Devin Hester’s name has now been hastily scratched onto the bottom of the list of offseason distractions for the Bears. The receiver-to-be caused a stir when training camp opened with his quickest move yet: a stunning holdout that caught the front office by surprise. With all the other signings and extensions the Bears have had this year, it’s almost fitting that arguably the best player on the team – and certainly the most dynamic – would be left by the wayside to ponder his fate.

Devin Hester signed on the dotted line on Sunday and thus ended his two-day training camp holdout. Hester’s new deal reflects the game-changing skills that he’s shown over the past two seasons as well as the possibility of him showcasing those skills at wide receiver for years to come as well.

Brian Urlacher now is happy and that's good news for the Chicago Bears defense. He and his "baby's momma" now has the assurance of more "sweet mula". Brian Urlacher signed a one-year extension worth $18 million. It includes a $6 million signing bonus, a $1 million raise in base salary from 2008 through 2011 and then $8 million in the final and new year of the deal in 2012.

Tommie Harris became the NFL's highest paid DT in the history of the NFL. At $40 million over the next four years, he is also the team's highest paid player. The Chicago Bears have been making some bold moves in terms of spending over the last few years, so what gives with Urlacher? Does humbleness and respect have anything to do with it?
