Is it fair yet to check in on Leveon Bell

[Scott Dierking]

Now that he is in an offense where they will know how to utilize his skills?

Only the Jets can ruin a 28 year old running back.

[Jetscode1]

Macc, the gift that keeps on giving.

[ScarletKnight89]

He's basically operating as the number 2 back in KC.

I watched him against Tampa and thought he looked ok. But it looks like his burst is gone. He's not the same player he was in Pitt. 

[BurnleyJet]

Confirmed he’s half the player he was, a 3rd down back now. More Maccagnan magic..

Kind of how he looked here.

One thing about that Pittsburgh organization; they sure do know when someone is finished and when the time has come to cut bait. Neil O'Donnell comes off a Super Bowl and goes to The Jets and he ends up looking and playing like Al Woodall. Lev Bell leaves the Steelers b/c of $$ and signs with the Jets holding the best TPC average IN THE HISTORY OF THE GAME,  Then he takes a year off and with fresh legs and a fresh body comes here and turns into an old man. How does that happen to the Jets time and time again?

Could you imagine the Steelers brass discussing the Jets contract for Bell? There is a reason that team keeps reemerging time & again & are now 10-0. No one drafts better WRs, or LBs, Edge, and they always have a tough minded Oline. 

I wanted TJ Watt just for his pedigree. Many here wanted Claypool though I think Mims will be very good. 

Trumaine Johnson, Le'veon Bell, CJ Mosely, this f*cking Macster had his hands in on the 3 biggest free agent busts of the last 5 years! Crazy!

I don't think I can ever take a chance on a football player that has taken a year off. Especially for big money.

It is why I have extreme worries about how Moseley comes back next year.

It's basically going to have been two years for Mosley by the start of next season. They'll do whatever to minimize the financial hit but I doubt he sees the field for the Jets again.

The guy was here for a cup of coffee. Who gives a ?

Actually for the most part CJ has taken two years off not one. So stop worrying friend.

Imagining what Mosley will look like after basically 2 years off. He might not even resemble a football player

[sec101row23]

I’m not sure why people thought that Bell would all of sudden become faster, quicker and more agile simply by playing in KC.

I agree. Mac was only here for the coffee.

[rangerous]

yep, bell isn't doing any better.  kind of exonerates gase for bell's lack of performance.  it also puts all of that talk about his hamstring to rest.  

[Jet Nut]

Mahomes gives the ball to Bell, Bell pauses, lurches to the line, gains 2-3 yards and Jim Nance says, "look at Bell and that relaxed style of attacking the line.  Just an embarrassment of riches for KC, Bell just didnt work out with Jets for some reason"

Not so sure.  I guys Im not convinced that Bells situation isnt just a combo of age, over use and the desire being gone after the year off.  I dont see why guys can lose 2 years to injury and come back but a relatively minor injury that you cant play through like an abdominal injury and the opt out will leave him useless to the Jets.

Stick a fork in Mosely.  I do not expect his return and even if he does he'll be a shell of himself.

I thought he was here to play bowling for dollars. ?

[SAR I]

Adam Gase was right.

Just like he was with every other Jet we have released or traded.

[heymangold]

This is gonna be the case with Mosely too.  Obviously you can’t just sit out a year, come back and be the same player you were before.

They guy was a HUGE part of what Macc  considered his rebuild. That money could have been spent in a lot of other areas and resources. Think about it, he gave huge money to a RB (with a year off) and a MILB.

We should all care.

[RoadFan]

I'm his biggest fan.  Bell is done.

There was a pretty unanimous consensus that this was the best pickup we made in years . It didn't  work and he is now gone.

[playtowinthegame]

They're saving him for the playoffs.

Playoff Bell has a lot of potential.

Unanimous by whom?

I admit that i was intrigued, but big $$$$ on a RB? Who does that? Especially for one with a year layoff.

Seriously?  Unanimous?  I don’t recall that at all.

He has to.  The cap hit to cut him is insane.

Per overthecap.com it is a 20 million dollar dead cap space hit, resulting in 8 million dollar higher cap hit for 2021.

It isn't a whole lot better for 2021, as that results in a 12.5 dead cap hit and only 5 million in savings.

I'm going to disagree there.   He is gone, but still counts as 4 million for next years caps plus the hit for this year.
