I still don't see how Chicago gets better in the next 2 years given the draft picks and talent that they gave up for Cutler.
I guess the WRs could get a little better but the OLine, RB and overall defense will suffer.
I don't agree. Granted, they have less margin for error, with having less draft picks, but with all of the problems they had this year, they still went 7-9, which isn't
that bad.
They need to maximize the draft picks they do have, make some good free agent signings, and hire some good offensive coaches, and they could easily be a playoff team next year or the year after.
Well, their track record doesn't give much hope for that, does it?
Who's track record switz? The Bears or Angelo?1st round picks(David Terrell, Marc Columbo, Michael Haynes, Rex Grossman, Tommie Harris, Cedric Benson, Greg Olsen, Chris Williams)
2nd round picks(Anthony Thomas, Charles Tillman, Tank Johnson, Mark Bradley, Daniel Manning, Devin Hester, Dan Bazuin, Matt Forte)
3rd Round picks(Mike Gandy, Roosevelt Williams, Terrance Metcalf, Lance Briggs, Bernard Berrian, Dusty Dvorchek, Garrett Wolfe, Michael Okwo, Earl Bennett, Marcus Harrison, Jarron Gilbert, Juaquin Iglesius)
Other notables: Alex Brown(4th), Bobby Wade(5th), Justin Gage(5th), Nathan Vasher(4th), Kyle Orton(4th), Chris Harris(6th), Jamar Williams(4th), Mark Anderson(5th), Zach Bowman(5th), Johnny Knox(5th), Al Afalava(6th).
I believe the biggest problem in Chicago has been developing talent and coaching....lots of players making a difference after they leave Chicago.
