Even though they have 4 on the active roster, I am shocked they don't even have a RB on the PS. I hate to say it but, while I wasn't at Bear practices, but I think some of this I think was blowing some smoke by Trestman. You can't expect a guy to perform at a high level, new position in limited time, limited game experience.

The team also announced 10 signings to the practice squad: WR Josh Bellamy, C Taylor Boggs, DT Brandon Dunn, CB Isiah Frey, G Ryan Groy, LB DeDe Lattimore, CB Al Louis-Jean, CB Terrance Mitchell, DT Roy Philon and WR Rashad Ross.

To say I am disappointed with this sh!t move by the Bears & Trestman would be an understatement.

Even though the ending as a bear must be a hard blow for JL. The experience for JL trying out for a profession team that he loved growing up must have been incredible. No other team drafted him or were really interested in him (minus Packers but that seemed to fall through too) I hope he gets a chance with a team elsewhere but I do think the bears did give him a fair shot which he deserved. The bears new early on that he didn't have what they needed. They knew it was going to be tough for him to change position as a RB but they must of loved he work ethic, belief and tenacity. JL deserved this experience and even if Trestman was blowing smoke he let Jordan lynch be a "bear" this past summer.

Truth be told Lynch wasn't good enough. This isn't a **** move by the Bears and Trestman.

Lynch just needs that first shot, when he gets it, he will run with it, guaranteed.

What exactly does that mean? Lynch doesn't have speed, or enough power to be an NFL RB. If his name wasn't Jordan Lynch and you looked at his skills you would not be saying the same thing. Or if he didn't go to NIU and went to NU or the Illini.

He didn't have straight line speed, but the three cone drill which measures change of direction was at the top of those tested. Change of direction speed is more important for a power back

Big Man I have news for , Dan Bernstein is clueless, you don't have to regurgitate what he says lol

The Lynch/Bears and starting QB topics have really separated the emotional/dramatic posters and the logical/reasonable ones

Obviously, there's more to the NFL than a cone drill. If he can't play, he can't, I accept that. What I don't like is the Bears using Lynch as a publicity stunt. They should be above that.

NOBODY, not just the Bears, has Lynch on their team or practice squad. The Bears didn't screw him. They brought him in and said "no thanks." They are allowed to and it makes sense to.

And there are hundreds of guys crying into their beers saying "If I only had a chance....". That's life.

It not about talent and effort. If that was the case, he'd be on the team. It's about numbers and reps. Unfortunately he was at the bottom of the depth chart because of switching from QB to RB which gave him little to no reps in practice and games. It's not always a skill game. Danny Amendola was cut and placed on a practice squad several times.

Lets reserve judgment until he gets an honest shot with someone.

Let's reserve judgment until he gets better.

Stop using logic! There is no place for that on this board!

There can only be blind homerism and ignorance.

How did the Bears use Lynch as a "publicity stunt?" Please enlighten us.

Did anybody really think Lynch was going to be an NFL player? A great college player who had no chance of being a QB at the next level. The RB thing was a hail mary that didn't work.
