It would probably be one of the few things the Bears have done right in a while. But then again, I wouldn't be surprised to see the Bears trade him away. Does Matt Millen have any influence in Chicago? The Bears trading program over the past couple of season have been simply aweful. But look to the positive side...they re-signed Rex!

Great dude from the U of M. They would do good to use him as an every down receiver.

Something eerily similar with the Bears and Cubbies. They both like to "throw money'' for zero results !!!

Why NOT pay him?
Cuz they're best offensive threat is a KICK RETURNER.
That's NOT a good sign.
And because the Bears have holes all over the place on that team (at skill positions, O-line, etc)... and it's stupid to throw MORE money at a guy who's basically neutralized by simply kicking away from him or just STAYING IN YOUR LANE on kick coverage.
When he's proven he can do more (consistently) than just return punts - vs teams that are stupid enough to kick to him or that don't have very good special teams units - THEN pay him more.

Hester will never be more than a kick-returner. He stinks as a receiver and just can't seem to manage understanding routes. Maybe he could be a better corner. Still, what else have the Bears got at this stage? Hester makes other teams quake the way the old 85 Bears defense used to do. And, sadly, he's the only Bear.
