Yeah, I thought he'd probably get too much from someone.

For maybe 4M, there's no excuse not to bring him in as a hedge. But at 7, no thanks.

Damn. That’s more than I thought he’d get. Still wish he would have finished his career as a Bear.

Ouch. What's one of the younger more premium guys going to fetch? Probably be out of the Bears' salary range.

he fills a need for Seattle and they could afford to perhaps overpay to get what they needed ... would have been nice for him to come back to Chicago, and the Bears certainly have the need ... the $$$ are what kept that from happening
