Great article Brian! Dave, seems like we’re both hung up on the fact that Kellen Davis SHOULD be a dominant tight end. I am as bummed as you are that he isn’t. But I’m afraid he’s proven that he just can’t/won’t be.

The tag on Melton will restrict us a bit… Look for cuts in the near future.

I can’t see the Bears making any big splashes in Free Agency with the cap space we have and surely any good players in FA will be looking for big bucks. If we tag Melton doesn’t that then give us ‘only’ around $3 million to play with. I have a hunch Urlacher will be back all be it on a reduced wage but that will chip a bit more off the cap space.

There is a lot of talk about drafting a tight end that can catch but I’d like to see Emery go for O-line O-line O-line in the draft. Is there no love for Davis in Chicago to give him another chance????

I gave the Bears a pass on not upgrading the Offensive Line last year because I didn’t really think there were many options out there to actually upgrade the line. This year does look different. I would LOVE Clady (Broncos Midwest!) but it seems impossible that Denver wouldn’t franchise him. But Albert or Long would be good choices, if they didn’t break the bank.

I’m more worried about going through the draft. I’m not certain how much turnover there’s been in the scouting department, but I had lost all faith in the previous regime’s ability to judge O-Line talent in the draft. Time will tell if Emery can improve on that.
