Bears new signings (PS too) & trades

So the #Bears add two former #Lions in DL CJ Wilson and RB Joique Bell while cutting TE Greg Scruggs and LB Jonathan Anderson. Minor moves.

Just read this from my Facebook feed care of bear backer

Looks like the Tresty and Tucker show when they were bringing in any street FA who could count to three.

Do I understand that you want to trade Cutler for only a single 4th round pick? If so you won't get my vote for GM either.  Philly got a 1st and a 4th for f'ing Sam Bradford for cryin' out loud.  I also doubt Miami would trade a young QB like Tannehill whose not all bad and three games is not enough to make any kind of judgement as to whether or not they work well as HC and QB.

Cutler probably won't interest him all that much unless Gase believe he can save his bacon in Miami better than Tannehill and then why wouldn't you just swap QBs?  He hasn't won as much as Cutler has but his personal stats are as good or better also playing on some poor teams and he has a very hot wife too.

 I would hope so too because for that little with his contract we'd be far better off to keep 'til we knew we had better or at least some reasonable certainty of it.

I think we have to wait for the season to finish before we can tell how well the fusion of Gase and Tannehill works out.  That was one game against a very good D.  In the two previous games he threw for over 300 yards in each, his passer rating was over 90, and they scored 54 points.  It was two tough D's with Seattle and Cincy they had problems with.  That's still FAR better than we've been doing.

I don't know that Cutler would ever command a 1st round pick any longer but he's worth far more than a single 4th and in a tight spot or not Minny still could have said no.  I think this way the feel it will be very low picks in each of those rounds whereas if the Bears give up a 1st in trade for anyone it will be a high pick.

So, the same factors probably come into play if they trade Cutler.  It all depends on the trading partner, how badly they want him, and where they pick.  He's still a better option than many teams have but his bad press may suppress his value too.  Who knows?
