Peanut around until 2013

The Bears have locked both of their starting cornerbacks up for a long time. Tuesday the Bears signed Charles “Peanut” Tillman to a contract through 2013. Nathan Vasher signed a 5 year contract extension earlier in the summer.

Peanut has definitely been burned on big plays, but he is a solid corner, and he definitely makes it more fun to follow the Bears. I hope that he will get more and more national press because this guy is hilarious. He’s never met a microphone that he doesn’t like. Lovie Smith and Jerry Angelo know that the defense needs to stay intact to even try to bring this team back to the Super Bowl in 2007. Signing these 2 guys is a major step in that direction.
