jetfuel34 Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 Here are somethings that I consider when signing Bell 1. We will have to overpay to get him here. If he is looking for 16 mill with 45 G. We will probably go around 17-18 mill with 50-55 G. 2. Will Bell REALLY play hard if he gets paid? I say yes. He wants to show people that he is that good because people are doubting him with Conner doing so well. 3. Would he improve the Jets that much to be worth all that money? The Jets line is pretty bad. I think Bell can still be good with this line because he can read a hole so fast and shift to it or just wait for it to open up. Most guys just plow ahead with a hole or no hole. I would also like to add that having Bell on the Jets would have better players wanting to come play for the Jets. I think we can get a good WR 1 when one hits the market. I wanted the Jets to trade for Cooper so bad a month ago. He would be the #1 guy that Darnold could grow with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wanted the Jets to trade for Cooper so bad a month ago. He would be the #1 guy that Darnold could grow with. I think everything you mentioned is true. A thing to add is that he wants to win a ring. Which we don’t offer right now... But I think we add an edge with him as a big FA signing and rebuild this OL (100% doable). We are contenders again. Probably still a year or 2 away. We get a big time WR via draft or FA in 2020 and we have the makings of a very good team. I think what’s very underrrated is... how much better Darnold and our defense would be just bc of a better OL and Bell here. Defense is better bc they’re not on the field as much making them fresh and not as much pressure either. Darnold becomes better bc the running game is a big time threat and opens up lanes for him to pass in and give him time to throw. It’s not just about Bell I’m getting Bell. It’s that he makes Darnold (our big investment) better and makes the odds of him becoming a franchise QB better. And makes our defense more useful.

There offense is pretty set minus a #2 WR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They might not see the need but if I wanted to open up that SB window wide while Luck was still young I'd consider it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus the Colts have plenty of cap money. The question is where would you want to play if you were Bell, with the Jets or the Colts, who are a team on the rise ????????

They're not in the same boat as us. They have good players on offense. They're probably looking and saying we need a #2 and 3 WR and a defense. Bell absolutely could make them better. But they're already the 4th highest scoring team in the NFL. Scoring isn't their problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could easily add Bell without hesitation and go after multiple good defesive players to fill out their team. If Bell wants to be paid and have a chance to win then he's not coming here.

Jag68Sid87 Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 It matters little whom we acquire. As long as we are led by bad personnel people and coaches, we will continue to spin our wheels ad infinitum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ekill08x Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 I dont care how much money we have. There is very little chance we are a playoff team even if we add bell. If we dont. There is almost no chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And by the way right now the temperature is 77 deg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
