Jerry Angelo hasn't shown me that he can properly evaluate player talent. Let's look at history: Since coming to the Bears in 2001, the Bears have made 9 first-round draft picks. Of those 9, 2 are still with the team: Chris Williams Gabe Carimi Neither have been elected to the Pro Bowl yet. Looking back the the Green Bay Packers first-round draft picks, 6 of their 11 first-round draft picks are still with the team: Aaron Rodgers AJ Hawk Clay Matthews BJ Raji Bryan Bulaga Derek Sherrod 5 of those 6 are starters and 2 of those 5 are Pro Bowlers. Of the 11 New England Patriots first round draft picks since 2001, 5 of them are still with the team and 4 of those 5 are Pro Bowlers. THAT is proper player talent evaluation.

I was thinking the same thing about Cutler. I feel bad for the guy, and I will be shocked if he actually makes it through the entire season. Hate to say it this early in the year, but I think this is a must-win game against Carolina. Good post Roy, great points. I was thinking the same thing about Cutler.
