March 9, 2017: ABC

All this talk about the next Bears QB…  Cutler, Hoyer, Barkley from last year.  Jimmy G, draft picks, and now, Mike Glennon for next year.  I’ve read and heard many opinions, and you guessed it; I have one too.  It’s simple for me… actually, it’s as simple as ABC:  Anybody But Cutler.

I was hoping to get Jimmy G.  I didn’t want to trade our first round pick for him, but I was OK with the 2nd round pick.  And now, New England is saying they are not trading him.  OK, fine.  Who knows what the hell to believe from those cheaters & liars… that’s the Patriot Way.  We’ll see when the dust settles, but for now, we’re moving on.

Drafting a QB is an absolutely splendid idea.  It’s something we should have done in any one of the last couple years… and not in one of the final rounds.  We had our chance to draft a QB and begin to groom him for years now.  We chose not to.  Now, we find ourselves with the #3 pick in the draft… in a draft where these is no absolute stud QB… and a draft where one or both of the teams ahead of us could take a QB.  Just perfect.  It’s just like the Bears to be screwed when it comes to QBs.  After all, that is our history.

So now the leader in the clubhouse, with a deal about to be official, is Mike Glennon.  Yeah, he’s not an all-pro QB, but last I checked, there aren’t any of those lying around to be signed.  Is he our QB of the future?  Doubtful, but why not take a chance on him?  Although the money we’re going to spend on him is NOT extreme, we probably could have got Hoyer for cheaper.  If we were only looking for what everybody is calling a “bridge QB”, then why not Hoyer?

Well, Glennon has more upside I think.  What if he wows us this year?  The deal has most of the guaranteed money in the first year, so if he doesn’t, and we choose to move on, it will be painless.  Yes, it will be frustrating, but painless… unlike some other deals we’ve been in.  Deals that put us behind a couple years in this process.  Deals that kept a certain somebody around for 2 more wasteful years… the first 2 years of the Pace-Fox era.  Don’t think there is that much to complain about when it comes to the money portion of this.

Yeah, I won’t run out and grab my son a Glennon jersey, that’s for sure.  He’s just a guy.  He’s exactly what we’re used to at that position.  And this is the problem with the Bears… going with “just a guy” at the QB position.  I’m hoping we still draft a QB.  With this signing, there’s less pressure to take a guy at 3.  Go defense, and then get our guy with our 2nd round pick, or… trade up later in the first round to grab one of those QBs who have slipped.  We still have options here.

So, I’m not going to jump out of the window just yet.  After all, and most importantly, Matt Barkley is gone; he signed with San Francisco too, just like Hoyer.  Of course I’m kidding.  The most important part about this day was the other news… about a certain #6.  This release allows me to do something I’ve been waiting to do for a long time.  That is next.

    Mike Glennon, welcome to the Chicago Bears! How did this happen? Well, the Bears obviously needed a qb. Bye bye hoyer, cutler, and barkley. Did the Bears overpay for Glennon? Probably. 3 years for 45 million, but only 19 million guaranteed. 1 year bust and back to the drawing board. If he works out, so be it. Is he the qb of the future for the Bears? Probably not, so the Bears should still plan on drafting one and grooming for the future. In the meantime, Glennon is the guy…he is 6’6″ and has 21 career games, 18 starts, 4100 yards, 30 tds with 15 ints. Not too bad playing for the bucs. Not to mention that he has been sacked 56 times, which shows he can take a beating and get back up. He should have a leg up on any rookie qb and if given some help, howard at rb and wrs tbd, he should get the job done. What does that mean? An improvement on last year and hopefully a spot in the playoffs. BEAR DOWN!!!
