    Article from Bears website on Briggs

    The Official Website of the Chicago Bears - The charter franchise of the National Football League


    Conclusion...Briggs will not be in Chicago in 2007.

    Does Buffalo have the ammo to pull off the trade? Will giving up the #12 pick be enough and do we have enough money to sign him long term? Clumpy this is where you chime in!

    Briggs has already turned down a 7 year $33 mill deal with Chicago last season. I could see a 7 year $35 mill with a $12 mill signing bonus for Briggs.
    If we sign a LB with the #12 pick I think it should be less than this but we cannot expect the experience that Briggs brings either.

    I can't see anything less than dealing our #12 for Briggs straight up. I don't think that swapping first rounders and adding one of our thirds would even get it done.

    What to do, what to do?
    Where else would you rather be than right here right now?

      You're the only one that keeps answering to any of my Lance Briggs threads Tatonka...are you torturing yourself too?

      I'll call it quits and start thinking about Pat Willis if you do too??? lol

            Yeah, but you know about that whole cash to cap thing! Will that mean we might overspend and spread it out a bit for that SPECIAL player? Breaking the rules?
