His value, IMO, remains the same. Bush will do the grunt short yardage work when need be and Forte will continue to break out some runs and be great catching out of the backfield.

I actually think it's the presence of Brandon Marshall that could take touches away from Forte more than anything. This is a guy who should catch 40 more balls than any WR the Bears had last year.
Also the injury from last year and new contract starting this year...that scares me off too.
