Here is your problem — he has a 21 million dollar cap hit still, so trading him now provided Pitt with no relief to go improve the defense.
And a 3rd and 5th round pick isn’t going to change anything in that regard, right now.
I always looked at Pitt as a well oiled machine with a great front office. But the way Bell and Brown have been handled, it makes them look terrible.
Basically they had one of the best RB’s and one of the best WR’s and in losing both, a 3rd round pick is all they got. That’s terrible.
The people that keep bringing up Bell are in the dark apparently....that was the CBA playing itself out...Bell just decided he didn't want the money....tagging a RB in the 1st place...if that's your angle...I agree.
I agree they look terrible.
Understand...Bell was a 2nd round pick, and Brown was a 6th iirc.
