Bell to re-sign today per J.P on twitter

[El Chingon]

Good. We need him.

[JJman]

Because any time you get a chance to resign a mediocre, penalty prone tackle that went undrafted out of New Mexico you have to jump right on it.

How many penalties did he have this past season?

No one knows if Bell can play LT.

 

Breno Giacomini sounds exactly like a G-man move.  Best talent for the money we'd spend.  We're not paying (and don't have) elite money.  So, we're not going after elite players but I love the idea of finding very good players and wrapping them up for 4 years or so.  I say if we can get him a deal paying between 3-4 million a year we'd be aces.

Hurney snuck in and gave Bell a 5 yr contract worth around $11M a year.

There's nothing to indicate Giacomini is good, let alone very good.

He's a lot better then Bell, who is garbage. (he's improved from hot garbage though)  Plus Giacomini is nasty and has a mean streak a mile long. 

 

Sadly Bell is back as he was tendered, for what reason I have no idea. He's not worth $1, much less what ever he got on his tender.

I say he's an Italian version of Bell, but not any better. You have something to suggest otherwise? I'd love to see it.

[neverlosethefeeling]

Bell cant play LT.  Wharton will say on the left side and could possibly fill-in at LT ... but I hope that is not the plan. 

 

How do you know Bell can't play LT?

Amini Silatolu is our LG assuming he's made a full recovery and doesn't have a setback next season.

[Mvp2014]

Wheewwwww. Those quick nimble feet will be great at LT

 

 

 

wait..

Panthers gave Byron Bell a 2nd-round tender ($2.187M), per source. Panthers would get 2d-rd pick as compensation if Bell signs elsewhere.

 

[Kuech the Sneak]

So...much...money

[Dex]

Bell is an average right tackle. I don't know why he gets so much hate around here. Could we stand to upgrade? Sure. But we could do a lot worse than Byron Bell.

Third stage. Bargaining.

[MHS831]

sometimes the answer is on your roster.

 

this would not be one of those times.

 

Bell is the answer to the Left  Tackle question.

 

 

 

If the damn question is, "Who will suck at left tackle?"
