If they make that trade i'm assuming AB is okay with it. No way Buffalo(or any team) gives up assets for a guy that isn't going to be happy. Steelers and their fans can pretend all they want that the Steelers hold all the cards, but they really don't.
It would be hilarious to see Buffalo turn around and flip Brown to the AFC North

Guess not...

Bills GM Brandon Beane confirmed as much, stating the team "inquired about Antonio Brown on Tuesday...but ultimately it didn’t make sense for either side. As great a player as Antonio Brown is, [the Bills] have moved on and our focus is on free agency.


My translation? " we called Antonio, he told us to go get effed"

I agree with this and frankly I dont blame him. Allen, while young, is not accurate at all and it wouldnt make any sense for Brown.

Zeitler to giants for Vernon to browns


Looks like both teams dumping bad salaries - seems like a situation where we see both of these guys become cap causalities for new teams, saving their old teams some dead cap space money

**not an NFL Cap expert, but I think the Rams and Jets did this with their shitty OL guys about 10yrs ago. Traded bad contracts to each other, then cut the players (Brown from Baylor was the rams guy, can't remember who the jets sent). Since they were cut by new teams and not the ones that they originally signed with, there wasn't big dead cap $s for cutting them.

Another quality name on the RB free agent list. There might not be any "ideal" landing spots for the incoming rooks

Not sure but suspect you are being sarcastic with that - - - seems he's a step above (or below) that other guy on your sh!t list. .......

Ha, no Hyde's never been on my list. Is he a great RB? No, but he's better than average a d can do some exciting things on occasion. He's definitely good enough to throw a wrench into a situation

Guess I was thinking of someone else - but just made a incorrect assumption since you are not shy about your likes and dislikes. ..... think things will start to move pretty quickly once Brown and Bell find a home. Quite a few lower tier guys waiting around. ... some that haven't even been mentioned yet.

Was probably something from last years draft when Chubb landed alongside Hyde in Cleveland. I did/do feel Chubb is/was superior and should shove him to the side. But that was more thinking Chubb was that good, than thinking Hyde was bad, ya know?

How you feel about Brown landing on the Raiders? Starting to look like that might be where he lands.

You fell victim to one of the classic blunders.

If he wouldn't go to the Bills because they aren't contenders, I don't see the Raiders being any closer.
Especially having to leap over the Chiefs and Chargers and even an improved Broncos team.

I don't want Brown. I do want Saffold.

Joe - that was my thoughts when I first heard it as well - but at least the weather is better. .... I guess the saga will continue since nothing happened before the so-called 'deadline'. ....

I never really considered it possibility, and after the Bills fiasco, just further confirmation that it wouldn't happen.

Brown is delusional, like to the point someone should be concerned for his mental health. What he wants, thinks he deserves, and the real world do no co-exist
