Pine Barrens Mafia Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 That would be amazing. A real weapon from the backfield. 1

We have the money. We have the need for real play makers. He is not a malcontent, he just wanted to protect his worth. Nothing wrong with that. I would be stoked to get him. Especially if we can get 1 or 2 more starting lineman through FA/draft. He is ultra talented, no doubt about it. But I wouldnt say sitting out an entire year and being suspended is not being a malcontent. 1

For a fan base who just watched their team go through a 17 year drought, I don’t think any Bills fan should think the Bills are above adding any playmakers. Bell would be a difference maker for our offense.
TOboy Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 He'd be a HUGE addition to our offense, but I'm not getting my hopes up, it's pretty doubtful that he's coming. I think the Bills may have made a call to check in, doing due diligence, and are now being used to help create a big market for Bell. 1
bilzfancy Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 No RB is worth what he's asking for and Pittsburgh didn't miss a beat with Conner
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 I like it. Even if they aren’t ultimately buyers it seems like they are spending the energy to be in every conversation that might help improve the roster. 2

I mean, this isn't 1960 Again, I don't think it's happening, but Shady's off the cap after this season, and we were never going to spend every little bit of cap space, so it's do-able from that standpoint.

Kirby Jackson Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 I can get behind it. He is instantly our best runner and pass catcher. 3

Conner started out good, but faded big time. Zero 100+ yard games rushing after week 8. Edited March 12, 2019 by Mark80
TheBeane Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 10 minutes ago, Chuck Wagon said: Yes please. Sign Bell and send Shady back to the Eagles. I'm all for it! I was just thinking exactly this earlier this morning. Trade Shady for Aghlor and pick up Bell. We need a significant weapon on Offense right now and Bell can catch and run. Front load his contract and have a few escape clauses in the later years. Beane wants to have a big splash and struck out on AB. Could see this happening... or not. Could also see him just getting into the bidding to drive up the price.
aristocrat Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 pitt thought he was worth enough to pay him 14 mil last year(he didnt show up but that was his deal). we have a qb on a rookie deal. rams paying gurley pretty big money.
Mat68 Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 I dont believe it. Where the original tweet? Not some guy saying she said. I would be all for it.
