Message: <blockquote data-quote="HardRightEdge" data-source="post: 850469">Ah, the reporter judiciously stated that the Jets "talked to several teams" about a trade.  That could be, "Hey, Packers, you interested?"  When the admin assistant says, "Mr. Gutekunst, I have Joe Douglas [the Jet's GM] on the line," do you think he says, "Take a message--I'm not talking to him because he might try to trade me Le'Veon Bell."  Taking a call is not interest, if that even happened.Note that it is Bell himself who is quoted as saying the Packers were interested.So, do you think Le'Veon Bell isn't just self-promoting, or his agent stretched the truth to make him feel good, or your presumably informed understanding of the situation?  You should give yourself more credit.  If you did, you wouldn't bother posting this.As for the redundancy of adding Bell to Williams and Jones, the Jets may have wanted Jones as part of the package.  Problem solved!  <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/whistling.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":whistling:" title="Whistling    :whistling:" data-shortname=":whistling:" />I wouldn't trade Jones straight up for Bell even if their money was the same.  Bell was a high mileage back to start with, the best argument for him being the year of R&R might have added a year or two to his career.  That isn't happening.</blockquote>
