His career span is short, don't want to risk injury, need that big signing bonus.

For those that are following closer than I am, when is Le'veon Bell gonna play?

?????? Good question. Sources are saying he's expected before end of Sept but

its pretty weird. his paycheck is set. they won't negotiate. he's burning

Because running backs aren’t that valuable

They would be likely to pay if his backup didn't come out and

Had 1 good game and one meh game. Plus Bell does a lot more than Connor and

Dillinger

The meh game had much more to do with the game flow than Conner's

CougsBeatU

I agree. But to say Connor can do what Bell can do is silly.

Dillinger

9/18/18 11:43am

Nobody said that. Another silly thing would be to pay Bell 20x more than his

CougsBeatU

9/18/18 11:46am

Well the Steelers are 0-1-1 ... Who knows if Bell would have been the difference

Dillinger

9/18/18 11:47am

Unless Bell can kick a FG in the rain AND play defense against Kelce

CougsBeatU

9/18/18 11:50am

Maybe, maybe not. Whole game could be different with him. Might not have come

Dillinger

9/18/18 11:53am

Agreed.

Wants a long deal with a lot of guaranteed $$, not 1 year franchise crap.

Dillinger

9/18/18 11:41am

Of course he does. And most teams don't feel motivated to offer that to RB's.

Each of them are looking out for #1 so I don't blame either side really.

Dillinger

9/18/18 11:45am

I understand his side, I also understand the Steelers side

the guys on sirius think that when he said no to the deal last year he

That would not surprise me

What was he offered last year? I don't remember.

I think

Could be to preserve his body before free agency.

Preserving your body at the expense of showing you are a locker room divider

Maybe true but, teams care more about performance. Locker rooms in the NFL are
