The draft is also loaded with big bodied receivers. Jaelen Strong at the top of the second round?

And here's the VALUE in trading BM.

Trading WR Brandon Marshall creates $7.7 million cash savings for #Bears and frees $3.95 million in salary cap room.

Cobb is really the only one I'd be interested in.

1. I don't think he'd want to play for Chicago.

2. He's reportedtly looking for ~12m a year.

Exactly. The FA WR market is basically non-existant (which is why that "possible FA replacements" post is fucking hilarious).

It doesn't matter how anyone wants to spin it, this is a game day loss.

I think we should all give EHC his props. Dude has come through twice before the major outlets got a hold of the news.

My guy @AaronLemingNFL had the Marshall-to-Jets trade an hour before Schefter. Great work.

Burn.

So we freed up 3.95m?

It'll be interesting to see how they use that money and if they are now forced to use a draft pick this year on a WR which is much more valuable than salary cap.

I'm more pissed about this late round pick crap. He's still one of the best WR's in the league and he comes with a good salary so WTF is this late round pick crap. It should at the very least of been a 3rd.
