VanS Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Feel bad for Le'Veon. That's more than the Steelers offered him in guaranteed money. Hopefully he can stay healthy, make it to free agency, and cake out in 2019. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xmad Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Kind of had to pay him given they have nothing on offense long term besides him, solid deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gannon12 Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Excellent signing! Someone needs to see if any of the Cardinals fans on here are still alive. Their sub-forum is as sad as it gets. Like no hope at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the kind of deal Bell can expect on the open market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the kind of deal Bell can expect on the open market. I thought they only offered him $10 million guaranteed over a 5-year deal? DJ got 30 over three years. And Bell's offer was 14 per year and DJ got 13, so not a big difference there. Edit: actually I was just reading the comments under the Schefter tweet, I don't think there is a consensus what Bell was offered lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAF-N72EX Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 And some Bears fans seem to think Howard is getting a second contract, smh. 47 minutes ago, 11sanchez11 said: Edit: actually I was just reading the comments under the Schefter tweet, I don't think there is a consensus what Bell was offered lol.

Those are the numbers people see and think Bell is greedy or dumb or whatever for turning down. But as you said, only $10M of that was guaranteed. The Steelers could have cut him at any point and Bell would've be out of luck, no way he was seeing even 3 years of that contract much less 5. Why sign a long term deal without any kind of long term security? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Johnson was born in 1991. Le'Veon Bell was born in 1992. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the kind of deal Bell can expect on the open market. Not in terms of guaranteed money. Steelers offered Le'Veon more years and base salary but they only guaranteed the 1st year of the deal (which was roughly $15 million). That's basically the exact same money he would make on the franchise tag. That is what made it a joke of a deal. David Johnson's deal has less years and less base salary but he's guaranteed $30 million. That's double what Le'Veon was offered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
