What's his current value?
the TDs aren't there, but he's on pace for over 1600 scrimmage yards. He's getting 83% of the Rb touches......in Kansas City.
So my point to him was to trade him based on that, you start listening to these rumors and you'll end up with Singletary and Will Fuller

Ever since Gyno mentioned Chicago, I've been thinking that's where Bell could make the biggest difference.


Chicago or Kansas City make the most sense.

Oh, so you're talking about CEH.

So I have CEH. If Bell went to KC I'd just start both every week and pray for 30 points. Nobody in my league wants to trade. No fricking point. I'd have to give up Darren Waller or Calvin Ridley, and I would not get equal value.

Schefter saying he believes it's at least 4 positive tests. Also saying Vikings/Falcons in jeopardy.

And we already have 4 teams on a bye. I may actually have to start Jamaal Williams if that game isn't played.

NFL needs to get a hold of this shite and just start saying all tests are negative nothing to see here. If someone dies blame it on cte no one cares about that anymore anyway.

Per source, the Falcons had just one additional positive test (on top of DT Marlon Davidson’s test) that led to the decision to work virtually on Thursday. The positive was from Wednesday’s round of testing, and was to a non-player.

So, for now, team is acting out of caution.

Le’Veon Bell currently plans to sign with one of three teams, per source: Dolphins, Chiefs, Bills. Barring change, Bell will decide among these teams as early as today. Steelers reunion unlikely at this point.

Tough to see him in Miami. He’s paid & I would assume wants his best shot at a ring. He’s gotta end up in KC or Buffalo for a real shot at that in the short term.

ETA: although if he just wants to be on the field, Miami would love to have him. It’s 2020 so I guess Fitzpatrick will win the SB anyways.

As a Bell owner, these three teams make me happy.

I have no part of any of those backfields in that league.

Chiefs are arguably the best offense in football. Bell is a good pass catching back and could see plenty of goal line work since CEH has struggled a bit with that. Bell wouldn't supplant CEH, but it would probably be pretty close to a 50/50 split.

Bills are a very good offense and Bell could easily take over lead back duties in short order. Singletary hasn't been bad, but he hasn't been all that great either.

Miami isn't a great offense, but Bell would probably have a pretty high usage rate. I think Gaskin would still get some work, but i'm thinking Bell would probably take over lead back duties there as well.

Thoughts?

Chiefs would not be ideal and bills would be worse

Miami would be best spot for Bell

I think Buffalo would be the worst fantasy wise because of Allen taking goal line touches and they still probably wanna see what they have in Moss. Then add in Singletary.

Agree that he would take over in Miami relatively quick and they've been able to score so he would do pretty well.

KC is the best for all of the reasons you said.

I wonder if the good that Bell could do for Kansas City would outweigh the fact that I would have to start two RB's from the same team.
