Did Sammy's foot ever heal correctly? IIRC he was never quite right even when he came back

He had another surgery done on it in January - http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2017/01/20/sammy-watkins-has-second-foot-surgery/

He needs to take a season off and let it heal, but that's never going to happen

He's been solid for the most part, but he had a really good season and is cashing in on it so you might expect some regression

Solid is a huge upgrade over dumpster fire, which is what our secondary currently looks like.

$19 million guaranteed is great, if $15 is guaranteed for this season. I still need to see the specifics, but if all the guarantees are front loaded, it's a decent signing to get a guy you are high on and push out the competition.

I mean, I am not excited for Glennon, but I can see the logic of the deal.

He had a second surgery done on January 20. He should be ready for training camp but it's too early to tell if there'll be any lingering effects.

QB money is absolutely stupid. The more I think about, the less angry I am about the Glennon signing assuming two things:
1) They don't act as if they have solved their quarterback problem. They absolutely need to treat the position as a need in the draft.
2) This doesn't effect their ability to sign priority free agents over the life of the deal. The Bears have a lot of cap space, so this will hopefully not be a concern like it is for the Texans with Osweiler's contract.

While it is crazy to think that Mike Glennon is making 15 million, its not my money, and as long as it doesn't impact the Bears QB decision making or FA flexibility I shouldn't really give a poo poo.

Andrew Luck's $24 million a year contract doesn't seem so stupid now. Still pretty dumb but not Mike Glennon dumb, holy crap.

Curtis Painter was born in the wrong year, he'd probably make at least $10 million a year nowadays.

Correct, but I'm assuming it's affecting the Texans' approach to free agency this year due to their cap space.

Finally! Someone sees it my way. Schefter is reporting $19 million guaranteed. If most of that is in the first year, they could realistically cut him with no long term ramifications. Any other talking point is just white noise. Wait to see the structure, than freak the gently caress out.

Yeah, but I have to admit my knee jerk reaction was despair and anger. Just seeing "Bears get rid of Jay Cutler, sign Mike Glennon for $15 million per" raises my blood pressure.

It is, but QB money doesn't make any sense and as long it doesn't effect their long term plan at the position or limit their cap flexibility, why should I care?

Now that Bouye is gone (I'm assuming to the Titans) I hope his breakout was a mirage that resulted from Clowney and Mercilus having big seasons, J Jo shadowing the #1 for other teams, and Romeo having really good schemes that hid any of his weaknesses. He gets his payday and we don't get burned by having to face him twice a year

In reality I'm sure he'll be a top 10ish CB in the league for years to come

And if the contract is structured the way I hope, that's how many passes he will throw as a Bear due to being benched and cut in favor of someone better before the end of year 2.

The pass most likely would have been caught had Butler not jumped the route--if it had been, Pete Carroll would have been a genius rather than a goat.
