Chiefs sign Kendrell Bell (ESPN Insider)

**Saulbadguy** · 03-08-2005, 01:30 PM

According to ESPN Insider, from the NFL Rumor Central:

Mar. 8 - Linebacker Kendrell Bell and the Chiefs have agreed to a multi-year deal that includes $10 million in guarantees. The Eagles were also interested in Bell, but stopped pursuing him when they re-signed Jeremiah Trotter.

Bell, 26, is coming off a season in which he was limited to three games because of a recurring groin injury. He underwent surgery in October to repair a sports hernia. Bell was the NFL's defensive rookie of the year in 2001.

Wasn't my first choice, but it's something. If'n it's true.

Don't kid me...BELL IS A STUD WHEN HEALTHY!!

Archie Bunker · 03-08-2005, 01:33 PM

First off

2nd that is a lot of cash. Guess we can forget about Hartwell and the other.

TRR · 03-08-2005, 01:35 PM

If true, Bell is an awesome signing. I never thought Kendrell would sign here. This guy is more of a playmaker than Hartwell...A lot more of a playmaker, but there is more risk involved.

bringbackmarty · 03-08-2005, 01:35 PM

if true this is a good signing, and consistent with our offensive fa acquisitions. Bell could turn into a monster lb if he can stay healthy.

**Bwana** · 03-08-2005, 01:35 PM

That's a good start, now keep moving Peterson you hump.

HolmeZz · 03-08-2005, 01:36 PM

Not going to complain if that happens, but it would be reeruned to give a double digit SB to Bell when we wouldn't even offer one to Hartwell.

Ghostof · 03-08-2005, 01:36 PM

I'm not buying that until queen carl comes out and says it

until then, its a ploy to divert attention away from CP

Considering it's a 7 year deal. That's a pinch towards the cap.
We have enough money to sign anyone we want.

~Want Hartwell too.

nmt1 · 03-08-2005, 01:44 PM

This guy is just another sucky 2nd/3rd tier free agent that no one else wanted and we overpaid for him. Man Carl is such a moron.
