Beside that we are screwing ourselves up by paying so much for Briggs and screwing over Rocky who we have invested quite a bit in.

It's really a bad trade for both teams. The Bears don't have a use for the No. 6 pick. They don't have a Briggs replacement on the roster.

So Angelo won't be able to accept the 31 and Briggs for the 6th. He's too smart, too patient, and it hurts his defense far too much. It makes sense that he's doing his due dilligence and requesting a trade that benefits his team. This trade just won't be possible without at least one side getting royally screwed.

Look, I don't know where the Lance Briggs is a headcase faction arose from, but nothing could be further from the truth. Contract negotiations are tricky, and he's simply saying what his agent tells him to to get him the most money.

The proposed deal by us hurts all parties involved except Rosenhaus. Fitting.
