Vick coming back after a 3 year hiatus and the team that would be ballsy enough (or have that shitty of a QB roster) to take him.

I bet the Bears will still need a new QB. But I'd be willing to put money on him ending up in Oakland.

Guess it depends on the draft from now until then. You don't think Oakland will pick up Tebow next year? Miami?

Didn't they pick a QB last draft?

Miami? I think they passed up Brady Quinn for some wide receiver and traded out for Culpepper. Right?

Unless you meant Oakland. Yeah, they took Jemarcaus Russell (I think his name was) from LSU.

I think Tebow will stay in Florida. I'd love to see him got to Miami and see them turn around. Pardon, I live in FL.

Yeah, I was talking about Oakland. I don't think Tebow is going to leave this year, and if he did I don't think he'd be the #1 pick. On a different note, the problem with the Bears is they're always trying to make their team better through draft players, which is ok except that you've got a team that has a really small window to get back to form, so you can't really spend two or three years trying to get better, you have to trade to get better immediately or you've got to find some great free agents. Brian Urlacher anchors that defense, but how many more years does he have at the peak of his career? They need to pursue Donovan McNabb and get a really good backup running back, someone like Chester Taylor of Minnesota.

McNabb huh? Interesting. As physical as Urlacher is, and after his injury last night (and doesn't he have bad arthritis?) I don't see him being the key player that he is, or even remaining in the league, too much longer.

I've felt the same way a feew years back about Atlanta when they were on a wide receiver spree to have someone for Vick to throw to. Next thing you know they're letting TJ Duckett go. I respect coaches/owners for doing what they do, but sometimes they make you wonder.

Back up running back like Marion Barber? He's a restrict-free agent after this season.. Chester Taylor is a good pickup too. But what the Bears need is a quarterback...

Wonder if Brady Quinn is on his way out of Cleveland since Anderson has turned out to be a gem. Big names will shuffle this year, Briggs will be out of the midway, Asante will leave NE, Dallas Clark might be on his way out since the colts can franchise tag either him or Bob Sanders.

Just a few off the top of my head.
