[CBFF] Injuries taking toll at wideout

[Phil DeNomme]

If it was that easy, why not just sign Edgerin James, Terrell Owens and Drew
Brees.  Might as well.  The way you put it, it's as easy as pie.

Wasn't Lloyd obtained via a trade?  

Corey Bradford?  Who?  

Davis?  Tell me, which one of his ONE TDs last year impressed you the most?

Johnson?  Don't we have him in Moose already?

Bryant would probably have been the only viable YOUNG option of the ones you
listed. But it takes 2 to tango.  It's not like a video game where you can
go out and get everyone you want and throw money around like it was water.  

Also, would you have rather JA go out and sign all these guys or have money
to resign some of the young talented players on the team like Briggs and
Vasher?  I guess you want both, huh?  In the world of no cap and endless
cash flow, that might be possible.

Why couldn't the Bears have done both?  Why not upgrade the defensive
backs and the receivers?  JA did the right thing passing on Randle El.
 But then he just dropped the issue.  There were tons of other free
agent WRs.  David Givens.  Keyshawn Johnson.  Brandon Lloyd.  Antonio
Bryant.  Joe Jurevicius.  Corey Bradford.  Andre' Davis.  Plus many,
many more.  Are any of them Bears?  Nope.
