Hold out running back Le’Veon Bell’s agent Adisa Bakari joined Sirius XM NFL Radio to discuss his clients situation. You can listen to the audio below. When will Le'Veon Bell report to the #Steelers?

One in a generation. **** Bell and his agent.

Bell will be no use to the Steelers this year.

And what is even worse is you can't trade his *** until he signs.

Watch he comes back after the time, he can sign and trade.

**** him.
 
When is the trade deadline? Curious to see if he signs afterwards.
 
Week 8 is the trade deadline. No team will risk a trade with a player who can leave without being resigned until after the league year. Bell’s already shown he can’t be trusted.

So he might be back week 9 then.
 
I love the Pittsburgh Steelers, not any one player, especially this one. He has a chance to get paid 14 million dollars and win a Super Bowl. It tells me, it's all about the money.

Another Bell thread? I can't take it anymore!



















Sarcasm! Its time to pull the tag, or let him sign and trade him if possible
 
BELL is really lowering his value not just in on field play but also in humanity. It's a Buisness but don't tell me that Buisness can't be done right, with honor and integrity amongst the two parties. BELL knew all along he was going to hold out or was this just a James Harrison revelation. I said this along time ago that in the end BELL would **** over the STEELERS and it's holding true. The APPOLOGISTS along the way, what have you to say now............"crickets". This should have never gotten to here as the GREED of about 2million dollar differential was definately one sided. The excuse of "setting the new bar" for RB pay is ludicrous as BELL has shown many times over it's all about him and **** everyone else. Where does the agent get this "once in a generation" player **** from/?? I just see this player getting WAY more touches than anyone else and yet has a below average gain. Haley had to be to dumb to continue handing off as what about all the other "WEAPONS"? Our new OC will show you that an offense Is comprised of more than ONE player. James Conner and JaySam don't have to be IDEDNTICAL to LevMEon Bell as I hope they are the exact opposit and actually produce with the amount of touches they get. If and when BELL does report, set him and don't PAY the two games allowable by the TAG / CBA. OH and one last thing................BELL is now worried about "run him till his wheels fall off". Where was that concern last year or the year before ???? A lot doesn't make sense from the BELL camp and a whole LOT MAKES perfect sense from the STEELERS camp. two RED HOT POKERS, 1 for the agent and 1 for the other party involved (take a guess)

I dunno DIC do you believe in coincidence ?

I don't, Bell probably got the idea that day Deebo was spouting off..

Whatever the Steelers can do they might want to do it now..

I hear yaz slash and maybe coincidence but BELL's track record isn't an honest one to date. I think your week 9 prediction is accurate but I would want to NOT pay the 2-games if anyway possible. It would be a way to at least get a little jab in where it hurts.

I f Connor and Samuels produce, that will be showing other teams that you don't have to spend the big money on backs and in turn lowering Bell's value.
Up till now, Bell wasn't letting his teammates down in a big way. Now he could be souring teammate relationships.
 
If he chooses to sit out, he will need to report by week 10 in order to accrue 2018 as a season. Otherwise he reverts back to the last tag. He could do that, but knowing he would be traded/released in 2019. But the Steelers would still own his rights.

Karma is a real *****. Let him lose money each week he doesn't sign. Then let him sit a few more weeks with no cash then release him. A 100% proven liability not suitable for a team environment that requires you to count on the guy next to you giving 100%.

No he will be back before week 10. But after the trade deadline.

Knowing how he is acting for some miracle he signs before that trade deadline, I think the Steelers would be wise to get what they can at this point...
 
I am so sick of this *******. And yes, HE IS AN *******! Work a deal with another team for a trade, present it to his agent to have him sign the tender and be gone. I can't stand him.
 
I picked up Conner on my fantasy team this week. This might last a lot longer than we think. And if/when he walks in the door thinking the Steelers will just write him his $900,000 game check when he doesn't practice or come to meetings, think again. A "conduct detrimental to the team" suspension might be right around the corner once he signs his tender.
 
Del, he can be designated as inactive with the league’s exemption rule. They are given two weeks to determine when to activate him to the roster. He won’t get paid unless he is activated.

I agree with del, once his greedy *** shows up, **** him! Deactivate him and don't pay him.

That's what I'd do as soon as he rolls in. Since he doesn't really care about money. What's another 1.7 million poof.
 
1. He has to sign the 1-year contract to get game checks ($900k per game).

2. Once he signs the contract, he is on the hook to follow team rules and league regulations.

3. If he fails to fully "give it his all" or "show up for practices", the team can suspend him for conduct detrimental to the team. That is allowed (although the union will probably sue for his behalf and it could end up in arbitration after the season on who owes what).
