Bell works out fir Chiefs

Per D.Gantt. Left without a contract. His first FA tryout after being way under the radar since his departure. He is a good guy and a hard worker, just not starting caliber talent. Best of luck to him in what ever happens with his career.

He'd be fine as a backup somewhere. He's not good but he is probably better than a lot of guys out there filling out the bottom of a roster. He just has no business being a full time starter. I'm actually surprised it took this long for him to get a look.

He might end up back here

 

Pretty sure that bridge is burned and it really is best for parties to move on. However, if he is still without a team in the middle of the season and we suffer a bunch of injuries at Tackle then I wouldn't be shocked if he ended up back here. I would be shocked if he's on the roster at the beginning of training camp though.

He was serviceable on the right side, just could not handle the left tackle position. Very few people can do that job -- fewer than 32 do it every year. Kid is experienced, still coachable and big. He'll find a home sooner or later.

 

He may be one of those that ends up doing better on his second team.

 

I wish him well.

    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
    • Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
