Does he want to win or does he want to be at home?  If home, Dolphins all day.  KC offers a better championship opportunity, but they also just invested a first round pick at RB, plus had no issue sitting a healthy McCoy for the SB last year.  If I’m looking for opportunity to win and bring more value to my next deal, I’m going to Buffalo.   He’s about 7th fiddle in KC, Buffalo offers a chance to be RB1 and weapon #2 behind only Diggs.

But he trains and lives in Miami. Plus he almost signed with the Dolphins before signing with the jets. Plus Flores loves him and there’s history, but I say if he wants to contend the Buffalo is probably his best bet. KC already has two good RBS, he wants to start and Buffalo and Miami he would instantly be the number 1 back

That’s fine.  I was responding to someone that said he lives and is from there.  
 

KC doesn’t have two good rbs imo.  Helaire and 2 bums

How did I know that when two thirds of Bell's final 3 choices were the Bills and Dolphins that Belichick would jump in? 😑

 

 

How many damn RBs do the Cheats need? No way he signs there. Why would he pick the definition of a committee back field? That would be like him choosing the Ravens.

Bell is all about the money and nothing more.  Pittsburgh made him very good offers, and had a great winning franchise.  If winning was important to Bell, he would have never left the Steelers. 

 

But now he has to prove himself again if he ever wants another contract, so he's motivated.

 

Given Allen a pass catching RB would open up the playbook even further.

Hadn't thought about the tax implications.

Right now he's drawing his Jets salary, not playing (so the states he plays in can't ding him for state income taxes), and presumably living in Florida (no state income tax).

If he plays in NY state as his home team, does NY treat that Jets income as income derived from playing for the Bills? If so, the Bills would have to sweeten the deal as opposed to the Dolphins.

Helaire is good though and I highly doubt Bell would want to share carries and be a back up. Buffalo, Miami are his best bets. Plus KC benched McCoy in the Super Bowl so if I’m Bell that for me plays a factor against going to KC. Singletary and Moss have been disappointing to say the least. Josh needs a running game to help him out

What if we pay him $1 million for his consulting fees and he plays for us for free? Then the Jets have to giver him every penny, right?

I like it.

Let's call it the Le'B26 Plan.

That’s a good point you just made, I forgot about the state income tax thing. I say he’s signing with Miami then due to the tax break he’ll get because he’ll be in Florida. But I do wonder if he can still get that break IF he signs with Buffalo?

Bell is washed.  Hasn't done a thing of note on the field in 3 years.  That's an eternity when you're talking running backs.  Sure, kick the tires on him for the vet minimum, but I don't expect him to provide anything that Singletary or Yeldon aren't already providing.

I won't deny that Singletary & Moss have hardly wowed with their production. And aside from the Titans game, the coaches for some bizarre reason just refuse to give TJ Yeldon a shot. Also Bell is the type of RB who needs some gaps to run thru. And right now that's not happening with this one dimensional OL. Maybe league minimum only I could live with. But somehow we have to create a run game.

I don’t think view 2020 Bell and 2019 Shady in the same light in terms of ability.  We’ll see.  If he sees KC as the place he can get the most publicity and a ring,  it makes sense.  He might view our OLs inability to open holes as a HUGE negative. I would

I hadn't bothered to check until now. Shady's rushing stats this year look like Reggie Bush's Bills stats:

 

4 games, 2 carries, -2 yards.

 

But 9 catches for 54 yards so Brady's found some use for him.
