You forgot about Chris Long. And Jake Long (his brother, Joe Long, is also on the Bears roster). Then, we could have signed the Schwartz brothers to play guard and tackle. And the Kalil brothers to play center and the other tackle spot.

We might be able to field a team of these if we try hard enough.

****! I did. No Mary Poppins for me then!

I don't want to pay Peppers 18 million bucks to show up for four games and disappear for the rest.

I don't either, but I'm not sure having him count for 8 mil against the cap while having him play somewhere else is a much better option.

I was only joking, the board has been abuzz of this bit of info for a while. It's all good, it's just a little murky, we still in the hunt, and if it all falls through, they have Austen Lane and Trevor Scott!

Seattle is favorite to land DE Michael Bennett, who some regard as the top free agent available. Announcement could come as early as today. Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) https://twitter.com/AdamSchefter/statuses/443068403457466368">March 10, 2014

bennett and his agent's way of sayin... "show me the money"

honestly would be hard to lure a him away from SEA...that defensive unit is great..from the coaching down...it's not like the bears D unit is as appealing...

from what I've read off BR seattle is at 8 mil and chi is at 8.5 mil offerred...

If Bennett is that much of a difference maker a couple more million would be worth it.

I'm kind of amazed at the emotional roller coaster going on here. Sure, Bennett is a nice piece if had for the right price but it's almost like people are counting on him to be some sort of Savior of the defense. He's not that special.

My biggest concern right now isn't whether we get Bennett or not, it's how much he costs if we do in fact land him. $8.5 is a bit steep for my tastes, though I wouldn't be mad at it. I just don't think he's a special player...solid, definitely.

I would agree on Bennett. Nice piece but NOT Peppers when we got him. If we miss on him, then I hope we at least get some solid guys, if not spectacular.
