What do you guys think about Alex Brown ?

by BoscoHB on Mar 26, 2010 1:08 PM EDT

Its being reported here in Chicago that the Bears are set to either trade or release DE Alex Brown. Many in Chicago are not happy about this because he was a solid contributor. He's no superstar but he shows up every Sunday and works HARD. What do you guys think about the Lions throwing their hat into the ring ?

Heres a link to the article, the writer pretty much says what a lot of Bears fans are feeling about this move.

If he's released, sure

But I highly doubt that the Bears would trade him to us, or that we would want to give adequate compensation for a middle of the road, 30 year old DE.

He's ok

but I can’t understand why everyone seems so anti-Avril. Let the young guy start so we can see what he’s really capable of now that he’s got some actual talent playing alongside him on the line. We’ll never know what he can do if we don’t give him a chance to show us.

We'll have to see if the FO brings him in...

Not coming to Detroit in any case

Wants too much money if released, Bears will not trade in division.

I would rather find a way to bring DeVries back.

i feel like they would be similar contributors.

Give Avril a shot

The guy has done decent in our scheme. The one problem with the scheme was the middle. The ends did their job, it’s the DT’s that failed to get the push they were suppose to.Imagine how many sacks Avril and Hunter would of gotten had the DT’s gotten pressure and QB’s couldnt step up in the pocket. If Williams can get pressure like he did in GB look for Avril and KVB and Hunter to have a good year. Now add Suh to the equation then we have a very dangerous line (thats if we can get him.)
