No one really knows how good he is until he gets away from Chicago, this reminds me of Trotter a little bit too much, the only difference is we only had to give up money for Trotter, not drop 25 spots in the draft

I agree....And don't forget that contract he'll sign that will haunt the team for years to come. A team that is always up against the cap is always looking to sign the most expensive players in the league, and damm the consequences. It does not take long to grow completely frustrated by some of the moves this team continues to consider making. Fix the area of the team that needs fixing, the D-line--LB is not a pressing need for this team, therefore there is no NEED for Briggs at this time.
