I'll be taking the Bears D with my first pick, followed by every available member of the Bears offense.
My team will be the Chicago Bears.
We're going to OWNZ the league.

Even his fantasy value is suspect.
The Bears claim he isnt the starter. Cedric Benson is sitting right behind him, making 4X the money. I personally think Jones is better NOW, but the Bears dont listen to me.
I told them to get a backup last year too, but noooooo....

i made the mistake of drafting mushin mother fucking muhammad last season thinking the same thing that u probably are now..
he wasnt at all productive last season, and he doesnt have a solid QB to get him the ball.. and the bears run very short pass patterns and run 90% when they are in the redzone.
ill admit.. while he was in carolina he looked like one of the best recievers in the league.. unfortunetly he got greedy and took a fatter contract and took a step away from a superbowl

He was WAY over-rated when he was in Carolina.
He's not that good of a Wide Receiver. He was sorrounded by good talent. He's not a #1 by any stretch of the imagination, except w/ the bears. Dont get me wrong, I like him, I'm happy the Bears have him.
But he isnt that good.

He wasnt even the number one receiver in Carolina!
He was the number 2, behind Steve Smith.
First off, he's 33. Thats old as fuck. He never was very fast, and now he's even slower.

LoL.
We pretty much agree.
I'm not saying he was horrible, I'm just saying that the Bears paid him #1 receiver money, and he's not that good.
He had *1* good year. Look at his stats before that?
I'd copy/paste, but its all fucked up.

http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/f1/296686/playersearch?search=muhammad&stat1=S_S_2004
1400 yards and 16 TD's.. 155 fantasy pts.
then as a bear.. 750 yards 4 TD's.. 54 fantasy pts.
if he would have stayed in Carolina he would have continued to play well, moving to a chicago was a dumb move and has pretty much ended his career... and we do agree you just dont think i know shit about football.

Did you even look at his stats?
His last year w/ Chicago was MUCH closer to his career averages than that anomolous year in Carolina. I think in 2002 and 2003 he only had 800 total yards? Then he had 1400 in 2004 and the Bears freaked out and paid him a shit-ton of money.
You keep saying he had 16 touchdowns 2 years ago. Yes, he did. After he started playing opposite Steve Smith. In the previous *4* years, he only had 13 touchdowns TOTAL. Thats like, 3 a year.
Steve Smith made M. Muhammad look like a good receiver. He's really not.
