Hester Done In Chicago?

If/when the Bears choose to move on from Hester, they’d presumably hope to trade him instead of cutting him.  The former gets him out of the division; the latter means he could end up in Detroit, Minnesota, or Green Bay.

Hester, 30, has a base salary of $1.85 million in 2013.  It’s not an excessive salary to carry, but with a new coach and a G.M. who arrived in 2012, the Bears could decide that it’s time to go younger at the position.

It's gonna be a slow few weeks around here so any news is up for discussion.  What do you think? Ginn(PR)/Hester(KR)

Hester and Ginn is almost a push both as returners and receivers.  Would rather re-sign Kraken this season with the cap space we've created....

 

 

This. Also if all things are equal and we are going to hang on to one of them for a few years Ginn is a couple of years younger.

This is the dumbest thread of the week and it's only Monday.

We got Ginn/Barner cmon man why would we want Hester?

Why would we want Hester? Why would we want anyone? Why do you breathe? Why do you post? So many valid questions here. The Hester one is the easiest so ill type this slowly for you.

1) 1.8 mil is too much for Chicago so he would probably be cheaper.

2) Are we so good at WR and our Dead Last Special Teams Units that we can scoff at the idea of Hester in a Panthers Uni?

3)and finally, on what planet could anyone be dumb enough to say we have Barner(6th round rookie project) so we don't need Hester(One of the greatest return men of all time)?

I'm glad you are not our GM. Like I said we have Ginn as our return guy he is not that bad. Why waste money on a guy who will replace Ginn.

 

So we basically will pay Ginn to sit on the bench. SMH

 

 

We don't need another #3 option WR, if we are gonna sign another WR it should be a guy who can be the #1 WR and we don't have the money to do that right now. I would be all for this deal if we didn't sign Ginn but we did so we don't need to waste money on a player who does the same thing Ginn was brought here to do.

    • There are several posters that only post negative at all times.   8 wins is a big jump from 5 and we still have 2 games.  Jaguars have a much more talented roster than us and have underachieved for years. 
    • All of this noise is just setting us up to lose Week 18 and proclaim life's not fair. If there's one thing I know in my 30+ years of watching the Hornets and Panthers, is that the bad guy always wins in the end. A team can be falling apart internally but we will still lose to them. A team's fanbase can be extra shitty and cocky and they will just win anyway. It always happens
    • Well even if we took diverging paths getting there...our overall assessment of Shough is the same (bolded) lol so I guess that's what matters.  What you call "playing at a level that looks like a veteran starter" is the same thing I'm referencing when I talk about his poise.  Although I still wonder how truly "bad" of a team the Saints are.  Their defense is middle-of-the-road, and their offense does have some good pieces (Olave, Juwan Johnson) outside of running back which is the position most everyone agrees is relatively plug-and-play.  I'm not going to pretend to know anything about the majority of NFL team's o-lines lol but I'm assuming Saints are not great there, although Shough's pressure % seems to have been quite low (and steadily improving) over the last four weeks (20 -> 16.7 -> 15.0 -> 13.0) so maybe they've been playing better as of late, or perhaps Shough himself deserves credit for that.   Some of the language I'm hearing about Shough, including talking about how he's way above league average in several categories, makes it sound like Shough is having a rookie season on par with like a CJ Stroud who established himself as basically a Top 5-10 QB his rookie season.  Maybe that's on me though, I don't mean to attribute anything to you that I'm sure you don't agree with.
