Seattle doesn't have the cap room unless they decide to start trimming a lot of players.

San Fran I believe has the most cap room at the moment (granted that will take some hit with Jimmy G.) and they could really use a RB so I wouldn't be surprised if they pull the trigger.

The way Shanahan dissed the idea of drafting Barkley, it makes me wonder if they would even take Bell seriously. I don't think he's into paying RB's anything near what Bell wants.

Pretty sure it won't be the Steelers.

I'll pick San Fran or Seattle

W/out having good talent on the Hawks OL right now, I don't want to pay a player like Bell to not be as productive as his contract would need him to be... He wouldn't be as productive as he is now behind the Seahawks OL... I don't believe he'd be the right fit in Seattle either...

I'm 65% it won't be in PIT....100% if he still wants $15 mil per x 5 yrs.

SF, CLE, IND, NYJ, TB, MIN, HOU, TN, WAS, DET.

Those are your top 10 teams in cap space available. Not a bad place to start your search.

Eliminate MIN, HOU, and TN. WAS has to figure out a QB. Would DET try to entice the Mich St product? Maybe.

The team that jumps off the page to me is TB. You never know from yr to yr, but NO (w/ Brees), ATL, and CAR are all better teams. They need that anchor and Bell would also be a draw down there.

Would be nice but not a whole lot of cap space.

Trade Bennett for picks and bam. Cap clearance

Not sure any team should be that motivated to pay him what he will want unless you're really bad and can just write off the expense for the first two years.
Like a scenario where the Colts lose Andrew Luck and draft a young QB maybe?

Where will Bell end up? Shit I don't know. Nobody does. But to take a wild (and incorrect) guess I'll say in the CFL w/ whichever team Johnny outta Football ends up with.

An Aaron Rodgers passing game set up by Bell’s ground game would be incredible.

...if you don't want to do the math. Bennett only has a cap # of approx $10M for 2018. Seattle has about $15M in cap space...without signing any of their 15 free agents, including Graham, Joeckel, Richardson, Willson, Shead, Walsh, etc. $25M isn't enough when Bell is going to want most of that (made $12.2M last year, franchise tag will mean $14.5M this year).
