The guy sucked plain and simple. I believe Brian Griese should be released as well. Griese saw a good amount of playing time last season and his play solidified the fact that he's a backup quarterback and will never be a long term solution at the position for any team. It makes no sense to keep paying him the money he's getting under those circumstances. While nothing is official, it's quietly being said that Ruben Brown won't be brought back. Brown has turned in some decent seasons with the Bears but at 35 and coming off an injury, I think it's time to replace him. I am also wondering how the hell Archuleta didn’t get cut.

He seemed like a good guy on and off the field. He brought veteran leadership and class to the team. Although (like you said) his big-play potential never fully materialized, he did have some clutch catches for us over the past few years. He was a big, strong, gritty receiver, and I enjoyed watching him play for the Bears. Hopefully he'll get the opportunity to keep playing football somewhere else. But with the Berrian situation looming...I am worried. I hope Angelo & Company have a master plan to actually IMPROVE this offense... I understand why they released Moose, but I hate to see him go.
