Thread: Brandon Marshall to Bears

2012 NFL free agency -- Miami Dolphins trade Brandon Marshall to Chicago Bears, sources say - ESPN Chicago

Should the Vikings "counter" by signing Vincent Jackson?

That's a shocker. Really sucks for the Vikings. I was really hoping we would crawl out of the cellar and into third this season, this makes the Bears offense much better. 5 straight thousand yard season, and he's only 27. A real steal for the Bears.
More than ever I'm convinced the Vikings need to rebuild, even if it means trading good players for future picks.

Trade proven players for unproven players? Interesting concept.

It really is over for this team for 5 more years.

That is exactly how a team rebuilds. We're not winning a superbowl with Peterson, Allen and Harvin. We MIGHT win a superbowl with Harvin and four great stud pickups, 7 good solid starters in the next 3 years of drafting.

I dont agree at all. Sure Peterson is up in the air on how well he can perform after the injury, but I dont see how you can get rid of Allen when he is a must have in this division.

Maybe I dont see our team as bad as many do. The first four games of the season last year did us in. With a better offensive line, secondary and a good outside wr we could be a good team, all of which could be drafted and maybe a couple through free agency this season. A good draft this year is huge for this team.


The qb/reciever combos is this division is nuts now with Marshall with the bears.

I have been in favor of trading AP for the last 3 years. Aside from jersey sales and a couple extra wins a year, he's not worth the bounty we could receive for him (prior to his injury). Now we are stuck with the highest paid RB in the history of the league for 7 years who is coming back from a torn ACL. We could have easily traded him for an above average RB and a 1st and 2nd and maybe an extra 2nd the year after, and we have a lot of holes to fill.

So now the Vikings have to defend the tandem of Cutler/Marshall, Stafford/Megatron, and Rodgers/ GB WR crew a total of 6 times a year with this lousy ass defense? That is a guaranteed 6 losses right there. Bears, Lions, and Packers have a really good chance at putting up record numbers against this swiss cheese defense. I am actually embarrassed to live in Green Bay and call myself a Viking fan. Unreal.
