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.

    • lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

    • Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
