    Interesting. Aside from having to give up a valuable draft pick to the Steelers, he probably wants too much. Not sure it’s worth it for a RB.

    Hands down.
    They have enough pass catchers, top 3, if not best in the game running back that grabs 5 passes a game out of the backfield puts them way over the top.

    3 out of 4 SB MVP's are QB's.

    Do no think that reality would preclude a trade.

    It makes me laugh when people say RBs shouldn't get paid because when is the last time a top RB won a superbowl , It's a terrible argument..

    When the hell was the last time a top 5 WR won a super bowl but they get paid 13+mil for a mediocore WR and don't do anything close to what a RB does to help a team win , I mean good WR puts up 80-1000 a year so they touch the ball around 80 times a year , But someone like Bell that protects the QB with great blocking , Puts up the same receiving numbers as a good WR and 300+ carries for around 2000 total yards shouldn't get at least what the top WR does ?

    I think Bell should get 20mil a year for the 400+ touches , 2000+ total yards , protecting the QB , And taking the hits he does in the shortest lifespan careers in the NFL.

    Won’t happen. The Eagles aren’t about to mortgage their future for a rental especially at a position like RB.

    As an Eagles fan, I hate this thought. No running back is worth 20 million in the current NFL especially not with the amount of touches he’s had in the past few years

    If Bell would play for 14 mil a year he would have signed the extension offered to him before last season.

    He didn't sign it because it wasn't guaranteed
