At 5 million?

Yes.

Depends on what the guaranteed money is and roster bonus.

He might not even make the team.

Already 34 TC retiree yuck.

Yes, that's very true.. I'm wondering is brown the highest paid lineman we have? Pretty much got Andrews resigned for pennies compared to what the market is today.. in my opinion Andrews is an all-pro..

Andrews is a bull @ center... he's just been injured and age... bad combination... I see we can pick one up in draft I'm certain of..

I’m not sure why we haven’t done this more often since Brian Waters way when.

A veteran adult in the room kinda guy on the line goes a long way to stabilizing a line. He isn’t what he used to be, but clearly seems to still be solid.

That clip reminds me of how many times Trent Brown cut block or whatever it’s called for no reason and completely whiffed.

The cut block you see in the clip is called because the play calls for a quick release by the QB and is designed to get the rusher's hands down to eliminate the possible blocked pass. When the QB for whatever reason holds on to the ball, OT's get to look foolish.

Guess we can tell Tyquan Thornton there’s no need for him to “ bulk up” now….

 

[RobertWeathers]

Yes, that's very true.. I'm wondering is brown the highest paid lineman we have?

Yes but hes cheap this year and still reasonable next year at $12m

Pretty much got Andrews resigned for pennies compared to what the market is today.. in my opinion Andrews is an all-pro..

Not sure hes an All-Pro but hes more than solid. He makes the line better.

This twaddle-fluff tells me Absolutely ****ing Nothing about this old dude's ability to still play the position at at least a league-average starter's level... But maybe that's what da Bears FO man was saying, without actually saying it...

 

[captain stone]

There goes $5M down the ****ing toilet.

 

[captain stone]

That's not good, folks.

Dude's cooked.

Waste of ****ing time on somebody who could've Easily been signed AFTER the draft for the Vet ****ing Minimum.

Looks like a great swing tackle option. Not someone to rely on full time, but can thrive in a more limited capacity with less blocking responsibilities.

PFF graded Reiff as the 36th best tackle out of 56 qualifying players in 2022. Seems pretty average to me.

 

[captain stone]

Wouldn't rule it out?

WOULDN'T ****ING RULE IT OUT?!?

WE STILL ****ing need a rookie LEFT Tackle... Now more than ever!
