn't pay a lot because we need to spend on defense. 
    • David. Hey, money talks.....it has been acknowledged that Tepper isn't shy on spending. He's had the NFL equivalents of used car salesman after used car salesman line up to grift him of a big chunk. Canales is one of them.  Until that changes, it's gonna be tough to build anything to last.
    • Well it's who they tied themselves to for at least another year but i agree. They will be lucky to find a useful contributor but until I see the DC situation change I am presuming it's SSDD. Well it sounds like maybe in 2027.
