    Looking like Le'Veon Bell might end up an Eagle...

    That pick up might put the Eagles right back in the Super Bowl.. Eagles are trying!!!!

    Dude looked like the best at one point.. Can do it all.. Run and Catch... If he still has it he will put the Eagles in a good spot come playoff time..

    You forget just how good he was in Pitt...

    Bell is out of shape currently and dying to return to the team. He blew almost 6 million dollars by jet skiing and watching games when he should have played made money and possibly been undefeated at this time. Poor decision Bell.

    Bell in shape will make any team better.. He's a top talent.. Put that guy on any playoff bound team and I believe he will make them a superbowl contender over night.. He still has half a season to get back in playing shape and form if he signs on soon...

    My jaw dropped watching this guy run the ball last year... He was patient and effective running the ball.. Could catch the ball also like a wide receiver.. Prime time he really showed as well.. Not afraid of contact... He's a player!!!!

    Eagles mostly out of shape too. Bell's a great fit!

    In fairness they havnt looked the same cause so many key pieces missed time in preseason and early weeks of the year, now that the passing game pieces are playing together the backs starting to get hurt.

    I think the next 3-4 weeks you will start seeing them look drastically better. Not so sure they will Thursday on the short week but after they get this game out of the way and have 10 days before panthers coming to Philly I expect them to look much improved. I actually hope they look horrible in ny so we get a favorable line week 7!!

    Luckily for them they play in the nfc (L)east and even if they fall to 2-4 they will still have a excellent chance of winning the division. Doesn’t matter what seed you are, history has shown us if you get in you can win the whole thing!!! Not saying they will, just that I still think they find a way to win division even if they drop to 2-4, going 7-3 the last 10 isn’t anything we havnt seen plenty of times!

    Jibs there no way you can assume he will just come in and look like himself, we have seen it time and again w backs just skipping camp/preseason struggle to get going and often end up pulling a hammy or something. All the training in the world doesn’t prepare ya for playing football.

    If this is going to happen, you figure the window is the next 10 days. Philly's level of desperation can change depending on what it does Thursday night, and Pittsburgh is off next week, and some seem to think that's a good time for Bell to report, sign, get paid and still have another week off.

    Personally, I don't think Philly is going to offer the second-round pick it would take to get him. Maybe they realize Bell isn't the locker room addition that would create a rush of goodwill by the rest of the team to run up and pat him on the back.

    how much do u give up if u are philly ? a player who clearly doesn't want to play this year and is looking towards next year, doesn't want alot of carries looking to save himself, ohh yah then he may test free agency next year and sign somewhere else, eagles shouldn't give up more than a 4th round draft pick

    steelers will get a 3rd round comp pick if/when Bell walks as a free agent

    it makes no sense for them to take anything less than that

    No probably Jakester anytime ... Just reminding the degens that the boy can still play as some think he's an out of shape bum now...

    He was fun running back to watch, I'd personally like to see him get back on the field already...

    It just amazes me how SBR Hyman and now Drew get this breaking news. I mean who knew the guy was a fat slob now and blew through 6 mil jet skiing. It’s like Drew’s part of his Florida entourage

    Anyone who thinks he was wrong to hold out truly has no clue. Pitt was gonna run him into the ground this year and let him walk. I commend the guy for his principles

    that's alot of money to walk away from, no guarantee somebody next year will offer him gurley money or david johnson, bell wants to be paid like a top wr but he's playing the wrong position

    Well if he got off his ass and signed on to a team now he'd surely be in football shape by playoff time.. He needs to play...

    Not a chance they get Bell. They have cap issues this coming offseason and adding a franchise RB to the mix will NOT help at all. They need all their top draft picks to restock the roster and that's what the Steelers will want in return. Unless they take signed veterans in return for Bell, this deal ain't happening.

    Agreed. 850k a week is a lot of money. I disagree though. Think someone will pay him. Pitt was w out options with all the $$$ invested to Brown and Rapistberger

    Will Steelers seek a roster exemption for Le’Veon Bell?

    heck yah they should, what bell thinks he's showing up on the bye week and getting a free 850k check, no way steelers should let him get away with that, this could get real ugly
