Le'Veon Bell

[Oh wow]

"Wow" just cant admit that he was wrong. hed rather argue for Bell than for the Steelers. Tells you where his heart lies

That’s funny coming from the site who spends more time ripping the Steelers than cheering for them.

I’m just arguing contract numbers and RB value.

I knew the market wasn’t devalued and I’m back to laugh at people who swore he wouldn’t get this much guaranteed money.

Now where is the guy who sai Bell wouldn’t get more than 10 mill guaranteed? I think that was Steelhere.

[Eich]

Only??? Haha... pretty sure you predicted less guaranteed money and said the RB position was devalued.

Now a 61 mill contract for 4 years isn’t a big contract for a RB?

You guys are killing me.

It's a good contract. But not what Bell was expecting. Not all that better than what the Steelers offered. More guaranteed in the 1st year. Less overall per year.

AUGUST, 2017: “AB. Yeah, I see ya’ll cuz. Big dog, I got pups bigger than Air Bud,” Bell raps. “Are you aware, Bud, why I’m not at practice? I’mma need 17, cuz 26 is savage. They say the franchise should be enough. Pockets of Professor Clump. Let me get back to my day, I can’t keep showing Buddy love.

JULY 2018: "The offer from the Steelers was worth a total of $70 million over five years (or $14 million per season). Although the offer would have given Bell the largest multi-year contract of any running back in the NFL, he turned it down, and one reason he likely did that, is because it was nowhere near his asking price, which was reportedly in the neighborhood of $17 million per season.

One other reason Bell might have turned the deal down is because it apparently wasn't loaded with any substantial guarantees. The contract included $33 million in guaranteed money, which was going to be paid out over the first two years. "

MARCH 2018: "I'mma guess I'd better take 13, cuz the J. E. T. S. Jets Jets Jets Jets, gimme a deadline and no one else showin' love

Yeah, I was slightly off with the numbers.

Gurley got 4 years, 57 mill with $45 guaranteed

Bell got 4 years, 61 mill with $35 guaranteed.

I can live with being wrong about it by a few mill in guaranteed money.

it was more than that bro.. he was gonna get a better contract than gurley... remember? lol. weve got about 1000 of your post in 6 different bell threads we can pull up if we need to refresh your memory

that time off should have you refreshed. im sure youve been rehearsing your answers during the down time...
ive always said i admire your heart anyways. you dont have an ounce of quit in your when it comes to your boy lol

We offered Bell 14 mil a year in 2017; that’s a million more then the open market just gave him. Colbert tried to take care of his own guys.

yea... and those facts are unavoidable. thats really where the argument begins and ends

he wanted a chance to "Test" the open market... and i think some folks were surprised at the outcome.

When your momma and your agent tell you to take a contract, next time listen. Lol

[Oh wow]

That is funny money. Only the guranteed money is legit. And we told you he wasn’t going to get more guaranteed money then Gurley. You were wrong.

If only he guaranteed money is legit then he made the right move.

I have no problem admitting I was wrong about him getting more guaranteed money than Gurley.

Can you admit the RB position wasn’t devalued like you thought?

Didn’t you say he wouldn’t get 30 mill in guaranteed money? Can you admit you were wrong?

I bet you can’t.

lol.. i dont figure bell will get another legit contract offer. unlike he would likely have if he had signed in 2017.. could have had 2 bigtime contracts.

[Oh wow]

Please pull a few up. Would love to see what your predictions were vs mine.

The running back position has been devalued dude. Everybody who knows football knows that. And if Bell would have waited after the draft, he’d have gotten less

[Moonie]

What a fool, what a tool. I'm sure in Bell's pea-brain he can convince himself this is a win, but that's because basic algebra is not within his grasp. And his few supporters on here appear to have similar IQs, or at least the same dealer he does.

I will enjoy watching his career flounder on the Jets. The Jets, ffs! He signed a lesser deal, and it's with the dog-Jets. And, for their part, the Jets will look back three years from now, and wish Bell had gone back to the Steelers, cup in hand. Bell will NEVER perform like 2016 again.

i heard most of his offers came in at about 10 or 11 milion a year.. if there were a pile of teams willing to "Back up the brinks truck"... bell would not have signed this deal so early in FA. He realized his pipedream contract was just that..

[Sword]

my god...going to the Jets for less than we offered....he struck out big time....not only was the Steelers contract generous but, lets not forget he is injury prone and was suspended for
substance abuse for 4 games!!!!! the next time with the Jets he will probably be suspended the whole season.......

[flippy]

After holding out for a year, you do have to wonder why he was now in such a hurry.
