Bears should Trade a low round pick for Lamont Jordan. He is big fast and fits the system Lovie is running. Jordan is a Good charecter guy and won't go to them if he's not traded he will head to Denver for revenge on the Raiders! Most low round picks don't pan out anyway and most don't make the team! I would trade a conditional pick based on yards gained, the Bears would protect the team if he's a bust you give up a 7th if he is productive maybe Oakland would take a 6th. No brainer and he fits the system that henry doesn't and henry has 1 disapline strike against him. If not they have forte and nothing else and who knows what you got there!

The Bears are in trouble now, Rex at QB and now without a decent running back, it was a far fall from a Superbowl apperance two seasons ago.
