Sources: Brandon Marshall to Bears
By Adam Schefter | ESPN
The Miami Dolphins have traded receiver Brandon Marshall to the Chicago Bears for two third-round picks, according to league sources.
The sources said Chicago will send its third-round pick in 2012 and 2013 to Miami for the Pro Bowl wideout.
The trade reunites Bears quarterback Jay Cutler and Marshall, who played together in Denver. Jeremy Bates, who was Cutler and Marshall's offensive coordinator in Denver, is also the Bears' passing game coordinator.
The Bears were in search of a big-play target to complement Cutler. Chicago hasn't had a receiver with a 1,000-yard receiving season in nine years.
Dealing Marshall allows the Dolphins to add to its draft war chest as new coach Joe Philbin attempts to turn Miami around. However, it also deprives the Dolphins of the type of weapon that intrigued free-agent quarterback Peyton Manning.

Manning is a dumbass if he chooses the fins over the cards. His career will waste away with that ty franchise.

With the Dolphins making this trade, I can't see why Manning would wanna go there now. UNLESS he does have an agreement with all his peeps from the Colts to follow him to Miami as well....
Bears = Officially le Contenders. I've never seen one conference so stacked like the NFC in this coming year
How are the Bears able to trade & sign for all these studs
still not stacked like the giants.
still don't mean when cutler is running for his life after every snap.![]()
Agree. I like the Marshall trade for the Bears, but they definitely need to focus their attention and resources on upgrading and fortifying their O-line in a major way.
Your team was 9-7

silly trade. It's still lol Cutler pulling the trigger
A team with Cutler and Marshall will never make a Super Bowl, they're both soft and mentally weak, tbh..
and they beat a 13-3 team in their backyard enroute to another SB
still raging mad
sending death threats to KW
Niners fan with PTSD
koriwhat?
And your team was 13-3 with homefield in the NFC le game and LOST!![]()
Apparently, there was an incident, and he could potentially face a year-long suspension..
NFL receiver Marshall 'slugs' woman at Chelsea nightclub
Dolphins got over on Chicago pretty good, imo.
The problem is that Miami gave Marshall that crappy deal to begin with.
Jeff Ireland is a dumbass. I don't doubt Miami needed to deal BM but he is running a clown show in Miami.
After hearing that Marshall will be paid under $6 million next season, I changed my mind......good deal for Chicago.
