The Chicago Bears pulled the big upset Thursday afternoon by acquiring Denver Broncos quarterback Jay Cutler, a source told ESPN.com.
The deal includes Bears send Kyle Orton and two first round picks for the 2009, 2010 years and this years 3rd round pick, and the Bears get 5th round pick for this year and Jay Cutler.
This is a hell of a move by Chicago. They are instant Superbowl contenders for next year. Cutler is a young, "potential" filled QB, and if he can win a couple of games on the offensive end, the Bears will win 13 games a year. As for the Broncos, they get Orton, who is manageable, and they will probably pick up Josh Freeman or Mark Sanchez in the first.
BMack's Take:
"Denver agrees to trade Pro Bowl quarterback Jay Cutler to the Chicago Bears. The Broncos will receive first-round picks in 2009 and '10, a No. 3 pick this year and Kyle Orton, the 'Chicago Sun-Times' reports (Sportsline)."
Wow, I am even shocked about how much the Broncos got. I think Cutler is a very good QB, but this is just silly. We all know the Broncos had to move this guy, and the Bears still have to give up 2 first round picks, a third round pick, and Orton. At least now the Bears finally have a QB, but man this really gives the Broncos a chance to rebuild quickly. Good for Josh McDaniels for getting this done so fast, and for this much....more tomorrow.
