Report: Brandon Marshall traded to the Bears

[MrBill]

This would be a good pickup for the Bears if it is true. They are in dire need of some additional help at that position.

@JayGlazer Major scoopage! The Chicago Bears have agreed to terms of a trade w Miami for pro bowl WR Brandon Marshall in exchange for 2 third-rounders.

@AdamSchefter Filed to ESPN: Dolphins trade WR Brandon Marshall to Bears for 3rd-round pick in 2012 and 3rd-round pick in 2013. Marshall rejoins Cutler.

Phil Emery FTW

[Chrispy]

WOW, reunites with Cutler

[The Buddha]

Two 3rds? What the fuck

[f16harm]

true.

Miami is getting rid of him and his contract for a reason ;)

Honestly, he's done nothing spectacular in Miami other than drop balls. Don't be fooled by his catch count and yards.

Making room for Wayne

Peyton, Wayne and Clark.....

What the Bears actually went after and got a real WR? GTFO!

Maybe they'll end up trading him for a DT or a FS soon. Give it time.

But seriously, really good move especially for 2 third-rounders. Now if they go after Mario Williams they could end up with a REALLY successful offseason.

Just wait til you see



Can't wait for Floyd and Marshall

[Primetime]

Still looking at Floyd?

Marshall, Floyd, Knox would be very dangerous.

and? Nnamdi was beat all year by less than Marshall

[Warner2BruceTD]

Not sure why people are thinking two 3rd's isn't a good return.

That's great value. Santonio Holmes and Brandon Lloyd were acquired for 5th rounders.

Dolphins did well here. So did the Bears, but personally I have never liked Marshall. He has shaky hands, and always gets dumb penalties at the worst time. He's a nutjob.

NFL drop leaders from last season:

Roddy White
Dwayne Bowe
Greg Little
Brandon Marshall

Drop issues or not I'd gladly take any of these guys. Hakeem Nicks, Victor Cruz, Steve Smith, Boldin, Desean Jackson were also in the top 10 as well.

Yawn about his drops. I'm sure he will have some that make me pull my hair out but whatever.
