Number2 Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 We are closest to his hometown and are one of the better teams pursuing him. With no 1st round pick we need a DE Biermann, Sidbury and Edwards would be one of the worst group of DE's in the league combined sack total last year was only 10 Sacks!! DO WHATEVER IT TAKES TO GET THIS GUY BLANK AND TD!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1989Fan Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 http://blogs.nfl.com..._headline_stackBears Expected to Come Hard After Mario WilliamsA player like Mario Williams doesn’t reach the open market too often.Williams, 27, is an premiere pass rusher in the prime of his career. He’s a player that any team covets, but not many can afford.That includes the Texans, who are only approximately $650,000 under the cap. Houston will be fine, however, having built a young and dynamic front seven that showed it could thrive without Williams after he went down with a season-ending injury in October.The Bears could be the first team Williams visits, and it might be the only team. It’s believed Chicago will go hard after him. The Bears are also expected to pursue wide receiver Vincent Jackson, and it could end up being an either/or type of situation for the team.The Jaguars also want in on the Williams sweepstakes, but it’s unclear if he would be open to joining a team in rebuilding mode.Williams, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2006 NFL Draft, tallied 53 career sacks in six seasons in Houston. A torn pectoral muscle limited him to just five games in 2011.Follow Jason La Canfora on Twitter @JasonLaCanfora. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

babybanks80 Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 so whats wrong with Mincy? what if we don't get Mario? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1989Fan Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 are you saying Mario is not an elite pass rusher, or you would want 2 elite pass rushers?Mario is 2nd only behind Jared Allen in pressures per snap since coming into the NFL.Not a blind Mario homer, but cant deny that after reading it today. He is also 2 or 3 in % of hs sacks coming in only a 4 man rush/no litz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1989Fan Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Ok La Canfora isn't that great of a reporter lolhe also isn't the only one saying CHI is hot for MW90.Just because you dont agree doesnt mean it has no weight.this MB has a tendancy of dismissing credibility if they dont like the news, lol.

Number2 Posted March 13, 2012 Author Share Posted March 13, 2012 Mincey would suck he would be another edwards his highest sack total is 8 and he is 28 years old ill pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't think so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1989Fan Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Jared Allen had 22 sacks and the Vikings didn't even sniff at the playoffs.a QB corps of McNabb and Ponder had more to do with that than anything.that argument doesnt hold much weight with me because DE is a need of ATL.No one position wins it all, but a pass rush is pretty important,and without Abe this team doesnt have it.I dont care if a pass rush comes from Mario or someone else, but they need to get better pressure nex season, period.

blackredfellow Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 (edited) Mincey would suck he would be another edwards his highest sack total is 8 and he is 28 years old ill pass.1. That is as much as anyone we have now ever had in a season, and 8 is not bad.2. 28 is now old for a DE?

I didn't think so.no, but it doesnt mean they cant do it either.dont get so worked up about it, I am just th messenger. Bottom line is the Bears have a ton of cap space, Lovie wants Mario, so it makes CHI a very possible option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ltstorm2 Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 ?Mario Williams is not the Giants stable of pass rushers. He's going to need help on the other side and I don't think Edwards is that kind of help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steel City Falcon Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 The Bears are going to get him. They already saved a sh*t load of money by getting Brandon Marshall via trade. Now they'll spend big money on Marshall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
