100 catches for 1200 yards

Step 1 would be to convince him to stay.

He was upset because it wasn't done, he does not hate the Bears. He will remember which team took a chance on him after his injuries. If he likes the amount offered he will be back

 

[TheWinman]

I'm guessing in a highly functional offense the ball would be spread around more and his numbers would be the same or worse.

this... His numbers would be about the same.

 

[Hbkrusso]

Ya gotta let hicks go and decide to go all in on offense and transition this team into the future
No more half steps

 

[Hbkrusso]

I find the idea of pushing the money to offense intriguing especially with pace at gm we know he can find defensive talent in the draft so he could keep the defence respectable with draft picks on lower costs now if they could figure out how ta build a dynasty like offence and get there imagine it boyos
Domination the likes of which we have never seent

 

[Alpha Male]

@Spunky Porkstacker This feels like dejavu. Want to remind me where I have heard this story before. LOL

 

[ZOMBIE@CTESPN]

That could work.

Just cutting Graham and Hicks gives you 17.5 million, but Hicks would be a rough cut as literally everyone loves him.

How are we going to sign mike glennon if we use that money on robinson?

 

[iueyedoc]

He's getting 19-20M p/year here or anywhere else.

Franchising him will cost $16M, transition tag is $13.9M.

Just transition tag him and let someone else set his market, if it isn't insane, sign him.

Easy peezy.

Pull a fuller situation on him? That would be a big win if the market was set low due to Cap next year.

Being upset with a team is all that it takes to move on. Her don’t know his or the Bears situation.

WRs (an FAs in general) don't give team discounts unless they are playing with Aaron Rodgers or Tom Brady (the younger Brady). FAs always get overpaid. Arob will be overpaid, so if you want to keep him, you have to overpay for him.

Story of pace's life. He is bad at drafting so he has to over pay guys in FA and trades. If you want arob, you will have to overpay him but with a gm that spends dollars like pace money shouldnt be an issue.

 

[CubandBear]

That’s why I say offer him a decent salary but not top 5 receiver salary. If he likes it, great. If he doesn’t, thanks for you play here with the Bears.

You got it
In comparison to the other WR's the Bears have, he is in the top 5...as in a "mirage"

For fuck's sake....

 

[Hbkrusso]

For fuck's sake....

Dudes an important piece on the defence yes but lets be real hes getting older and been injured and at some point the bears need to get their heads out of their asses and start pushing towards the other side of the ball
I love hicks one of my favs but the definition of crazy is doing the same shit over and over
The bears have been building teams defense heavy for along ass time its time ta try something else

 

[BrunoTheRed]

Don't be surprised to see both Leno and Massie cut this off-season. Cutting both will free up a lot of money and the draft is deep at tackle.

Yes, absolutely horrible at drafting.

That's why we have Eddie jackson, roquan smith, Darnell mooney, cole Kmet, Cody whitehair, James Daniels, jaylon Johnson, Bilal Nichols, and David Montgomery all making or have made significant contributions to the team and players like Duke Shelley, Anthony Miller, Treviso Gipson, punchy javon wims, etc also making decent team contributions

 

[WestCoastBearsFan]

Hicks is on the wrong side of 30, hasn’t had a sack since week 3, and is a luxury at this point

 

[Menchifus]

No team is going to sign Arob for 20M/year. Some of you are talking like the Bears are the only team that will be facing a reduced cap next season. Every team is going to get hit and every team has their own players they'd like back. I see Arob's market at around 16M/year.

Earlier in the season his agent accused the Bears of purposely not targeting Robinson in the red zone. I doubt there have been any contract negotiations since then.
