Not sure why so many are heated up about Bennett- He was very solid in 13 and 14... but Miller filled in admirably last year.
Sure, the Bears let go of a guy that might have a bit of life left in him... but they also may have gotten rid of a guy at a great time- 13 and 14 may have been the absolute pinnacle of his career. It isnt like he is going to bump Gronk for snaps.
Miller isnt a step down based on last year. Dude earned a shot, and he is young.
Mongo- I am actually bewildered as to why you are taking the stance that you are here... unless you are trolling of course- You have long advocated getting rid of cutler.
This is a similar situation. It is a guy that can be servicable, but the ship has sailed on him being great.
He made the pro bowl as an alternate once.
beyond that, he he has a couple of warts in his character, he is aging, and the bears wound up getting something out of it PLUS making room for a younger player with potential.
It just seems like a double standard- You would have been overjoyed to dump Jay and eat a crap ton of money while getting nothing for it- yet Bennet, a kind of similar situation, you are up in arms about not getting enough.
