Well, apparently the Chicago Bears didn't get enough excitement about cutting defensive tackle Tank Johnson, so they decided to make the front page news again. On this special day, the Bears extended the contract of Pro Bowl Cornerback Nathan Vasher an extra five years. The current deal was set to expire following the 2007 season. Also in that deal, Vasher was set to make just $850,000.
Vasher, a fourth round draft pick in 2004, felt he deserved a little more cash than that. The Bears delivered. According to Adam Schefter of NFL Network, the Bears and Nathan Vasher agreed to a five year extension worth $28 million, with $14 million in guaranteed money. Schefter is also reporting that Charles Tillman is next on the Bears extension list. Tillman was a second round pick in 2003, and his contract is also set to expire March of 2008.

Vashers incredible, he'll be elite like Champ Bailey very soon.
He will be elite, but I wouldn't go so far as to say Champ Bailey status. However, the point was made, Vasher is incredible.
