Darren Sharper, MIN Mar. 1 - 2:30 am et

The Bears have reportedly emerged as "serious" contenders to land free agent S Darren Sharper.
Sharper played strong safety in Minnesota but would be used deeper in Chicago. The 33-year-old will be in New Orleans Monday. Brian Dawkins' out-of-nowhere $17 million deal with Denver reset the veteran safety market.

Sharper is better than Dawkins at this stage of their careers. A similar deal for Sharper would be a good one.

What makes you say he is better than Dawkins right now?

The Eagles have been hiding Dawkins in coverage for the last two seasons. He's declining rapidly.

Sharper stated he doesn't want to play in a Cover 2 system. He thinks it limits his effectiveness.

He probably wants a job though, and the Bears don't play the Cover 2 more than 1/3 of the time.

You're right, they don't play it...they fuck it up.
