One question is what will the Bears do with Marquess Wilson. It has been 4 weeks since he had surgery.

that's one of the biggest questions for me. depends on how many wrs we keep. do we keep williams at all? if i had to pick today, i'd say

WR: BM, AJ, Holmes, Morgan, Bellamy, Wilson. Maybe Williams as a PR/KR, but most likely he gets cut. Same for Spurlock, the rest of the wrs. Not sure who is PS eligible with these wrs.

Chris Williams has speed, can't coach that and he showed some burst in the few returns he had. The Bears held out Spurlock today, an interesting decision. I do think Bellamy makes the practice squad. If they hang on to Wilson it is most likely because they are keeping 7 WRs to start the season. That is tough.

Williams doesn't impress me as a receiver. And his skill set as a returner can be replicated by Holmes who is a better receiver. Williams is gone. Too good though to stick on PS though. Honestly, the Browns might sign him.

Would really have liked to see Sinorice Perry get kicked too to see what he could do in the return game. Williams has speed but doesn't seem fluid in change of direction needing to slow down too much on cuts. Hester was amazing at maintaining speed when cutting and that's where he broke so many returns.

Williams makes it, Holmes is 30 and there is no way he would be our full time return guy.

I like what Holmes showed on that touchdown and his return, but I am not going tto hang my hat on him. I'd rather keep Marshall, Jeffrey, Wilson, Williams, and hold on to both Morgan and Holmes for now. When Wilson gets back, either Holmes or Morgan gets the ax.

I mean if you cut Williams, then we are relying on a 30 year old who hasnt been worth much for the past five years as our returner.

Markez Wilson will be on IR all year 2014. Chris Williams will make the 53. Next question.

I don't know how much it affects cuts, but you can't count on Marquess Wilson coming back as your #3 in Week 9 or whatever.

This is a guy who's caught like three lifetime passes for 16 yards. I think/hope he turns out well, but it's far from a guarantee. Probably best to assume he's not going to immediately jump into that role to be safe.

He is just 21 years old and has displayed his skills during training camp and is another huge target. He can add another weapon as the playoffs near.

Considering that we never throw to our 4th, 5th or 6th receiver, Wilson will be kept. He can pay dividends in the second half of the year.

I just can't see them keeping 7 WR's and 3 QB's.

Fales gets cut and is signed to the PS....

I'd like to see Sinorise Perry have a crack as our KR.......Holmes can do PR.....Not sure that Chris Williams is large enough or durable for the NFL....?! Hope he proves me wrong.

I think Conte gets cut late. concussion issues.
