WR Brandon Marshall now a Bear

Dorian, “The Trashman” Colbert, RosterWatch.com

The first huge trade of the off-season has taken place. WR Brandon Marshall, formerly of the Miami Dolphins, is now a Chicago Bear in exchange for two third round draft picks. The move reunites him QB Jay Cutler, who he worked with in Denver. This only improves the fantasy prospects of both players. Cutler gets a true no.1 receiver to sling the ball to, and Marshall gets a quarterback who can consistently get it to him. Miami is left with a depleted receiving corps, and are not assured of coming down with a stud in the draft. They could potentially acquire a reliable free-agent in Marshall’s stead.
