He hasn't been much yet, and he's missed some time due to injury. He's not a locker room guy, and this past month hasn't been good off the field, but he was the 4th overall pick just three years ago, and spent his first two seasons as Thomas Jones' backup. And in '07 when he was the starter, the Bears had some gaping holes on the Oline. Not to mention he's never had a decent QB in the pros. Soooo, someone will take a chance on him, and at 25 with not a lot of miles he has plenty of time to find success.

If he is released, I could see the Bucs, Broncos, Texans, and maybe even division rivals Packers or Lions taking a shot on him.
