ACL injury recovery timeline clouds Year 1 outlook; better dynasty hold than redraft.

Rookie season outlook is heavily tied to recovery timeline after suffering an ACL injury late in 2025. The former Louisville standout brings legitimate alpha traits and was one of college football's premier target earners before getting hurt. Miami offers a strong long-term landing spot given the lack of pass-catching depth and can afford to be patient, potentially setting Bell up for a larger role once healthy in an offense lacking long-term answers at receiver. He's a better dynasty investment than immediate redraft target, though his upside remains appealing if he returns to full strength quickly.
