Cimini tweeted earlier of the possibility the Jets cutting bait with Bell in the offseason.

Why keep him? He's generally not being used, and when he is, he's used completely wrong.

Maybe Gase is doing it on purpose to "prove" he never needed him, since he didn't want him in the first place. I'm sorry, I shouldn't just assume Gase is a petty bitch who would screw over the team because of his own opinions.

Teams that draft well do so no matter where they pick. Teams that draft poorly do so no matter where they pick I want my team to win games and draft well

How is this possible

Bells basically guaranteed a truckload of cash.

He's essentially not cutable or tradeable

are you new to the New York Jets?

Everything is on the table....whether it's stupid or not.

Our ownership is incapable of making smart decisions.

Unless we're going to trade Bell as a cash dump (ie bell and a 5th for a 7th)

I highly doubt teams will be lining up to trade for him

I don't believe this at all

Joe Douglas was given full autonomy on this roster.  During the trade deadline it came out that the only 2 untouchables are Darnold and Q.

I think the offseason is going to be an interesting one.

There was interest in Bell at the trade deadline. Someone will be willing to take him. The only question is the return compensation, which is why they didn't trade him last month. I'd assume, given his lack of use, the Jets asking price will be lower in the offseason since they'll be actively shopping him, rather than just fielding calls.

This organization can't figure out how to use future hall of fame players. So awesome.

Bell at the trading deadline would have been effectively 2 years of Bell for around 15 million total and people probably assumed that Falk was a big part of why he was so ineffective on top of him being a little rusty.

Trading for Bell now would be effectively one year 13.5 million on top of seeing how ineffective he is even when the Jets offense is clicking.

Bells trade value has collapsed immensely since the trade deadline. I think trading Bell for a swap of middle round picks (ie bell and a 5th for a 5th) is best case scenario. And even that is something I'd find unlikely

Why would anyone trade assets and pay almost 14 million for a running back who has shown absolutely ZERO in the running game. He's a highly effective blocker and a very good receiving back. But I would take someone like Bilal as a 1 year rental for effectively the vet minimum instead of trading assets and laying Bell an insane amount of cash for also a 1 year rental (because of his contract Bell is a one year rental)

Is it a conspiracy theory, if it's actually true?
