Forte is the biggest loser in this equation. Not only for fantasy but for paychecks.

1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 TE, 1 RB/WR/TE
Eli, Roth
Alfred, Ridley,
Marshall, Cobb, Fitz, Garcon, Britt, DHB

This is weird, it's almost like the Bears have a completely new GM… oh wait, they DO have a new GM.
Aquired a big top-flight WR, brought it a great backup QB, now has upgraded the RB corp big time… next thing you know he'll go and draft a healthy offensive lineman or two or try and fix the saftey position.
I wonder what Jerry Angelo thinks of all this?

holdout coming for sure
Franchise player Matt Forte expressed frustration with the Bears' Thursday signing of Michael Bush.
"There's only so many times a man that has done everything he's been asked to do can be disrespected!" Forte wrote on his Twitter account. "Guess the good guys do finish last." Added Forte's agent, "To sign yet another running back, prior to completing a contract with Matt suggests disregard for Matt and his contribution to the Bears." Forte may end up skipping offseason workouts and holding out of training camp in protest.

I'm glad I didn't take him now! But lots took early chances on Bush in early drafts. Wonder how this goes.

FWIW, Matt Forte is pissed that the Bears signed another RB before getting him signed to a long-term contract. I can see this go either way. It'll either motivate Forte to be more realistic in his contract demands knowing there is another talented back who could take his spot or he'll get angrier and commit himself to not signing the franchise tender and hold out as long as possible.
To be clear, the Bears have offered Forte a long term deal but it's not to his liking.
