* ALL DEALS WILL BE UNDER OBVIOUS BUDGET LIMITATIONS

FREE AGENCY

I think the bears are done signing any position in free agency except WR. The Bears still need a WR and there are still a couple on the market for the bears worth going for. If I had a choice, I would go with Marvin Harrison, DJ Hacket, or Lance Moore.

Lance is a good possibility, but he is a restricted free agent so it might cost a bit extra to get him. Torry Holt said that he was not interested in going to the bears so he is probably not a possibility anymore.

TRADES

There are also some WR's that are looking to trade that the bears should definitely look at. There are three, Braylon Edwards, Anquan Boldin, and Chad Ocho Cinco. I would go for whichever one they could get. They will probably be traded on or before draft day.

If it takes Urlacher or Vasher and draft picks the bears should probably do it.

Then the bears Will have a No. 1 receiver and the bears don't need to waste one of their first picks on a WR that has a good chance of being a bust because the WR position is the No. 1 position that have become "busts" and they can draft a CB or LB to replace what they lost.

Plus, The bears can get rid of Urlacher's huge contract while he's on the downfall of his career for great talent for Cutler to throw to. One More Trade would be to try to go and get Plaxico Burres but I highly doubt that because he's going to face a several game suspension this year.

DRAFT

Top needs: WR, OL, DB, DL

Second round: WR Brian Robiskie, or anyone that slips from the first round, or Derrick Williams. Robiskie will come in as our No. 1 receiver. The Bears must take the best receiver available when they pick here.

Third round ( compensatory): Phillip Hunt DE fills a need, someone that Rod Marinelli can work with that can make a huge impact. They finished with around 13 sacks last year.

Fourth round: David Bruton FS A big and athletic FS. The Bears do not have a FS at the moment and Bruton would step in immediately as the starter. He is about 220 lbs with a 4.4 40 and is 6'2" about. A lot of Potential with his athleticism

Fifth round OL (from Broncos): Louis Vazquez OT/OG Huge Pancake Blocker, can play guard or tackle and can add depth at the OL position. Has potential and may be able to start at guard. Will also learn a lot from Orlando Pace and someday will probably take his spot.

Fifth round: WR Aaron Kelly 6'5" 4.49 40 38 inch vertical. I don't know why he is projected to be in the fifth round. A steal here and will add depth at WR probably steps in as the No. 1 receiver if the Bears don't get a WR earlier in the draft.

Sixth Round: a change of pace RB

Seventh Round: An OL or CB

Seventh Round (compensatory): A defensive Tackle
