Why does Martavis Bryant & Bell want out of the Steelers so bad? I wouldn't mind taking Bryant for a 5-6 round pick if they need to make room.

After playing on a $12.1 million tag in 2017, Bell's franchise number would be about $14.5 in 2018.

If Bell plays on the tag in back-to-back seasons he'll make $26 million. Rapoport reported that if Bell had signed the long-term offer Pittsburgh pushed in front of him last year, he would have made $30 million over those two years.

Bell is saying he will sit out if the Steelers tag him for a 2nd year in a row.

Bell said he would retire if tagged again.

Bell said he would retire if tagged again.

He said he'd think about it. Stop with the fake news.

Big Ben looks like he will be around for another year.

I think with Bell it's more about wanting a big pay day. Running backs usually only get one chance at free agency with their shelf life and the Franchise tag eliminates that long term payday

I thought I heard him say he thinks he deserves QB type money.
