I haven't heard anything about the Bears looking at Colombo to
sign.

He is just saying that Columbo is done in Dallas and that since
Angelo falls in love with his picks he might invite him back. Of
course you havent heard any rumors yet

Not to mention, Colombo's the fuc-ker that rewarded us drafting
him by leg-whipping Tommie Harris and effectively ending his
career and costing us millions that we paid Tommie for nothing
on top of what we paid Colombo for virtually no production
either.
Maybe he'll get another chance someplace else but no way should
it be in Chicago.
That being said I seriously doubt it will happen. We're at least
one player long on OTs already.

<b>Strange comment by Hanie from Bleacher Report???:</b>
Chicago Bears: Caleb Hanie
Jamie Squire/Getty Images Jay Cutler is the Bears quarterback,
even if Cardinals defensive tackle Darnell Dockett tweeted, “If
I'm on chicago team jay cutler has to wait till me and the team
shower get dressed and leave before he comes in the locker room!
#FACT."
Hanie became a household name in last year’s NFC championship
game, but it’s a small house. But in almost leading the Bears to
victory in that game, Hanie showed he has the skills and
potential to be a starting quarterback (or at the least, a very
good backup), and that is a very precious commodity.
The Bears also just drafted another developmental quarterback in
Nathan Enderle, giving more reason to see if Hanie could net
them some profit on their initial investment.

Kruetz is not even a Bear anymore. They will ahve to re-sign
him once the labot dispute is over to get him back.

I don't know that Omiyale is going anywhere. In fact, one
potential O-line could have Carimi playing guard and Omiyale
staying at LT. Even if we go with a Webb/Carimi combo Omiyale
can play 4 spots on the O-line as a backup.
As for Chris Williams, he's probably the 4th tackle which means
he better beat somebody out at guard. He'll have plenty of
competition with Louis, Johnson, Garza and Williams and whoever
the Bears eventually sign.

Supposedly Garza can also play center, not that I am anxious to
find that out first hand. I still look for an undrafted OL FA
signing.

Garza at C would be a 1-season stopgap at best. He is just
about as used-up as Kreutz is. And I don't see this year's FA
market exactly dripping with young talented centers.
We really should have picked up Kreutz' replacement in this
year's draft. That 3rd round pick we spent on the project FS
would have been the perfect opportunity... but since that didn't
happen we'll have to either a) re-sign him and hope he's no less
effective than he was last year (which was still marginal), or
b) let him go and count on somebody in-house as a 1-year stopgap
and then make C a top priority in next year's draft as he will
need to be a guy that can start from Day One.

You are probably right, But, OTOH, I didnt think they could
even find an OT past the 5th round last year and came up with
Webb in round 7. It seems that the Bears feel that finding as
well as paying offensive lineman should be quite an easy task
and that our great coaching staff can just mold them. So,
whether we fans feel confident that a decent center can be
found, I firmly believe the Bears feel that they either already
have one on the roster or that anybody can do the job. And wasnt
Hilgenberg a defensive guy converted to center or was that Bortz
who was a defensive player? The Bears have never had a high
regard for offensive lineman.
