I do think Bell was the one that got away... but Battle is starting to look like a real winner as 3rd round pick
I mean I think we could have, but it was going to hamstring us somewhere. One thing is certain, he was as good as he thought he was here.
And I agree, we should not have let Bell get away. I think he would have had a big impact on our defense still and would have been the perfect person to train Battle.
