We offered Bell $7.5 mil/year but he and his agent weren’t interested thinking they could get more on the open market. They were wrong.

Let's recap ...

So the Saints offered a solid contract to Vonn, he or his agent dragged their feet or whatever. Ended up getting less money to play for that team? A perennial dumpster fire organization?
