Bears cut former 1st round pick Chris Williams... somewhere Bongo mourns

Wasn't Williams supposed to be a relative of the formerly infamous Bongo? Nephew perhaps?

2008 was an odd year for me, but I always found it odd when you have never heard of a first round pick. Not saying this guy was unheard of, but he was to me.

You mean the Vanderbilt homers on here didn't talk him up like he was Jesus?

I have no idea, I was just settling down from a deployment, 07/08 were some weird years for me. Both football and nonfootball related.

I've never heard of him either. Plus he was an OL pick. Nobody remembers OL picks past the top 10 picks.

Has talent and I don't think our interior line could get any worse.

Bears O-line is pretty poor too, and he has been inactive for the past 2 games, but who knows that a change of scenery could do

he must've been pretty horrible to cut a first round pick, mid-season.

Too bad he's a left tackle..he could probably take the job after a day of any of our interior guys.

They moved him to LG last year........... aparently it did not work out

A good desciption of what Chris Williams is like from an Illinois newspaper. Aparently he was soft, not very physical and not very hard working.
