Marcus Bell

[Number 10]

We just signed former Lions DT Marcus Bell, anything you could tell me about him?

[detroit4life]

well he got cut because he didnt want to work all that hard for marinelli i believe but overall he's a decent player nothing to blow u away

[asmitty45]

hes a solid rotational DT, addresses one of your needs so you should be happy about this signing

[Number 10]

Anything about his strength and weaknesses? A good run defender I'm assuming?

[Notredameleo]

Good but not great player, poor attitude.

[Number 10]

Does he clog running lanes? Take on double teams? Able to control two gap responsibilites?

[Notredameleo]

Hes a big guy who will take up space, so he can clog a lane. I have no idea if he would be able to handle the two gap, but i would think so.

[scottyboy]

can he push back a center or guard (pass rushing) so that teams dont double osi/strahan?

[WMD]

If you don't like Rod Marinelli, why would you sign on to play for Tom Coughlin?

[detroit4life]

yea i was kinda surprised since these coaches have similar morals when it comes to hard work

[Notredameleo]

That is a really good question, b/c you know that its hitler then Coughlin, so who knows why he signed with them!!

[detroit4life]

mayb he didnt get any other offers

[LionSmack]

It's really hard to say exactly what Bell's big strengths or weaknesses were, because honestly I can barely remember noticing him at all. He's pretty big and takes up space, I guess, but I can't think of any great plays he ever made here. He was the 4th DT here, and on this team if you can't get higher than #4 on the depth chart, you're pretty bad.
