CPstretch Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 what are the bears thinking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genghis Khan Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 so that leaves the bears with Cedric Benson? I don't think they should have traded Jones I think he was the better RB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OWUeagleMD Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Seems like they could get a bit more than that. I guess they know Jones' value more than I do though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farbod21 Posted March 6, 2007 Author Share Posted March 6, 2007 I really dont know... Jones was the best player on a horrid Chicago offense... To give him up for merely moving up 16 spots in the 2nd round is very questionable... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skins84 Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Thomas Jones and Leon Washington. Good backfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drex Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 The jets get Thomas jones and swap 2nd rounders with the Bears? I bet Bears fans are distraught! Good move by the jets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spanky731 Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 http://www.f-forge.com/?d=TMLY2uO67gaQAXDGZtRyRelevant becuase this silences and remainingof Betts for vilma chatter. Maybe that chatter was still going only in my head Vilma wuda been a great addition and a guy we cud probably plug in for about a decase and not two years like LFB but i guess thats just a wuda cuda shuda thing now.

twenty-eight Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Yup. And with the Broncos signing Henry, this should end all the betts trade talk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merlin Emrys Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 It's nice to see another team give away too much in a trade. The bears should have been able to give up Jones alone for that one draft pick. Way to go Jets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twenty-eight Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 a matter of time....they have invested a big chunk of money in benson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. S Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Thomas Jones proved he's worth a 2nd straight up, why did they give another 2nd? That just seems very...Redskinsesque. They did need a RB, though I thought Leon Washington and Cedric Houston were starting to do alright, and Curtis Martin was returning, who could do well again.

Spanky731 Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 not necessarily wrong forum because this does effect us in all the trade talks with betts and vilma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSilverMaC Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Very nice pickup for the jets. Guess that means no more Vilma for Betts threads. :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@DCGoldPants Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Wrong forum, but while I'm paying attention. I don't get this at all. The Bears know Benson isn't a proven running. So, what's going to happen now? They sign Jamal Lewis? Kevan Barlow? to do the tandem thing with Benson? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
