LeVeon Bell considering retiring
LeVeon Bell considering retiring
Le'Veon Bell would consider sitting out, retiring if franchise tagged again
https://www.thescore.com/nfl/news/1465405
He really wants a nice contract, threatening to sit for 18 and that will likely lead to retirement.

Re: LeVeon Bell considering retiring
I highly doubt he retires. Probably a ploy by his agent to get a better deal. I could see him walk and sign with a different team though.

Re: LeVeon Bell considering retiring
Surely posturing. But it's always something with this guy. Is there any player that has such a combo of on field brilliance and off field shenanigans?
Well, at least he has his rap career to fall back on.

Re: LeVeon Bell considering retiring
The fantasy community would be in quite the uproar if he actually stuck to his guns and sat out/retired. So many championship rosters would be scrambling for a new starting RB. Would you sell him for pennies on the dollar to try and recoup value while he still has some? Would you hold on for a lost season and hope he comes back in 2019?
Re: LeVeon Bell considering retiring
If he sits I'd 100% hold him, if people held Josh Gordon this long or Calvin for a year or two after he retired, LeVeon Bell at 28 should be held for a few years into retirementIBall2 wrote: ↑Thu Jan 11, 2018 3:24 pm The fantasy community would be in quite the uproar if he actually stuck to his guns and sat out/retired.

Re: LeVeon Bell considering retiring
I usually look at it if a guy has an issue with $10mil+, even in the short term, he cannot afford to retire (in his mind, or bad with money). A lot of posturing of course and in reality he probably could retire and be financially stable (assumption somewhat). Since I can easily out-rap him even after I have downed a liter of Jack Daniels, there is no way that is even an option. Though, with rap nowadays, his skills are really not that far off, and he is god awful. I would hold and am in the once place I have him, which is a total rebuild. Even with a decent demand on him, the offers I get make no sense.

Re: LeVeon Bell considering retiring
Lynch was making 10-12 with the Hawks I think. Ray rice made good money in '13.
Seems like coaching and QB play is #1 priority, then a all star defense is a close second
Pats
Hawks
Colts with manning
Ravens when joe flacco proved he was elite
Packers
Saints
