    I really like Derrick Henry but Bell no doubt is an upgrade...Him and Lewis is very scary to imagine. I think Steelers would pull the trigger for Henry and say a 4th rd pick.
    With Delanie out for the season we still need another pass catching threat. This offense is tailor made for a guy like bell. Not even worried about paying him at the end of the season. Just need him for this season to vie for a top seed. Right now we're 3rd in the AFC...1 game behind KC and 1/2 game behind Miami. Let's put all our eggs in the basket and go after a premier back.

    no

    leveon cant sign a new contract until he hits FA even if traded. it'd be like throwing picks/players away

    Offensive coordinator LaFleur would love it, similar to Gurley.

    I'd be all for it. Henry is cool but he ain't Bell.

    He would definitely be an upgrade to Henry but I don't see J Rob giving up a 2nd round pick and Henry when he's had suspensions and injuries. Him and Lewis in the backfield would be a sight to see though.

    agree, that's why I say a 4th...I think a deal like that would trump anything anyone else would/could offer.

    not worried about the contract. If he walks he walks...the idea is we are at a place where our picks are about quality not quantity...we had 4 picks this past draft and 3 out of 4 of them have been contributors so far this season - dane caught TD pass, evans coming to form, Landry looks like a stud w/ 1 sack 1 FF.
    Henry may not be our back of the future and would you give a 4th rd pick at the chance of going to the Super bowl? Because with how we played last week if we have any consistency and health going down the stretch we have a legitimate chance of getting there. Leveon improves those chances drastically. He's better than Murray has ever been for us. He's great.

    My gut feeling is that Bell comes back and he'll get a "groin" or "hammy" two games later if things don't go his way.

    Steeler Nation is already angry. If he comes back and isn't productive, it will get ugly.
