I want Bates back. Everybody wants Bell for his leadership qualities. Well Bates is younger, better, and has leadership qualities of his own.

I felt like Bell wasn't as impactful later in the season.

Hopefully our secondary makeover isn't too painful. Chiefs beat us in the Championship with I think three rookie DBs playing so there is that.

You're going to have a mixed bag in terms of people wanting Bates back, but most would lean towards keeping him if it was based on talent/position.

The price tag and terms are why when polled, Bell realistically is the winner.

It's not that they don't want him or realize his importance. 

I sure hope we don't lose both!
