Steelers Trading Bell
-
... and the Pats get richer...
If report is true, then PTG has to be willing to allow suitors to negotiate with Bell pre-deal. Only way they get anything close to fair value for him.
-
Pats will probably get him for a 4th rounder ....lol
-
how the hell

that guy isnt coming here to.share the ball with hyde. he'll be a locker problem
We have what Bell would give us already in Hyde Chubb and Duke

I am not saying we should go after Bell but have to heartily disagree with you. He is elite well above the three of them combined. That said he wants more money that I can fathom any team giving him.

You’re allowed to be disagreeing with me. In other words you’re allowed to be wrong.

Speaking of the Pats.................down 13-0 with only 4 min. of offense for Brady with 5 min to go in the half.

My understanding is if you are under the franchise tag you can't work out a new deal until the end of the year, if thats the case no one is going to give anything more than a 6th or 7th rounder for Bell.

That is the case, but I imagine a team will give up more than that because he can play. A team who views themselves a player away from contention may give up more than 6th to have his service the rest of season

Patriots will sign him for a 4th rounder this year and a 5th next year...

I believe they can rescind the franchise tag? Correct me if I'm wrong.

A little late for "this year" Po. Except they don't have a 5th round pick next year. Josh Gordon trade. The Browns also have the Patriots third round pick (Danny Shelton). So let's hope the Pats suck big time.
They do have their 4th rounder, and probably a couple compensatory picks at the bottom of the 3rd. BTW, looking at Spotrack the Patriots only have $5 million in cap room this year, and $24 million total in cap room in 2019. Giving Bell a humongous deal does not compute from a math standpoint. Unless of course Brady retires.
Here's the potential landing spots, and scratch Cleveland off the list. https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/steelers-reportedly-willing-to-trade-leveon-bell-here-are-5-possible-landing-spots/ Just because we have the cap room doesn't mean we're going to give a malcontent the fat contract he thinks he's worth. If things go as planned, we're going to need that cap room when Garrett, Mayfield, and Ward come off of their rookie deals. Don't forget we shipped Gordon out because he couldn't toe the line.

Josh becomes a free agent after the season, so if he stays on the field and stays on track the I bet the Browns might decide to bring him home...

4th in 2019 & a 5th in 2020 is what I meant ?

BUT- Po. He's a restricted free agent, so the Patriots can tender him- and if he plays to a Pro Bowl level, you can bet on a first round tender. We'll see, he has to play the Patriot way, and stay out of trouble....
EDIT: As far as "bringing Josh home". Sorry, forget it. I don't know what Gordon did- or didn't do- to get traded. But whatever it was, he burned his last bridge with the Browns, and he knows it.

But like I said- the Pats don't have the cap room to sign him. If anything, looking at the potential landing spots from that article- the 49ers would be the best choice for the Steelers (assuming they'd be interested)- ship him out of the AFC.
Personally, I think Bell has seriously over valued his worth on the open market. Shades of Terrell Pryor- who got about 1\2 of what he thought he was worth.

I had enough of defending Gordon and getting let down.. Bell can go suck a pickle...

Who is a better every down back then Bell? Gurley?
The guy might not be worth it to the Steelers, but somebody will gladly use his services.
Sure handed, route running and physical..

Sure, Gurley set the market. A team might want him- but can they afford him and not blow their cap in the process?

He cant step on field without signing it. So it is sign it and play, sign it and get traded, or be released
