According to NFL analyst Benjamin Allbright, two sources in Chicago say that the team has running back Matt Forte on the trading block.

For what its worth two contacts in Chicago have said Matt Forte is on the block…Jeffrey isn't.

Is Chicago cleaning house?

Will Sutton is on the Bears. He looked like a Dockett replacement coming out of ASU.


Pernell McPhee is the guy we want.

That's the guys Gresham took a swing at for diving at Palmer low. No way. Super expensive by the way.

McPhees not productive enough IMO to trade for no thanks! If it's a 7th I'd do it but that's all

if cardinals were trying to trade for players they would have went after Jared Allen.

Players from the same team fight each other during training camp. The Cardinals would not let that one incident sway them from an OLB of his caliber. He rated out as the 2nd best OLB last year and is very young. He would make this defense a dominant defense. Only Justin Houston has graded out better than him. He is a pure pass rushing LB which is what we need most

@PFF
Pernell McPhee's +26.0 overall grade was 2nd to only Justin Houston at 3-4 outside linebacker

Those numbers mean nada IMO. His production on the field hasn't justified his pay or play.

So you think he's a top 5 OLBer? Lol
McPhee isn't in Houston or Millers class

Negative. Allen gave the Bears a list of successful teams running 4-3 defense and then allowed them to arrange trade. Cards would not have been on that list.

Not to mention that is the reason they are trading him. They found out he's no Peppers when it come to making that transition. He is not an OSLB and a way better fit in a 4-3.

My apologies master, I didn't realize I wasn't allowed to post on here. Is there anything else you need me to do? I apologize if my post was that offensive to you

are you a hawks fan or something? I dont understand why he would reply to you like that especially based on you just providing information.

this guy posts on the seahawks forum and trolls there. When they tell him to go back to the cards board he replies " they are all homers, I come here to the hawks board for real discussion."

So-- go back there and discuss real football then, ringless.

And I guess you also post on the seahawk board too since you know all of this?

IMO, the post you responded to, was a good post with good information. Do you just have a grudge against him so you feel the need to be rude to him any time he posts?

I dont troll over there at all. I'm actually a well respected member of the board over there. I create weekly posts on the rest of the NFC west that a lot of people participate with.

I have said which is true that I feel our defense is not as good as people think. I have said that Peterson was not as good as people think and yes he is proving me wrong this year. But I have been blasted for not drinking the coolaid. I am guilty of looking for the weak link in our team because I am snake bitten as a fan of this team from so many promising years. Which I explained on that board to them. I like more insightful posts that are filled more with analysis over opinion.

Is there a degree of irony that the Bears traded Allen to the Panthers?

If Forte is traded I would bet a $1.00 the team would be the Patriots.

It seems like the Pats typically don't trade picks for players. They'll pick them up when they're FA's, and trade their aging players for picks.

So he's like you on this board? All you seem to do is troll. RINGLESS has done nothing wrong yet you tell him to go back to a rivals board he trolls on (supposedly).

McPhee was signed by the Bears this offseason because he fit their 3-4 defense....they aren't trading him.

I could see the Ravens taking a flier on Forte. Titans or Jets as well. Honestly, the Panthers probably need him the most.
