Put this in another thread but maybe worth its own discussion
I'm actually beginning to wonder if Bell really wants a long term contract. He obviously has interests outside of football and will have made about $30M before he is 30 years old. That is generational money no matter who you are.
I would not be shocked if Bell tests free agency next year and doesn't get near what he hopes he will and then decides to retire. If you look at the big picture and get over the football obsession as a fan, it is probably a good play on Bell's part. He leaves healthy and rich.
