3rivers Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 When bell does return (and he will since if he doesn't they can franchise him again next year), would you try to trade him and for what player(s)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VigilantZombie Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 If i thought they would, yes. But honestly not for players, for picks. At least a 1st and 2 additional high picks (2nd and 4th or 2019 and 2nd 2020 something of that nature). I wouldn't trade him for a high priced player who may end up doing exactly what he did. But we wont trade him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Money Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 Do a Khalil Mack and find someone to pay him and have him sign his tender? OR See if Bell and his dumb a** agent's plan is to not play and then hit UFA. You just delay the process. You take Bell at this year for 6 games plus playoffs at his pro-rated portion of $5.25m, which I think is a pretty good deal. Roll over unused cap space. Then you tag him again next year at $17.5m and have him play 6 games plus playoffs at a slight raise of $6.5m. I'm willing to tag you out of spite and ruin your breaking the bank plans because with this scenario you hit UFA at age 28 as a running back. And I don't think you get anymore than 4 years, $40m at that stage of your career. So much for breaking the bank. In this scenario, Bell would make less money had he taken any of the Steelers contracts. WHich is exaclty how I play the game when you don't tell anyone you're not showing up the week of the first game and **** us over showing not only immaturity but a complete disregard for your teammates and you only care about yourself. You **** me, I **** you a**ho** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

warfelg Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 I hate to say it but Bell is untradable. He can’t negotiate a new deal now, sounds like his agent won’t guarantee any team that he will sign with them, and he doesn’t want to play if it can hurt his long term value. So if im trading for him, not knowing if he’ll play 100%, and no guarantees that I can resign him; I’m not giving up anything of value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At best his value is a 7th round pick right now based on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elky Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 Besides the contract fiasco, Bell has too much wear and tear to my liking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warfelg Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 If I were Tomlin here’s what I’m telling the team today: ”LeVeon has chosen to not be a part of this team. Until he shows up we will treat him as such. He’s not your teammate right now, he not this team right now. When he shows up we will address it, and we will see if he still fits what this team is all about.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
