2019 Free agency Thread
We don't really have one of these yet, so figured we could use this as a place to discuss potential free agent acquisitions and what we would like to look for them to bring in.
If any of you guys are interested, heres a good place to do some research. https://overthecap.com/ |

He's slow to the hole on purpose. The talent won't go away (if he hasn't slowed already) but the production very well could.

The guy averages 4.3 yards pc on his career. And i'm not saying he can't, but he doesn't want to imo. He'd rather have people talk about his style and have those you tube highlight videos for you to gush over. |

Exactly how many runs from this 30 min highlight wouldn’t translate?
https://youtu.be/eQRHO6i3-j0 ![]() This is the problem when you don’t actually watch guys and just role with narratives instead. I’ve been watching Bell since college and anybody suggesting he wouldn’t kill it in Reid’s offense with all of the talent we have at the other skill positions is reeruned. |

What i'm saying is that imo he's not a fit here for a few reasons.
His running style doesn't fit. (And once they made a big deal about his style he did it even worse) His contract demands don't fit. His attitude doesn't fit. His future production is NEVER going to be anywhere what he's paid imo. |

And I watch every game I can. Ive seen him play quite a bit.
I usually don't search YouTube to watch "tape" on players. |

But that’s a 30 mins highlight reel of his entire career and very little of what you see there doesn’t translate to our offense and it’s obvious to anybody with a clue. |

And I definitely could be wrong. If he came here I'd hope for the best. I was wrong on watkins last year. When he played he made us a much better team. Right now I don't think Bell would.
I'm sure you are always quick to admit you're wrong..But hey, i'm not going to call someone reeruned over a disagreement over a football player either |

But it's a highlight film, it only shows the good plays. It's not showing when he dances around in the back field and takes a loss. That's my main point in talking about YouTube highlight videos. He's a career 4.3 ypc guy... |

I’m not calling you a reerun for having a disagreement about a player.
I’m calling you a reerun because in a hypothetical with all other things even you don’t think Bell would kill it in this offense because of his running style. It’s a really stupid take, sorry. And yes, I’ve admitted when I was wrong before, but there’s a difference between being wrong and saying something ridiculously dumb to begin with. |

Now you’re talking like he was overrated before because of the bad or something which just goes to show you’re way off on Bell. He averaged more than 4.7 YPC in 3 of his 5 seasons. His 3.5 in year 1 make it look worse than it was. |

I'm not talking like he was overrated. I'm saying he was great THERE. He fit perfectly there. I don't think he's that player everywhere/ anywhere.
I don't think he has a kareem hunt season here. |

I edited my post but you beat me to it. He averaged over 4.7 YPC in 3 of his 5 seasons. He might not be a perfect fit with Reid, but he’s close to it and would still be on of the best. |

What he does best is wait to find a hole.
How many of his career 1229 attempts did that 30 minute HIGHLIGHT video actually show? |

Why would you be so disingenuous to try and leave out his most RECENT season? It was his most used season and ironically he only averaged 4.0 yards a carry. I'm sure that's why you left that one out but counted one where he only played in 6 games ![]() And you call me a moron? Jesus |
