Questions about what hurt his value
Did Bell hurt his own value? Was it dumb for him to sit out or just dumb to not take the Steelers deal?
Bell’s injury history, suspensions for marijuana use, year-long absence, maverick agent (Bakari), diversified interests, weight concerns, lack of breakaway speed and ill-advised social-media activity.
Or was it simply that Todd Gurley received 45 million guaranteed and rushed for exactly 45 yards for the NFC championship and Super Bowl?
