Adam S. Speculate that Bell suffered a

[Steelhere10]

Lisfranc injury per his tweet, but he have no evidence just speculation.

If true, that SUCKS!!! I have higher hopes for Bell than I have had for any rookie in quite some time.

[Steelhere10]

In his tweet he just said that a mid foot sprain can sometimes be this injury. I think he's just trying to be the first to report it if true. All speculation if you ask me.

Why do non-medical writers speculate on injury without any information?

[steelz09]

I hope it's not major.

With that being said, I didn't have high hopes for Bell anyway. I didn't like the pick to begin with.

Add to that, the guy was already having an issue with his knees getting banged up and now the foot sprain after 4 carries. Obviously, he can't make any impact if he can't stay on the field. Some will say it was just a fluke and I hope it is.... but to me it's already looking like a trend at least for this year.

Considering his college career wasn't riddled with injury, I would say its a fluke.

True but it's not uncommon that guys who have no injury history in college, struggle with the "injury bug" in the NFL.

had to make sure the post had enough letters

Whether it's just a sprain or the more serious one that Adam is speculating about, it still will likely mean Bell will be out from 6-8 weeks. So na matter what, it's likely that Bell was a wasted selection. And it will mean we will have to re-sign Dwyer now. Cause after this season, expect offers in the 35-to40 million range for Dwyer.

Wow, You're a special, special guy.

Dwyer isn't getting close to a $35-40M contract with one good season unless he has over 1300 yards and 10+ TDs. Even then it is unlikely given the deflation on the market for RBs and Dwyer's previous history for not being the most dedicated fitness nut.

[sedatedsteelerfan]

The 35 million won't be a true 35 million. I meant 35 million on a 6 year deal, where the signing bonus would be like 6 million, and the last 2 years of the deal would have base salaries of like 8 to 10 million. That way it's really a 3 to 4 year deal that would average like 3 to 4 million a year. Perfectly reasonable for Dwyer IF he maintains his production for a full season this year, and has like 1200 + yards.
