Doesn't bode well for Clutts.

Especially when they're running a first-team and a second-team h-back. You can pencil in Davis/Adams and Spaeth/Rodriguez as the combos. It basically would come down to a 4th TE or a FB in late August.
Clutts could make the team if he really dominates on special teams. He has added value as a backup long snapper (did he have any bad snaps last year?) and I thought he was the "upback" punt protector before that. But with his job essentially being outsourced, it will be an uphill battle. |

I'm rooting for him too, but I don't see that we would invite him in. Lots of teams seem interested to see what he can do, I do hope he catches on with one of them.

Just watched the ESPN sportscenter special on the NFCNorth. Bears not getting much love. Seems like the whole show was about the packers and the lions. Both Bill Polian and Cris Carter picked the bears finishing 3rd in the division behind the packers and lions.
The key this year is staying healthy. If we can do that, I think we have a legitimate shot at winning the division. I hope we prove everyone wrong and I think we are immensely better than the Lions when fully healthy.
A quarterback with injury problems, no elite running back, essentially only one valuable WR other than maybe TITUS YOUNG, an above average line backing core, and a horrible secondary.
The lack of respect for the bears frustrates me.

All is not well in Minny...

| Quote: | Percy Harvin's situation in Minnesota is getting uglier by the day.
The fourth-year receiver has requested a trade from the Vikings, NFL.com's Ian Rapoport confirmed Wednesday. This follows a day during which Harvin hinted about multiple "problems" with the Vikings.
"I'll just put it this way -- it's a lot of different things that have to be sorted out," Harvin said. "Just haven't been real happy lately. So, we've got a couple things to work on. I'm here in the classroom, so we'll go from here." |

He could be great at Miami. Or being the number two for Andre Johnson. |

Miami were the team I was thinking could be his best fit...after trading Marshall to us they have both a need and the firepower to make a trade happen...plus I would guess he would be much happier moving back to Florida…only sticking point could be what kind of new contract he would be looking for. |

Miami is a good fit. Buffalo could use him just as much across from Stevie Johnson too.

| The thing is, the draft has already passed, and Harvin isn't making much this year. Even if they wanted to trade Harvin, it only makes sense to do so after the season, unless they think he's going to be a total cancer. |
