What Are The Chances Le'Veon Bell Is Not A Steeler Next Year?

[Yo Tee]

I know what many Steelers fans think of Le'Veon Bell. What he's done this year has not been good for him or the team. It caused a distraction that wasn't needed. He disrespected the team and the fans. However, I believe that he is a talent that we should NOT give up cheaply. I don't have confidence in Conner, as I've been very vocal about, or any of our current RBs and with our position in the draft and the RB talent in the draft to replace Bell, not even 85%. I'd also rather block for him than try and play defense against him. FA RBs are pretty slim as well.

With that said, in your opinion, what are the chances Bell and the Steelers get a long-term contract?

I'll go with Ewa...50/50.

I don't put much stock in his social media posts aside from they are mostly positive.

Me in early January: 50/50
Me today: 70/30


There has been nothing in the media to date that makes me think he'll be playing anywhere but Pittsburgh next season. Steelers seem to be miles ahead of where they were this time last season with Bell. They seem a lot more intent on getting a deal done. Just boils down to whether or not they can come up with the money or not, and at what expense.

75% he will, 25% he won't.

I'm sure he's either playing in Pittsburgh next season or sitting. I'm giving it 50% he plays and 50% he sits right now. But that can change at any moment.
