Jets agreed to terms with RB Le'Veon Bell, formerly of the Steelers, on a four-year, $52.5 million contract. Finally. Bell was greeted with a cold market, and all along it appeared to be the Jets bidding against themselves. There were rumors of the Bills, Bears, Chiefs, Eagles, Bucs, Packers, Ravens, and Raiders at various times being linked to Bell, but none of them seemed all that serious at Bell's asking price. The Jets always made the most sense as a team with a boatload of cap space and in need of some playmaking help to supplement Sam Darnold. It's a nice landing spot for Bell to return to RB1 form in fantasy. The Jets acquired top-notch LG Kelechi Osemele from the Raiders earlier in the week to help in the blocking department. At $13.125 million per year, Bell slides in between Todd Gurley and David Johnson as the league's second-highest paid back.
