They seemed to think that Perine was a lock, but he believed Payton's BS and wound up in Denver. I don't think they expected Bell to find a market. Rapien and Dehner both mentioned that Bell was offered a 2 year deal and they wouldn't budge off of it, even when they were told Carolina was offering him a 3 year deal.

I'm hoping the Bell saga taught them something. 

Yep. Sometimes you have to go out of your comfort zone a little to keep a player you really want.
