Don't think I have seen this idea floated. What about a trade with Seattle? Bell for Earl Thomas? Both players disgruntled with current team....
Jets interested in Bell. Oh, and this isn't reported by Rapoport, Glenn ;)...
It's really not clear what needs to take place for Bell to be traded. Kaboly says here that there is no guarantee he would show up for whatever...
Maybe thats the problem? I look around the league and I see two legit defenses right now. Jax and Chicago. Really only Jax, lets see Chicago do it...
Where did I say he's the man? I'm not a fan and he certainly has his share of reporting incorrect information but I doubt this is one of those...
Teams are contacting them. [MEDIA]
So they don’t have to contend with 20 other teams throwing ridiculous contracts at him. A team that trades for him now gets first crack at him....
If the Steelers manage to pull off a trade this season, then whomever acquires him will have a window to sign him long term before FA starts....
Interesting. I don't care how they do it, they are looking to trade him and I hope they are able to find a team that wants him.
I never hated NOD. He's not the first athlete to have a bad SB. Hell, Ben was pretty bad against Seattle, they were just fortunate Seattle was no...

Oh, so the Steelers are open to trading Bell but they don't realize they can't. Got it. So lucky we have you to explain this to everyone.
Being under contract and controlling a players rights are two different things. The Steelers control Bells rights because they put the tag on him....
They own his rights. Now go smack yourself. Hard.
They own him because they tagged him. They can trade his rights to another team. in which case, that team now deals with the knuckle head.
Wondered the same thing. KC seems like a juggernaut right now.
Steelers own the rights to Bell by placing the tag on him. They absolutely can trade him. A team that acquires him can increase the amount of...
She actually talked about it in an 2011 interview. And really, if you are trying to sell books, you’re going to use Ben to do it? Anyway, who...
So glad to see this! I was hoping they’d try to unload him. If they get a first, I’ll be ecstatic.
