Hill is a product of the system.

Holding, chosen franchise, etc.

Nothing special.

Other than the dumbass Steelers players who talked shit on him, I'm sure every other player is thankful for him taking a stand.

I really hope that this backfires on him and nobody is willing to pay him a dime more than the Steelers offered him. I also hope that his greed is rewarded with a career ending injury next season. Screw that greedy self serving pick of crap.

He's greedy for wanting a long term deal over playing on a 2nd franchise tag?


I swear, there's no other industry other than sports where people will openly side with billionaires ****ing over their employees

Tyreek is a product is product of holding and the Chiefs being a chosen franchise? Awful take.

:D

I have no problem with what Bell has done. Steelers were wrong to tag him twice in my book. He played on it once and then they gave him the ball 400 times. Not fair to him to tag him again. He chose not to accept so he doesn't play amd doesn't take any more of their money. It's fair.

Justice would be if bells legs snapped off at the ankles in a non football incident a day after week 10 ends.

Their offense is clicking really well

Might be better if Leveon did come back.

But probably not.

He can tear an Achilles after he signs a long term deal and he only gets what’s guaranteed in his contract. He had a guaranteed 17 million this year (I think). He will never recoup that money. He should have signed a reasonable contract with Pittsburgh with as much guaranteed money his agent could negotiate.

He obviously never took economics at Michigan State and learned about the time value of money.

The Steelers could franchise tag Bell for a third time in 2019, but he would be tagged at the quarterback salary number, not the lower number he was tagged at this year, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero.

"My understanding is the NFL management council and the NFL Players' Association, the parties that negotiated the collective bargaining agreement, are on the same page that if Bell were tagged a third time, whether he shows up this season, whether he sits out the entire year, that tag would be at the higher quarterback number, not the lower number similar to what he would be due under the franchise tag this year," Pelissero said on NFL Up To the Minute on Tuesday. "It would be extremely unlikely for the Steelers to put that higher third franchise tag on Le'Veon Bell. That would set up a scenario where they'd tag him a third time, the number is upwards of $25 million and Bell, if he wanted to, could walk in the day he's tagged, sign it and be owed $25 million for one season."

If not signing, why leave Miami in November for Pittsburgh?

Iowanian 11-10-2018 08:25 PM

Who in the hell is going to sign the drama llama for more than 5 years 70mm?

I'd say connors success behind that holding offensive line make bell expendable.

And apparently the smiley face at the bottom of my post wasn’t enough for you to realize I already knew that.

If he tears his Achilles next year after signing a LTD he gets 35 mil guaranteed. If he would have torn it this year playing on his tag, he would have his 17 and wouldn't be able to make up the 20 mil difference on his next deal.

I'd rather take the 35 mil next year over the 17 mil this year.
