Bushrod is now a Bear

I Just hope Brown can stay healthy.

Our line has been a revolving door for years. We'll be alright.

Brown, Bushrod, Nicks, Grubbs, Faine, Goodwin, De La Puente, Stinchcomb, Strief, Brown, etc.

We always manage to find the next "right" fit to continue to do what we do. Goodluck to Bushrod... I'm glad he got paid.

I am not at all happy with this. Good for Bushrod but Brees has made sure he will get the protection he deserves.

TheDeuce · 03-13-2013, 08:30 AM

Brown, even when healthy, is garbage. One of our worst draft picks since Sully. If we are relying on him to protect Brees, we are in deep sh*t.

Best of luck to Bushrod. He came out of nowhere, played really good football for us, and seemed to be a classy guy who represented the organization well. He's a good left tackle, not elite, but still gave us some reliability at that position. I disappointed he's gone.

Bushrod got a LOT of negapinion on Black&Gold.
He did a great job and I'm glad he got his payday.
One or two bad days got stuck in peoples minds, but week in and week out he did his job.
He's not going to be crying to come back to NOLA even if he struggles with the Bears.
He'll just keep trying to help his new team while counting up to $35 million.
NOW we have to figure out how to "adequately" replace him on Brees' blindside.
It won't be easy and we definitely can't leave that door open and hope for good success.
I'm happy for him though I hate to see him go.
I hope I'm not missing him at all once the season starts.

He got his payday so good for him, but he will be on the streets in 3

Cutler better step up his release time. Drew makes O-linemen look better. They wouldn't let Bushrod go if they didn't have a plan in place. I thought we could keep him and I don't think Brown is the answer. Strief and Robinson...maybe.

I tend to think that players (especially big fat lazy linemen) tend to regress once they get their big paydays. I like the idea of saving money and giving a hungry newcomer a chance.
