He'll be released. He's something like 32/33 and the Bears just traded for another DE. CHOP THA BROCCOLI

Wow... that is a shock... gotta wonder what the Bears are thinking or is there an issue unreported as of yet?

I just read it somewhere a bit ago. PFT maybe? It makes sense when I read it though.

Bears | Gaines released

Sat, 17 Oct 2009 09:10:54 -0700

Brad Biggs, of the Chicago Sun-Times, reports the Chicago Bears have released TE Michael Gaines, the roster move necessary to make room for DL Gaines Adams.

Zero forgot his source 

Cutting Ogunleye makes little sense for the remainder of this season anyway.. think of the rotation that he gives them, not to mention protection in case Adams can't step up.

That would be like the Packer obtaining a starting left tackle right now and cutting Clifton.. he is under contract and you have the cap space.. keep the depth.

I was bouncing around on the net and wanted to see if anyone else heard about it. Then pack93z inquired so I gave some info.

Forgetting and trying to generate others to search it out are two separate things.

What I did forget to do was ban you. I'll fix that. 🙂 (kidding)

They're idiots if they cut Ogunleye. He's better than Adams, and is their best DL (except for maybe Tommie).

Except for certainly Tommie Harris.

I don't know why this man is getting so much love. He hasn't been an elite DE since his last year in Miami and hasn't been great last year or this year. I think that he's lost a step.

Yeah, he sacked Rodgers quite a bit, but c'mon, I'm pretty sure that Jamal Reynolds would've gotten those sacks, as well.

He's a lot like Adams, skillwise. Just decent/good. Can make you pay if you have a bad tackle or hold the ball too long, but isn't a playmaker by any means.
