heymangold Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 No need no need for forte. now that Cumberland is out and we've been getting no production from the TE spot, we should explore a trade for Bennett. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villain The Foe Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 The coach should have grown a set and cut Cutler when he had the chance and take the cap hit then tried to trade up for Mariota. Cutler is the original version of Andy Dalton...but worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rillo Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Wouldn't mind Bennett. Jets have zero production @ TE and that's no good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRy56 Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Bennett can BALL! He's one of the better tight ends in football. Definitely in tier 1b with guys like Kelce after the likes of Gronk and Graham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bealeb319 Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 traded Allen and Bostic today. What would be fair for Bennett? Or even Forte? A third rounder I would give a first for Bennett, Forte and Alshon but I doubt the Bears are looking to move any of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joewilly12 Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Matt Forte would be a great acquisition. ESPN's Dianna Marie Russini reports the Bears are "looking to unload players that don't fit their scheme" who are left over from the previous regime. ESPN Bears reporter Jeff Dickerson mentioned Matt Forte and Alshon Jeffery as players GM Ryan Pace should explore trading next after shipping DE Jared Allen to Carolina on Monday. There's little chance the Bears trade Jeffery; at least, we don't think Pace is that stupid. Jeffery is making near-minimum, and even though he's scheduled to be a free agent next spring, he's an ideal candidate for the franchise tag if there's no extension. Forte makes more sense. He'll be 30 in December, is in the final year of his contract, and would make for a prime sell-high candidate. Martellus Bennett could also generate some interest.

Xtina Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Reuniting Marshall and Cutler would be a nightmare. There were hostilities brewing in that lockerroom and one of the reasons Marshall was traded was because they can't get along Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sperm Edwards Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 We could certainly use a TE. Maccagnan has to at least inquire what they're asking I like Forte just fine, but I don't know how much I'm giving up for a 30 year old RB (turns 30 in ~2 months; same difference) who's due $6M over the rest of this season and who becomes a free agent in 2016.

Well considering we're idiots for not giving up a 1st for Glennon, I'd say a 2nd and a 4th sounds about right for Forte. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martellus Bennett could also generate some interest. while I don't think it would happen Forte would be a perfect fit for Fitz who does like to check down . Forte is a beast out of the backfield and a combo of him and Ivory would easily be one of the best if not the best tandem in the NFL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetsfan80 Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Actually Ravens have no cap space ($2.5M). How about Tennessee? $24.3M cap space and their RB's are basically trash. Dexter McCluster started the Colts game, but Antonio Andrews got the most carries (more than Sankey), and David Cobb is on IR. Imagine Forte paired with a mobile QB and Ken Whisenhunt? They can afford to give Forte one final payday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prime21 Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Our scheme doesn't utilize TE's in the passing game so they are not going to give a pick for Bennett unless he is a great blocker too. Is he? Not sure. Cutler - no way we are trading for him Forte - Good back and Ivory is in a contract year but this won't happen. We have other pressing needs. Jeffery - Without a QB it wouldn't make sense to have Marshall, Decker, Smith and him. It's like buying new rims for your Isuzu.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such a shame that we could have had Alshon in the 2nd round when he came out. Instead Stephen Hill happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
