NY Daily News' Manish Mehta reports the Jets are looking to trade Le'Veon Bell before Tuesday's 4 p.m. ET deadline.

Shipping Bell out of town following a half-season of service would leave behind $13.19 million in dead cap hits over the next two years. Signed to an outrageous four-year, $52.5 million deal with $27 million guaranteed this offseason, Bell's contract was arguably the biggest disagreement between Gase and now-fired GM Mike Maccagnan; Maccagnan was the one making the calls on the Bell signing and the outrageous contract handed out to off-ball ILB C.J. Mosley. Despite wanting no part of it, it's extremely unlikely Gang Green's able to find an organization willing to take on the 27-year-old's contract, which is fully guaranteed through 2020. Mehta cited the Texans, Chiefs and Bills as likely suitors.

Cap numbers and right/wrong move aside, can you imagine the reaction around here if the Chiefs made a play for Bell?

LMAO

Now ask why the Jets would do it? They only have $9 million in cap space right now. And you're talking about accelerating another $15 million onto it. So they'd have to clear $6 million more AND burn up that rollover.

All for the privilege of a 5th round pick?

And lets be realistic, they don't have anywhere near enough time to pull all that off. If that were under consideration, they'd have needed to have been discussing it for weeks.

Bell's a paycheck player - you aren't gonna get him to freely or easily **** with his money. So unless you make him an offer he can't refuse, you'll never get it all worked out by the deadline. And if you're willing to make him that offer he can't refuse, why the hell would you bother for a 3rd day pick?

They're stuck, IMO.

Maybe.

But it's also the Jets.

I'd still see what the Seahawks are thinking about with Rashaad Penny.

Never thought he was a smart use of a 1st rounder and probably wouldn't have even used a 2nd on him, but I'd have considered it. With this season and 2 more on his rookie deal, he's probably worth a 3rd to someone.

And for the record, I STILL want Mike Boone. That kid can play but the Vikings have an embarrassment of riches at HB.

The only part of Bell not making sense is the $$$.

Hi, SDSU fan here.

No thanks. LOVED Penny as an Aztec, thought he was going to be a great Pro. Watching him in Seattle, that's not the same Rashaad.

IDK what his playing weight is, but dude has seemed to balloon a bit in the pros and looks slower.

I hate big money RBs but even I would love Hell right now.

The cap hit is a gut punch, but there's no denying that he would add an extra element to an offense that sorely needs it. We need to take pressure off Mahomes and keep D's from just dropping safeties 30 yards back and playing pass every down. With our inability to consistently pass protect, Shady's inability to handle the ball like an NFL player, 2.1 YPC Damian Williams and a hobbled Mahomes, Bell might be just what the Chiefs need.

Cap hit aside, there's no denying that Bell makes this a better football team.

Also, we're talking about Adam Gase and the Jets. They'll give him away for peanuts. Getting ass ****ed on personnel moves is what they do.

Urc Burry 10-29-2019 10:13 AM

I’m not good at this. But wouldn’t the jets still have to pay the guaranteed portion of the contract? Or am I getting that wrong. Because if so, he is a bargain

Not that it's realistic, but could you ****ing imagine:

Mahomes
Bell / Shady / Dam. Will / Dar. Will / Thompson
Hill / Watkins / Hardman / D Rob / Pringle
Kelce


(side note, we still need a TE #2 / TE OTF)

Mecca 10-29-2019 10:14 AM

The Chiefs could pull that if they add more of his money into this year actually......

You'd have to think they'd like the idea of giving him to KC to (try) and **** the Patriots.
