C'mon man - this is just silly. Bell's not going to simply give the money back and there is no way in the world you can justify further spreading it out for a RB that's clearly in decline.
Once again - if the Jets want to extend him with a fake 5th season on that deal and call his 2020 salary a signing bonus that will accelerate onto their cap, then replace that 2020 salary with just enough of a carrot to get him to play hard the remainder of the year - then I'd listen and consider throwing a 5th their way.
But that contract is Frank Clark bad. There's no way anyone should voluntarily put that on their books.

I mean, the seasons after 2020 don't really matter what he's supposed to make, once the guaranteed money is gone.
If the Jets would take on some of that somehow, I'd do it.
