While Bell wouldn't be able to sign a new deal with another team until after the 2018 season, he could get a new deal in place to be signed before free agency hits.
If the Steelers hold onto Bell and he signs a free agent deal with another team the Steelers would likely already be awarded the highest compensation which would be a third rounder. Teams would have to at least give the Steelers that much to perk their interest.
