    So I looked a little bit deeper into Ballage, not knowing much about him and he seems to be a phenomenal athlete with pretty much zero college or professional experience. His stat line indicates he was likely a backup at Arizona State (spread offense conference) and being 230+ I doubt he was a good fit.

    On a good note, he scored 8 touchdowns in one game in 2016. Otherwise he had 19 in 45 other career games.

    So I have a feeling we're looking to catch him for one 8 touchdown game and then we got our money's worth for a conditional 7th.

    Hi!

    I just wanted to say, on behalf of the Miami Dolphins organization, we will give up a conditional 7th for LeVeon Bell.

    I just don't know how well he fits into Adam Gase's clipboard. I think...honestly...this would be the best thing for all parties involved.

    He couldn't run for 2 yards on average last year. I suppose it was too hopeful to think he'd make it to New York.

    Fournette wants to be the guy. Gase won’t even make Bell the guy. That would be an ugly marriage.
