I really doubt he'll see that kind of money. Gurley is still young with a lot of miles. The Steelers have put a lot of miles on LB. Not saying the Steelers can't treat him better than they are.

Emmanuel Sanders on NFL Network says he'd have signed the frachise deal and played full season, but taken out an insurance policy that guarantees big payday if he gets injured. That kinda makes some sense.

Steelers will tag him next and force the issue again. Not a good decision by Bell.

You're worth what someone will pay you?? So Albery Haynesworth and Matt Flynn were worth huge contracts they signed? **** out of here with that BS logic. You are worth what you contribute to the team not necessarily what you are getting paid. Overall, I see both sides. Whether it's money or whatever Bell clearly doesn't want to play there anymore yet the Steelers keep trying to hold him hostage. IMO that's wrong. This isn't prison let him go if he doesn't want to be there. That said I think Bell is a shit teammate who only cares about himself and also isn't handling this situation well. End result is the Steelers are more than likely not going to get as much as they should for Bell because of their stubbornness and Bell isn't going to get as much money for the very same reason.

I do not ever want another work stoppage, but the NFLPA has got to become stronger somehow, and players need to have more of their contracts guaranteed. With the damage they expose their body too, and the danger to their future quality of life, these players deserve better monetary protections and benefits.
NFL teams can cut players just to eliminate their salary, or force the player to renegotiate. That is the current system, and I have advocated that we use it in dealing with Houston's contract, but that doesn't mean that I am insensitive to their dilemma. Sent from my LG-H932 using Tapatalk |

And the teammates that spoke against what he's doing are so ****ing stupid for doing that, it hurts. It's the most backwards thing you can do when you're part of the union. What Bell is doing is also helping them out even if they don't want to acknowledge it. When their contract is up, you think the team won't ask them to take discounts for the good of the team and convince them to take less because "hey, if you fight for more money, you clearly care more about money than football." They ****ed themselves when they spoke out. Posted via Mobile Device |

Anyway, you act like the contract the Steelers offered him would have made him the 10th highest paid RB. He was offered a contract that would have made the highest paid RB in the NFL. He wanted more Steelers said no. He decided to sit out the season because of it. This doesn't make him a hero to the union especially since Conner is having a great season and the Steelers offense hasn't missed a beat. |

And again, Bell has already been franchised, played on the franchised and got 400 touches during that franchise year. Stop acting like he's just an asshole here. No player wants to play under the franchise tag, much less be ran down, then tagged again the following year. Posted via Mobile Device |

"Bell should just be grateful and have taken what he was offered!" Just because any of us would have signed that contract in a heartbeat doesn't mean he should have. |
