Welcome Leveon, Its Great to have you on OUR team!
I can’t think of a more frustrating player to watch play against us than Bell. Maybe Manning, but still. We could just never get him stopped. I’m with you, glad he’s playing for the good guys now.

Massive double standard there.
He used his leverage to **** himself and the Steelers if you want to boil it down to the truth. He didnt get paid as much as the Steelers offered in the end and he wasn't on the team in a season they needed him.

Now he has to play a part time roll for another team and hope he gets a decent payday next year. Big gamble yet again.

If you watched that press conference and aren't giddy about having a player who was top-5 on the NFL 100 list only two seasons ago, you have no soul and belong in hell next to Scott Pioli.

They franchised him twice for a RB that's ****ing him. And that contract they offered was a joke, it has nothing for guaranteed money.

Keeping him away from another team we could face later in the playoffs like Buffalo is worth it.

Teammates know it's a business. It's why they rarely speak bad about a player holding out. Not a good sign when the entire locker room trashes you.

By the way he also skipped the Jets first voluntary workout even though his team made it clear they preferred he be there.

So yeah, plenty of excuses for why he made the business decisions he made. But his history as a teammate is justifiably sketchy.
And your point is, what?

In the unlikely event that Bell becomes an issue in the locker room, the Chiefs can cut him with minimal financial impact.

Bell has everything to lose in this situation if he becomes a problem (which again is unlikely considering his history of being a supposed “team cancer” is greatly overstated).

He still got less $ in the end no matter how you slice it.

The saying “the best defense is a good offense“ applies on many levels in this case.

I've said many times I'm excited as hell we got him.

Maybe he got less money. Maybe he didn't. Maybe Pittsburgh would've run him into the ground and he would've been injured and never received another guaranteed contract again. Maybe he was okay making less money to bet on himself in a principled way while not being taken advantage of by Pittsburgh.

I don't think it's clear his story is written. Maybe he wins a Super Bowl in KC and rejuvenates his career. Maybe he wins a Super Bowl in KC and doesn't but feels he had a fulfilling NFL career by getting a ring.

He had a contract offer before the 2nd Franchise tag that would have paid him more than missing out on a season and what he ended up making with the Jets.

Pittsburgh’s final offer, Bell says, fell short: five years, $70 million—$14 million per, with the only fully guaranteed money being a $10 million signing bonus. (The Steelers have a policy of not offering future guarantees in veteran deals.)

Does this sound like a good deal?

Sounds like a great deal to me.

But I'm not a pro football player or Bell.

The signing bonus sounds kind of low though.

I see you left off the last sentence there for some odd reason.

(The Steelers have a policy of not offering future guarantees in veteran deals.) But it also included $33 million paid out over the first two seasons,
He got $27MM of the Jets money and didnt get paid for a year.

https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/kansas-c...on-bell-12329/


So yea I suppose had Pitt just shit canned him after one year he could have made less but he basically took a year off and turned down 2 year $33MM deal with more on the table and took a 2 year $27MM deal.

Im not an accountant but....1 year no pay plus $6MM less in the 2 years equals around $12-15MM loss assuming he makes 6-9MM in the lost year?

But hey it was a moral victory am I right?
