I hope Kwesi is working the phones hard today.

All the smoke is around a wr, not D

Not saying I agree with that either. I think this D needs to get better to win a playoff game. 

Agree that we have a ton of salary in Hunter and Kendricks and they are not thriving in this system. 

@"TBro" said: We need to add another impact player on Defense. I know we have less than a Million in Cap space, but Brez is pretty good with making some magic happen with the money. 

Kendricks and Hunter are tying up a lot of cap space for very little impact on the field. Hunter was a little better yesterday, especially
when he had his hand in the turf, but both of them look completely uncomfortable in this scheme. That stupid non-tackle by Kendricks
yesterday is inexcusable. 

With Tomlinson going out of the game with an injury is really going to test the depth along the defensive line.  It was really thin going into the game but now it is even worse unless Dalvin's injury is minor.  Not sure why the interest in a receiver is making the rounds but this defense needs reinforcements.

DL/CB and maybe a G before a WR

We might do a small time pick up/trade but I don't expect anything big.  We are light on next years picks to trade with.

Well now ISJ is hurt again so who knows if we do anything today.

read that trade chatter maybe just that, teams are asking for way too much, we shall see…

Some teams are working them today

Bears trade Roquan Smith to Ravens

The linebacker conducted a “hold-in” at
the start of the season after he and new general manager Ryan Poles
couldn’t hammer out a contract extension. He then demanded a trade,
issuing a public statement that said the first-year GM was not
negotiating in good faith

Wow!

Honestly I hope we stay put. All year weve talked about the complexities of our offense and defense. Why bring someone new into the fold half way through the season. It makes little sense.

I don't think anything is going to happen. It'll be too rich from a contract perspective for the team.

I didn't expect a TE trade, but getting Hockenson to add to this offense is pretty exciting. I guess we will just have to outscore everyone.

You gotta love this division.  The Bears traded away Quinn and Smith along with their contracts, then out bided the Packers for Claypool...Green Bay, Chicago and Detroit are receding while Minnesota is ascending.   
They seemed to be destined to cutting their own throats, which is fine by me.
