Derrick Mason a possiblility???

Yahoo! Sports - NFL - Mason Could be the Go-To Wideout Bears Crave: "With only $2.5 million under the salary cap it will be difficult to lure Mason, who made a base salary of $3.3 million last season and would have made $3.2 million this year. "

Slim Tim Speaks: "Well, he isn't the local prospect like Justin McCariens was when we should have gotten him, but this free agent receiver deserves the best look of all the free agent receivers currently. He lead all receivers in 2004 with 96 catches and was second only to Tony Gonzalez for all players (Tony had 102 catches).

Rank Player Team Rec Yds Avg TDs Long
1 Tony Gonzalez KC 102 1258 12.3 7 32
2 Derrick Mason TEN 96 1168 12.2 7 37
3 Chad Johnson CIN 95 1274 13.4 9 53
4 Joe Horn NO 94 1399 14.9 11 57
5 Torry Holt STL 94 1372 14.6 10 75

At 31 years old, this player would really do well with our pool of young receivers." - Slim Tim.
