Bell is too expensive and his replacement is already on the team (Battle).
Hurst is too expensive, although I'd love to have him back. I'm still not giving up on Irv Smith.
Perine is cheap, we literally have no RB2, and his 3rd down blocking/catching out of the backfield duties make him well worth it.
With that logic, you could say perines replacement is already on the team (brown). Neither battle or brown have done enough to warrant giving this team a “late season run”. You think an RB2, who gets 30%ish snap count will be more valuable to the team over a safety playing 100% of the snaps?
FWIW, Perine is the 22nd highest paid RB in the NFL 3.75m, Bell is the 19th highest paid safety at 7m. Their contracts equally reflect their value. If anything Perine is expensive relative to what he is doing.
