This might turn out to be a good thing for the offense in the long run. Obviously, Marshall is an absolute beast, but it might of hurt the Bears that him and Alshon were so similar with their abilities.. They are both big guys who can go up and catch any ball but the Bears definitely lacked not having a speed WR to compliment them and spread the offense out.. Marshall is a better WR then almost anyone out there, but I think Alshon and a WR like desean jackson or even Percy Harvin would be a better fit just because you have two wideouts who bring completely different abilities to the field. It would be exciting to watch the Bears get a great speed wideout just to see how the offense looked.. And I know people are looking at the WR position and not seeing anything besides Alshon, but they still have free agency and the draft to upgrade the position. Most teams would take the Bears position though just because of Alshon. He is a special talent that most teams wish they could find.
I can see why alot of people are angry over the 5th also.. It just seems like such a low value for one of the best WR in the game.. But Im guessing that Pace thought this also and put everything he had into getting a better package than a 5th rounder.. You would think that most NFL teams would give up a 3rd in a heartbeat for a guy like Marshall but these GM's are almost obsessive over keeping draft picks.. Pace must of searched everywhere for a better deal but just couldn't find one.
