With Perry off the market, about the only OLB left in free agency under the age of 30 that are better (perhaps) than NFL average are:

Jarvis Jones, PIT
Alex Okafor, ARI
Jabaal Sheard, NE
John Simon, HOU

Of them, I prefer Simon because he is more of an [EDGE] kind of guy in that he can do all the jobs and not just be a pass rusher like Sheard.

I am not a fan at this point of either Jones or Okafor. They are not worth the money they are going to end up getting.

Cheers,

I hope we make push for Warford and Sheard. Warford is expected to make 8 million per which isnt too bad.

I seen Sheard play a little, I like his motor.

Suring up the oline and front seven wont get any complaints from me.

The #Colts and the #Eagles are making a strong push to sign WR Alshon Jeffery, source said. Talks are continuing with the #Bears

THE FUCK BALLARD?

I know it's early, but Ballard isnt doing anything to make me like him more than Grigson, and that's awful of me to say that, I think I just threw up.

I'm willing to wait until guys actually ink their contracts. It's POSSIBLE that part of Ballard's strategy is just to leak ridiculous things in order to try to game the market. It's possible that agents are just taking advantage of the fact that the Colts have an unknown at GM and their leaking their name all the time just to try to gin up business.

All of that's possible, but I will say I'm less confident than I thought I'd be heading into 4 pm.

This would horrible. Jeffery is always f**king hurt.

If we sign Jeffery, then we might as well trade Dorsett and try and get a 3rd rounder.

Nice spin on things.

Doubt it.

Brad Biggs ✔ ‎@BradBiggs Other teams believe #Bears are at $13 million per year for WR Alshon Jeffery with an offer. Negotiating tactic or real numbers? Who knows?
If Ballard is willing to pay this to a WR when we already have Hilton, Moncrief, Dorsett and Rogers on the roster, I don't know what to think.

Passing offense was NOT the problem with our team last year.

I......don't have words if this was a serious report.

Cheers,

Would Dorsett fetch more value than Dwayne Allen?

I wonder if Dorsett could be used as a sweetener to move down in the Draft. Our #15 overall pick and Dorsett gets us to...#9?
