But with Conner if they can be 85% of what they'd be with Bell at 1/10 the cost they're better off. Bell's money should be spent on defense.

People saying Conner could replace Bell after week 1 were like the people who thought McCarron could replace Andy after a limited sample size.They were behind 21-nil in the first quarter and were taken out of their gameplan. Ben had 60 attempts, so Im not too concerned about his yardage.
Bell is the type of guy you need to game plan to stop. Conner is a guy who will get yards because teams are game planning to stop Brown and Juju.
The first game last year against Cleveland, Bell only had 32 yards.
