Antonio Brown Has Been Traded to the Raiders

[Ojb81]

Pitt took what they could get, which wasn't much. Many teams value locker room unity quite a bit right now. Maybe too much, but we'll see. The Colts need a WR bad, but Ballard has said that he is not wanting to bring in a devising attitude.

*divisive

Have to disagree. I wanted no part of AB ca$hing in one last time and mailing it in for the fat part of his career for garbage yards on a crappy team. Lots of Steeler WRs go from looking all-pro to mediocre after not playing with Ben.

The 49ers need to act like a rebuilding team, not like the Rams circa 2018. 2019 will be a throw-away season, so the team needs young talent, not aging, malcontent whiners.

An established team could have used him, but he couldn't have helped the Niners IMO.

I just hate all the big talk followed by no action by the front office. I'm getting to old to "wait for next year".
#1s don't come along every year and that is exactly what this offense needs.

@TrustMeIamRight you ignored, on purpose im sure, my direct question to you regarding OBJ.

Didn’t realize I had not responded to that. I typed it out yesterday, but got sidetracked with a sick kid.

OBJ’s case is simple — he has played 16 games once in 5 years. He has missed the equivalent of 1 1/2 seasons in just 5 years.

NYG would deal him if someone offered them a king’s ransom, but they aren’t going to give him away (like Pitt did with Brown). But NFL teams see the same risk with OBJ that anyone with two eyes has — great talent, but can’t stay healthy. (Hamstring injury, quad injury, ankle injury, ankle surgery, etc)

The Brown situation shows us just how much teams are willing to lean away from "distractions". Kaep should take notice.

Yet you hve a guy flat refusing to report, and play. Not the same as an injury, but the premise of not playing remains the same

Lol no U didn’t

It is two ends of the spectrum — Antonio Brown rarely ever misses a game and has put up an average of roughly 110 catches, 1500 yards and 10+ tds the past 6 years.

OBJ is great, but when you miss 1 1/2 years worth of games in 5 seasons — teams aren’t lining up to pay his type of contract.

Ryan Clark correctly predicted how AB would act once you gave him his money. This was long before any alleged riff between him and Big Ben.

Does anyone really think that he is now gonna change that behavior after what he pulled and getting more money?

 

[Montalban]

Wow! The Raiders did really well. They gave up Amari Cooper and a 3rd and 5th round pick for Antonio Brown and a 1st round pick? Steal of the year in my opinion.

 

[jarntt]

Another Brown to Oak. Is it just me or does Trent Brown look like he is 11 years old???

Trent Brown - Oakland Raiders - NFL

 

[Myles]

Lol no U didn’t

Yep.
Brown brings just a risk of a few distractions and top level talent. Kaep brings medium talent and shit loads of distractions. It's no wonder he's not on a team.

Blackballed. Sorry I had to, just once

 

[eaglesnut]

That's intelligent, though. You shouldn't pay top shelf money to WR's or RB's

And shouldn't have an offense, I guess.

Just wait until Juju proves he's worth 20 million per. The Steelers will cry about it instead of being happy that he's such a good player.

 

[eaglesnut]

eagles troll is a troll

I've been very consistent.
I explained how this would all happen.
And here it is happening.

The Steelers made their own bed here.
Don't shoot the messenger.

You actually haven’t explained much besides quoting your own points of view. When questioned you generally don’t reply, or have any counter argument. I wouldn’t be touring yourself. You certainly are entitled to your opinion. But you aren’t some
Prognosticator or even right for that matter

the steelers pay fair contracts, and they were MORE than fair with Antonio, TWICE.

so, what, you justify his behavior because you think the Steelers weren't paying him enough? get the fuck out of here with that nonsense

Yeah they won a lot of SB's with AB That bitch quit on his team and thought he was above everyone, if I was a Pitt Fan, would say good riddance also
