Bear rumors and innuendos

I'll shit myself...in a good way...if thats possible! lol

I think I would prefer to have Sitton play center. Whitehair needs to be tested at LG, to see if he is our future.
I really hope Pace goes for this guy, have the cap if I my memory doesn't fail me.

How stupid does the Slauson cut look like now... Pace so far doesn't seem to have made a lot of boneheaded mistakes, but that one will nag us for a long time.. unless Ted Larsen and Whitehair plays out of their mind... let's hope!

The Chicago Bears are the first team veteran guard Josh Sitton will visit with per Adam Schefter:

Looks like former Packers' Pro Bowl G Josh Sitton's first visit will be to...division-rival Chicago Bears, per sources. Saints could follow


Regarding the 'boneheadedness' of Pace's release of Slauson, most on the board feel strongly it was the wrong move. It was Pace's move to make though. Pace with input from the coaching staff did not feel that Slauson was a good fit for their shift into a zone blocking scheme. His movement skills and ability to block in space were limited which would affect how The Log could run his offense. At the time of his release, Pace had veteran Manny Ramirez and Hroniss Grasu on the roster. I think in hindsight the move seems boneheaded at the time the move was frustrating BUT it was clear a plan was in place. 

With that said, I don't think Pace will have any issues bringing in and signing Sitton if he can ink him to a good deal. One of the issues will be the recent signing of Kyle Long for 10 million a year. Pace basically set a negotiation point for Sitton and his agent as both Long and Sitton are 3x Pro-Bowl guards. Might be hard to ink him to a deal though the fact they are bringing him in AND the fact he came here first bodes well for the team.
