The Last Briggs Thread? Bears Say No Deal

FOX Sports - NFL - Sources: Bears reject trade offer for Briggs (http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/6640430)

THANK GOD!!! This was a bad deal for us from the start. Im really looking forward to seeing what Rocky can do with some extensive playing time. Besides we are in prime position to deal down and pick up more day 1 picks if one of the top prospects slips to 6.

Meh.

I'm still sickened that we made the offer

I would be astonished if we actually showed restraint and didn't end up pulling the trigger on this deal somehow. I can't think of another example of us trying to do a deal and not getting it done because we couldn't meet up on terms. We always end up bendng a little more and making the deal happen.

Best thing the bears could've done for us! Thank you chicago... WHEW!

I hope this is really the end....... and also the last thread?

If this is truly the end of the LB saga.....thank you LORD!

I don't like the fact that we actively pursued Briggs, even though he would've upgraded the LB corps which I think it was fine anyway. I do like the fact that the Skins kept a hard line on the deal and didn't do what was expected of them and that was to give up everything for Briggs. They stuck with we'll give you our first rounder and you give us Briggs and your first rounder and NO you can't have anything else. Just like the Denver deals, once they asked for more then the Skins said No give us what we want and this is all that you can have.

Isn't the off-season grand!!!

damn it...........JK SWEET
