If he stays healthy this year, no way he doesn't go back to the Steelers. They will offer him stupid money.
Would still rather go after Freeman, honestly. Going to turn 26 next season, in his prime, not as great as Bell as an all-around RB, but still fucking great and can get even better. As I mentioned before, only has missed 1 game in his career. If Crow is gone (which I actually think Crow is going to do pretty good this year. His receiving out of the backfield got a lot better last season - doubled his receptions - but his rushing yards shouldn't be taken too crazy since 150 of them were against Pitt's ball boys. Most likely would have ended with ~850-70yds, which isn't bad) I push for Freeman and tell him, which he is desiring, you are the #1, no doubt.
But if we could somehow land Bell and he stays healthy this year and plays every game, wow.
But let's not get all Studio 34 right now and thinking we should be getting everyone and when we don't, it's all doom & gloom. We are still a team that is mainly building through the draft.
I would be just as happy to draft Barkley or Guice and spending the $$$ on secondary, WR, OT (how does Shon/Erving play out?)
