Gurley........279 / 1,305 yds..........4.7..............64 / 788............12.3................19
Gurley got more yds with less touches in rushing and receiving and 8 more TD's last season.
Gurley is also is 2 years younger at 24 with less mileage on his legs. Plus comes with much less baggage.
Those are all very fair points. However, I guarantee that part of Bell's side is he puts up more yards and more TD's than Antonio Brown so he should make more money than Brown. I remember a quote from him saying the Steelers want to pay the position, not the player.
