Seahawks keep Bennett

[RamsJunkie]

Seahawks re-signed DE Michael Bennett to a four-year, $34 million contract, including $16 million guaranteed.
He chose to stay with the Super Bowl champs over the Bears, who were reportedly offering more money. Bennett, 28, "started" only three games in 2013 with Seattle, but racked up 8.5 sacks and a forced fumble while playing both defensive end and tackle, primarily operating as a sub-package pass rusher. He's not an every-down player, but the Seahawks are big believers in "wave" rotations up front, and Bennett's versatility is critical in their philosophy. The Bears may now attempt to make a late run at free agents Michael Johnson and Lamarr Houston, the top remaining available defensive ends.

Dang it...

I was under the impression he did choose the bears.

This is why OL has been and still is our most important position to address. We have to go against the likes of Aldon Smith, Justin Smith, Brooks, McDonald, Bennett, Avril, Mebane, Dockett, Campbell, and Williams. The lack of push we had against teams like SF & SEA dictated the outcomes of those games. We need to add a vet guard and draft an OL in the first few rounds
