    Like the pic... in Rd 3-4 maybe. Could have picked up same quality in rd 3. Arthur Brown was my pick in Rd. 2.

      I preferred Arthur Brown over Bell as well. Now we get to see him crack our heads with the Ravens.
      Here comes the BOOM!

          Starting to see the RB's come off the board now. Maybe a Bell caliber of back would have been gone by the 3rd? Hopefully we'll find a second round talent in the 3rd, to try to balance things out a bit. I'm Ok with Stedman Bailey if they take him, but really think we need to focus on getting the best DB that is available with our next pick.

Excels in pass game, could score a lot of TDs.
              hmm...rookie of the year. I remember hearing that before

                I just watched a couple highlight videos on Youtube of Le'Veon Bell. There were a lot of big holes for him to run through, he takes a lot of runs to the outside (it will be more difficult to get outside of an NFL caliber linebacker), and I didn't see a lot of broken tackles for a big running back. He did looked quick, caught passes and used blocks well. I also didn't see any blitz pickup, so I'm not sure what he'll be like pass protecting for Ben.

                I think he may have been drafted a round too early.

                  The general consensus seems to be, he's a soft back in a big back body.
