Aint no lie...bye bye bye (Berrian)


No it aint no lie..or a boy band song....Bernard Berrian is going to be leaving the Bears. This last week Berrian had been visiting with our division enemy the Minnesota Vikings, and the word is he isn't comming back. Berrian led the Bears with 71 receptions for 951 yards and five touchdowns last season. The Bears had offered him a $25 million, five-year contract with $8 million to sign. They remained in discussions with agent Drew Rosenhaus during Berrian's visit to Minnesota, but couldn't lure him back. While this isnt breaking news, we all saw it comming, it leaves a Huge hole in the WR spot for the bears. Hester has made a statment that he would like to compete for a WR spot, it is an interesting proposition with his blazing speed, but they need some proven skill not someone new. The bears better be willing to dig into thier pocket books this offseasons or they are going to be in big trouble come preseason.
