REPORT: Orlando Pace To Chicago

Found April 06, 2009 on Blog Down Chicago Bears:
PLAYERS: Orlando Pace,  Chris Williams

Pace will play left tackle, moving last year’s first-round pick, Chris Williams, to right. The move, quite possibly, makes drafting a tackle this year [...]

Bears Wake Up

Via Vikings Gab  |  April 06, 2009
After what has been a very uneventful offseason in Chicago, the Bears have put thrown down the gauntlet in regards to the upcoming season. Soon after trading for Jay Cutler, they also signed free agent Orlando Pace. Pace is expected to be an improvement to the Bears offensive line, whether it be on [...]

Torry Holt to Chicago?

Via DraftNation  |  April 06, 2009
Now that the Bears have landed Pro Bowl QB Jay Cutler and seven time Pro Bowl tackle Orlando Pace, a Chicago Tribune writer thinks it's time to sign free agent WR Torry Holt.  At the moment, Cutler's number one target remains converted defensive back Devin Hester, so wide receiver is a need for the team, either through free agency or the draft.  For what it'...

Via Bear Goggles  |  April 06, 2009
Brad Biggs is reporting that the Bears have also landed free agent left tackle and former Pro Bowler Orlando Pace.   Pace’s best days might be behind him, but he’s got to be an upgrade over John St. Clair, don’t ya think?  Plenty more on both of the Bears moves to come.

Cutlermania Continues to Grip Chicago

Via Bear Goggles  |  April 06, 2009
If a picture is worth a thousand words, the smile on Jerry Angelo’s face says it all.  By the way, Jerry must have a tanning bed in the war room, because he is awfully tan for someone who is supposed to be hunkered down planning for the draft. I am actually thinking about changing the name of the blog to All Things Jay Cutler.  In the meantime, here is an excerpt of the Chicago...

BREAKING: Chicago Bears Acquire Jay Cutler

Via The Biz of Football  |  April 06, 2009

Da Bears & Other Stuff

Via Ebony Bird  |  April 06, 2009
So today, as you’ve probably heard by now, the Bears acquired both Jay Cutler and Orlando Pace.  Time for a new poll question.  I’m not sure what to think about them signing Pace yet, as I would love having his talent and experience, but he is expensive and injury prone.  Time wil tell. The other former Rams star that the Ravens were targeting was Torry Holt, to bolster...

Yes and Nos on L'Affaire Cutler

(I have to be brief on this one today; too much going on outside of the blog. Yes, I suck.)Yes, the QB is a pouting whiner who should have gotten over it.No, Chicago Fan will not hold that against him. Seriously, after the QBs that franchise had had, Cutler could come out of the huddle wearing wings and a fluffy tail and they'd eat it up.Yes, Coach Idiot McDaniels is on the shortest...
