When a report of a Steelers offer of five years and $70 million to running back Le'Veon Bell surfaced on Monday Johnny Hekker Jersey , there was no word of how much of that money was fully guaranteed.

Bell’s agent Adisa Barkari didn’t say in a Tuesday radio interview, but said the total value didn’t matter nearly as much as how much of the contract was fully guaranteed. According to a report from Ian Rapoport of NFL Media, there wasn’t a lot of it guaranteed in the Steelers’ final offer.

Rapoport reports that a $10 million signing bonus was the only fully guaranteed portion of the contract. He adds that Bell stood to make $33 million over the first two years in a “rolling guaranteed structure” and $45 million over the first three years of the deal.

As long as the Steelers don’t rescind the franchise tag, Bell is guaranteed $14.5 million this year by reporting to the team before the first game of the regular season so it’s not hard to understand why he’d be looking for a bigger upfront commitment than the one the Steelers were reportedly ready to make this offseason.

Following a whirlwind opening night in the NFL draft Phillip Gaines Jersey , the Baltimore Ravens can kick back during the second round before getting down to business.

On Day 2 of the draft, the Ravens have two third-round picks: the first one and No. 83 overall.

At least that's how it stands now.

If the first round taught us anything, it's that nothing can be taken for granted when Ozzie Newsome is calling the shots in the draft room.

On Thursday night, Newsome twice traded back before picking South Carolina tight end Hayden Hurst at No. 25.

Then Newsome jumped back into the fray after it seemed the Ravens were done. He swapped his second-round pick Geno Atkins Jersey , a fourth-rounder and a 2019 second-round pick to the Eagles to get No. 32, which garnered Louisville quarterback Lamar Jackson.

So, heading into Friday, the Ravens hope to garner success with the third-round pick they got from Buffalo on Thursday night and No. 83 Dan Skuta Jersey , which Newsome somehow found a way to retain.

Having added a much-needed tight end and his quarterback of the future, Newsome and the Ravens can focus Friday addressing some of their other needs.

A right tackle, a center, a wide receiver and a pass-rushing defensive end are among the priorities.

"We got some really good opportunities T.J. Green Jersey ," said assistant general manager Eric DeCosta, who will take over for Newsome in 2019. "We're in good shape."
