"This is where everything begins and ends for the Chicago Bears. Jay Cutler has a 2016 cap hit of $17 million. Uncuttable. However, if John Fox is truly ready to move on, there is a massive shortage of quarterbacks in this league and a team could be willing to trade, given if the Bears could eat some of that cap number. Not the greatest, or worst, situation to be in. Then again, Fox does seem to be a fan of Cutler, as least when speaking to the media, so who knows which way the team heads.

Jimmy Clausen and David Fales are both free agents after this season. Who do you re-sign, and who do you let walk? After last Sunday's performance, unless Clausen has a major turnaround, it's hard to see how the team could have any confidence in him as the number two, and one play away from starting. With Fales, we really don't know, although that could be defined this week if he gets some live action reps.

Look for the Bears to draft a quarterback this coming April, but whether it's a first rounder or late rounder, we can't answer yet. What we do know is that it is highly unlikely all three return next season."

its a long shot, but i want one of the teams that have recently lost their qb to lose a few games and become so desperate that the give the bears a call.

as for fox being a fan... it doesnt really seem like it. its mostly coach speak. i mean he waited months before naming cutler the starter, and despite the shitshow that was sundays offensive showing he commented on how it was a positive because it was the first game without an offensive turnover. lol

No team is going to take the cap hit that Cutler Brings.

If he is playing well enough to be worth that hit then we don't need to trade him.

Wait, I thought his contract was smaller next year. Like around 12-14mil.

Where are the green visor posters that have the facts on the contract $$$?

Thanks,

I'm not on board with trading him but 17 million would not scare away a team in need of a QB.

I'd be surprised if he's not still in Chicago 2020.
