Bell has a role, new celebration for Lions

Classy guy; hope he and the Lions have much success

Bell always had confidence. He was always ready. Had to be. Bell never doubted his ability or that eventually he would find a role with an NFL team. His stop in New Orleans is what really gave him the belief it would work out somewhere, somehow.

Bell said Saints coach Sean Payton told him, when he released him, they kept him on the roster because he played well enough they felt they had to.

WR's leave New Orleans... don't do as well
OL's leave New Orleans... don't do as well
RB's leave New Orleans... seem to do better.

"Bell said Saints coach Sean Payton told him, when he released him, they kept him on the roster because he played well enough they felt they had to."

OR

"We kept you on the roster because you played well enough and we felt we had to and we're letting you go."

It's already happening ... after Bush went out with a knee, JB was the sole running back the rest of the way ... I was surprised, they have so much confidence in him they sat Mikel Leshoure & are considering trading him (leshoure). Bell played his college ball right here at Wayne State (Div II) and actually worked as a security guard at the Lions Allen Park training facility ... he's not as flashy or fast as a 'reggie bush', but dang-it, he's a blue-collar runner, gets the job done and doesn't get hurt.

I was pleased-as-punch when Detroit got him & it just gets better,

Yeah, Lions/Saints should be working on some sort of revolving player swap ... Detroit sends defensive lineman and New Orleans sends running backs,
