To put it in perspective, Sammy Watkins got 16mil a year from us. He had 39 receptions and 593 yards last year. Please tell me why LeVeon shouldn't demand more money than Watkins. Posted via Mobile Device |

Rams were stupid with Gurley and some team will be stupid enough to pay Bell what he wants. RBs are not worth anything near that.

While I'd otherwise agree that he should get more guaranteed based on performance and a reasonable expectation for that to continue, I'd also not disregard the potential for him to get caught again and miss much more than 4 games. A 4 game suspension is a Stage Two violation of the League's SOA policy, which Bell has already had, and also carries a two-season continued testing and advancement window. With his violation in 2016 again, he may have been advanced to Stage Three because two Stage Two violations in 24 months is an automatic advancement. If you go to Stage Three, you stay there for the remainder of your career. If he's in Stage Two and gets caught with marijuana again, it's 6 games but it's 10 if he's in Stage Three. |

That contract they offered him was a shit deal.
I don't blame them for not wanting to pay a dime a dozen position and I also don't blame him for trying to protect himself. |

No not fair but basically how every running back is handled.

I've never understood why teams are allowed to use the franchise tag on a player twice. Why didn't the NFLPA fight against that?
Its a real shit move for owners to do that. NOt saying bell isn't being a drama queen here in his current pay expectations but getting tagged twice just shouldn't happen. God forbid it happens three times.

Perhaps the answer is to have the NFL start being the direct employer (they are anyway) and letting them decide salaries for each player and who plays on which team each year.
