The Facts:
There has been considerable buzz about Internet pictures that have tracked Cutler partying around town in the last few weeks. He has Type 1 diabetes, which makes his nightlife a concern for a franchise that that's made a significant investment in him. "When we did our research, we know he goes out, we know he does those things," GM Jerry Angelo said. "We talked to our medical people, we talked to the Denver medical people. It comes with the territory. We're comfortable with it. I really can't answer it beyond that."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Because of the price paid to acquire him (the Bears shipped Denver their first- and third-round picks as well as a first-round pick in 2010 and a fifth-rounder this year in addition to Kyle Orton), Cutler is somebody the Bears want to monitor -- but only to a degree. "I'm not going to micro-manage a person," the GM said. "If we have to do that, that's not a good sign. ..." Making this story somewhat more interesting are reports that emanated from Denver last month suggesting Cutler's "
alcohol consumption and football smarts" were issues for Broncos HC Josh McDaniels.
