    Why is L Bell so low on Dynasty Rankings (#15)?

    I know you love M Ball, who you have ranked #6, but how does Bell's production not match/surpass what Ball has done or will do?

    I own Spiller with Bell, and view Bell as my #1 RB.  You have Spiller ranked #7.  There is no "if" window in fantasy, IMO, and we are still saying "if" when it comes to Spiller...

    Ben Tate doesn't even have a team yet (I own him as well), and he is ranked 4 spots higher than L Bell...

    Am I the only one that sees L Bell as Top 10 RB, somewhere between 7-10?
    12 Team PPR Dynasty

    QB, 2RB, 3WR, TE

    Luck, Cutler
    Spiller, L Bell, Ridley, Michael, Tate, K Davis
    Calvin, AJ Green, Marshall, Britt, M Brown
    Gronk, Cameron
    1.1, 1.7

    I agree that Bell deserves a bump in the dynasty rankings for sure.  I still like where Spiller is in the rankings but think Ball is too high.  Tate landing in CLE keeps him right where he's at IMO.

    I also agree with this. I think Leveon is a top 10 RB. He's a 3 down RB and that is endangered species right now.
    QB - RG3,Cutler, Osweiler, Keenum
    RB - McCoy, LeVeon Bell, Moreno, Lamar Miller, Bryce Brown, K Hunter, Denard
    WR - Torrey, TY Hilton, Hartline, K Thompkins, Royal, Givens
    TE - Clay, Dwayne Allen
    K - Prater

    yeah, he deserves a little bump, I agree, but if Tate is in CLE end of day, he wont move ahead of him.

    Spiller will be bumped a spot or two at least, I'm starting to push trade ideas around Spiller at his max value. I'll do a rankings update tonight or tomorrow, i am just letting FA shake out a bit more so I'm not clearing it all out in 5 hours from now :) Good question.

    I agree in most ranks Bell should be ranked above Bell, Ball and perhaps even Spiller. Smittys ranks seem to be based on upside mostly and I do agree that Ball and Tate have more upside then Bell which is likely why they are higher. Im just guessing here though. Personally Bell would be just outside my top 10, but I dont ever see him as being anything more then an RB2.

    I own Ball in DC 1...I really like Ball going forward. If I was offered Bell for Ball I couldnt hit accept fast enough though.

    i think martin should jump to 9 and bell to morris spot..i disagree with bell above ball but that is arguable...beside ball who do you move him ahead of? to make top 10 no one in my book..not that i dislike bell just tough to get inside top 10 ..maybe we should move TR to the 15 spot to lol..since for some reason he makes a comeback from the dead which i seen no one explain that..

    Bell still isn't as high as some of you may want, but look at the dollar values on the top 300 to the right, some are tied, someone has to rank ahead, but look at the $

    What's with all the Bell love? He was underwhelming last season. So was Ball, but I like Ball a lot more.

    860/8 with 45 catches for 400 yards is pretty good for a rookie...and he was out the 1st 3 weeks too so thats in 13 games.

    as a very productive, rare 3-down rb as a took , and that behind a poor line, IMO bell has elite production potential in his near future. c'mon steelers, beef up that offensive line!

    I like him, but yeah, I just can't pull him higher. I seem to be going against the grain, but I just see the other runners as better options. Tate included.

    I'll take the guy that the coach is fully committed to and is a 3 down back every day of the week over a guy who's position is tenuous or is in a time share that is anything less than a guy spelling him when he needs a breather.....   JMO.
