Matt Forte

No sign of progress in Matt Forte contract talks

This year's offseason workouts begin next Monday, the starting date and the period in which teams can conduct such programs having been pushed back under the new collective bargaining agreement. The Bears will be without running back Matt Forte for the sessions if he does not sign the tender he received as the team’s franchise player or a long-term contract is not worked out. To this point, there’s been no sign of progress. Publicly, general manager Phil Emery says the team continues to work toward the goal of a multi-year deal.

Without an offseason program last year, Forte reported to training camp in the best shape of his career. He then enjoyed the best season of his career until a minor knee sprain in Week 13 put him on the shelf.

Fantasy Impact: 

Forte bristled when the Bears signed Michael Bush, so it will be interesting to see if the two sides can work out a deal this offseason. Forte's value takes a hit with Bush on board, but he could be a sneaky mid-round pick if Forte's relationship with the team worsens further.

The Oakland Raiders acquired running back Mike Goodson from the Carolina Panthers on Friday in exchange for offensive tackle Bruce Campbell, a trade both teams hope will improve their depth.

Goodson, who ran for 501 yards and three touchdowns in three seasons with Carolina, became expendable after the team signed free agent running back Mike Tolbert earlier this month.

The Raiders needed depth at running back after losing Michael Bush to Chicago in free agency. Starter Darren McFadden has been injury prone, missing 19 games in his four seasons and Taiwan Jones played sparingly as a rookie and is seen as more of a change-of-pace back.

With only five draft picks and none until the end of the third round, new Raiders general manager Reggie McKenzie is trying to fill as many holes as he can on the roster through free agency and trades.

In three seasons with the Panthers, Goodson played in 28 games with three starts.

He rushed 125 times for 501 yards and three touchdowns and added 43 receptions for 329 yards. Goodson, 24, had three straight 100-yard rushing games and three touchdowns late in the 2010 season under former coach John Fox in 2010.

Bears sign RB Michael Bush to four-year deal worth $14M

RB Michael Bush agrees to terms with the Bears, per league source. Four years, $14 million.

Fantasy Impact: 

This is not the ideal (or even a good) landing spot for Bush, who has feature back talent but will find himself behind Matt Forte. It also kills the potential value of Kahlil Bell, should he remain in Chicago. The Raiders will feature Darren McFadden, but he has been injury-prone in his career, and at this point Marcel Reece and Taiwan Jones are next in line for touches. If DMC were to go down again, Reece and Jones would likely form a "Thunder & Lightning" combo.

Bengals sign RB BenJarvus Green-Ellis to three-year deal

RB BenJarvus Green-Ellis reached agreement on a three-year deal with the Bengals.

Fantasy Impact: 

For a time, it looked like Michael Bush was the best bet to land in Cincinnati, but instead the Bengals turn to the effective yet unexciting BenJarvus Green-Ellis. After a solid 1008 yards (4.4 YPC) in 2010, Green-Ellis only managed 667 yards (3.7 YPC) in 2011. Fantasy-wise, his main value was as a TD threat -- he found the endzone 24 times in two years. The Bengals are not the Patriots, so the Law Firm will have a tough time matching those TD numbers in 2012. However, he should get more consistent carries unless he falls into a timeshare with Bernard Scott.
