QB - Grossman RB - A. Thomas / T. Jones WR - Booker WR - Terrell TE - D. Clark What kind of impact will these guys make on the fantasy world? Do you think that this a reasonable estimation of the 2004 Depth Chart? Can Grossman make the difference and put Chicago back on the map?
I think it will depend strongly on what REX does on the field. It will also depend on how quickly everyone learns the new offence and defence that we put in. I also have seen where OGUNLEYE's agent thinks that sometime this week before the draft starts that the BEARS will offer something for him but the BEARS have said that they will not give up a #1 pick. It is said that they offered a #2, GIBSON, and a conditional pick next year but they didn't like that offer so we will see. ""
I think Rex is definitely the key. A-train will pull it together. The receivers are quality. Coaching will have a big part of it, but how Grossman responds will be the determining factor. He should be a late round steal, great for keeper leagues.
There was rumor that the PHINES were trying to trade OGUNLEYE for THOMAS, which is not happening so don't worry, but why? Is there a RB problem with RICKY or just preping for a backup?
Ricky while he is young, probably wont last past 30 just because of the pounding he takes. He is a tough physical runner, and carried quite the load even in college. That is probably what they are thinking, that or they just want a back who doesnt fumble.
I think grossman will put up average numbers(which is AWESOME as far as bears qb's go) somewhere around 3000 yds and 20 tds 20 ints. If he doesnt make mistakes and keeps the ints down around 10(which is possible, but not probably) i think the bears will do real well. However as a fantasy pickup i would wait till later rounds, should be 2nd or 3rd qb you take.
I guess you can never have too many options at running back. Just ask the Bills about Henry & Mcgahee.
I gave mine on the "Kurt Warner" thread. I think there will be 11 teams intereste ranging from mildly to very. It should be interesting to see where he ends up and what he will do with the opportunity.
i hope bears dont go after him, because if grossman ends up being best option, than mrs. warner is a bit of a malcontent.
Any truth to the rumor that Chicago is shopping Terrell? Who would the top 3 receivers in Chicago be if they traded David?
