IF we are to pick up a rb: KAHLIL BELL

[patsfan55]

I for one am fine going into the season with Ridley-Vereen-Woodhead as our backs. But, if we are really going to go out there and sign someone, I'd love that someone to be Kahlil Bell. He was not tendered at the 2nd round level, so we wouldn't have to give up any draft picks. Yes, the bears would have last right of refusal, but the fact that they just got Michael Bush, and the fact they weren't willing to pay an extra $700k to slap the 2nd round tender on Bell means he could probably be had pretty cheap withouth them matching. The guy looked outstanding when Forte and Barbarian went down. Now, I'm not saying give him a lot of money at all. But, as a lot of you are clamoring for us to grab someone, how bout a cheap solid alternative in Bell. We could probably get him at 3 years for 5M, or 1 year for 2M.

I really really hate fumbles.

Haven't seen much of him. I personally like Maurice Morris and Justin Forsett, not sure how much either would cost

I liked Morris in his day, but the guy is like 59 yrs young
Forsett looked great a couple years ago, but does he bring anything to the table Woody already doesn't?

Bell looked like a legit 1b type runner last year. I'm actually very high on both Ridley and Vereen. But, chances are maybe one of the two truly pans out. You pair that one with Bell, and you've got a great 1-2 punch.
