            Well he got his "guaranteed" money. Wonder why WE did not do it?
            Poor Leveon.

            You know when you choose guaranteed money over MORE money?
            When YOU think your game is about to tank.

            HE KNEW he was on the downside. Good for you Leveon.
            Thank you for sparing us the cap hit for your deteriorating game.

              true, but if I was a RB shopping myself around the first thing I would check to make sure is that the teams I'm interested in all have good OLs.

              not just how much $$$ they're offering me...

                The check still clears.

                  true, I'm sure Le'Veon is very happy with his 3.1 ypc this season after talking so much sh!t about how good he is....

                    Le’Veon is quiet. Because he’s slipped into oblivion; just like I said he would when he left. Maybe when he moves to his next team he’ll have a better supporting cast.

                      the only defense for a guy who claimed bell as an elite.. "generational" type of player... and thats coming from Bell's #1 fan. Very telling as to how far and how fast Bell has fallen

                        We'd stop paying him....that why guarantee was bigger that total value.
                        You would have paid him...

                          i am not sure at this point if there are any takers. if so he would have been traded

                            or maybe we would understand the OL is trash?

                            It’s hard to blame one person when other moving parts aren’t doing their job.

                            First year coach, fired the GM right before the season... I don’t think the first year is enough to claim victory.

                              Bell would take 5 of us as his oline if the money was the most.
                              He doesn't care about anything other than that.
                              How is it possible to have the best owner, best front office, best gm, best HC, good/great drafts every year and good FA acquisitions every year, but only have 3 playoff wins in 14 years?

                                yup, Le'veon just wanted to reset the RB market mostly for his own benefit.

                                that's how you end up on a 2-7 team that lost to the Dolphins while sporting a 3.1 ypc average for the season...
