The Bears have announced they wont be offering a contract to Forte. This would be a great pick up. His between the tackles running, blocking and pass catching abilities would be a nice boost to The Pack's 23rd ranked offense

It's the kind of guy TT would go after because he won't count against the comp pick formula. Would not be opposed as he is a far more developed receiver than anyone we currently have. Sure, maybe Forte wants a bigger role, but maybe he also realizes that being part of a platoon with Lacy extends his career a few years. You can still draft a change of pace guy.
Forte is a better back than Starks by a solid margin and there is no reason to worry about the money - we have room. Why settle for Starks because he's "OK". (Are we now settlers? ) Give me Forte and an ILB in FA along with a couple of solid contributors in the draft and I'll take my chances on this team being better next year than it was last year and a viable SB contender.
