Any interest in former Bears WR Earl Bennett?

The moment I heard that the Bears were going to approach Bennett regarding reducing his pay (after he did so last season), I knew he wouldn't be a Bear much longer and I immediately thought he would be a good fit with the Panthers.  He has great hands and good speed.  Regarding him not taking a pay cut with the Bears and summarily getting cut, I would think the Panthers could scoop him up on the relatively cheap (his salary was only going to be around $3 million, I think).  I don't believe there are any rules that once a player is cut that an offering team has to match the contract figure from his last contract...

 

He'll be a lot better option available than most of the retreads that are likely to be on the scrapheap...

This guy was literally the worst graded WR in the league last year according to PFF.  I don't usually put too much stock into their rankings but if you cant perform with Alshon Jeffery and Brandon Marshall taking heat off you how will he do with King and McNutt?

...That said I'd still take him

I wish. But I'm actually kinda proud that we'll have the worst WR corps in NFL history.

 

yal sound dumb just cause they have no career stats dont mean they will suck.. both of them put up numbers in college there basically rookies with potential.... & everbody also sounds desperate as hell suggesting these old bum ass ninjas with basic talent league expirence isnt everything... we already cleaned house so we might as well start fresh with young talents..nobody over 28..

      Who are the top QB prospects for the 2015 draft?

      Its really going to suck having to blow another top pick on a qb (offensive player) but it has to be done

      WR drops

      But everyone who watched the game generally felt the same way.  You did.   Did you go back and watch the all-22 for Trevor? Because if your intent to is to go back and figure out why he wasn't better than he was..... you can simply find ways the team didn't help him as much as they could of.....with ease.  Any QB.    It's now the 3 straight season openers of explaining away why Bryce wasn't as horrific as it seems.  My days of doing the Dwyane Jarrett defense are long over ( I used to be that dude).  I mean, I just don't get what folks are doing at this point with him.  I have rewatched.  I have rewatched others also rewatching with their takes on it all too.  It's Bryce.   Hyper fixating on a play that you rewatch a hundred times to build the case for the 3rd straight opener of why he doesn't stink as bad as he stunk? Yeah, it's just Bryce.  You really won't need to watch the all-22 in his next stinker to know it's Bryce....when you figure that out on Sunday already.

      This Bryce Film is Rough...

      Just seeing a ball go past the line of scrimmage would be a welcome sight. Watching that Bills vs Ravens game was rough for a Panthers fan. Lasers shooting down the field in every direction.
