    Despite the media criticism of AB, Jarvis Landry has openly recruited AB to come over to Brown town.

    Would you guys like to see AB in a Browns uni, or do we keep what we have and maybe add another young WR in the draft?

    If you do think so, would you trade a 1st rounder to the Squealers for him?

    I think he would immediately make our offense one of the best in the NFL..

    Him and Jarvis as the X, Calloway in the slot.

    But then that leaves Perriman and Higgins on the fence..

      As has been pointed out, AB is a phenomenal player. 

      It’s the locker room issues with him. Not a fit.

        I get that, but it's not like he's TO or Ochocinco..

        I think he's frustrated playing on a team that many would consider to be "over-the-hill"

        an aging Rothlesberger, no LB running the ball, defense not as consistent..

        I think he wants to play with a team that is up-and-coming and in need of some more veteran presence..

        It would be hard for teams to cover him, Landry, Calloway, Njoku, and have to deal with Chubb running the rock.

          So you wanna spend cap room on the guy who’s not as bad as the worst divas

          Of course that would be an amazing line up, but the guy you listed, Callaway, already fits the build to be the next AB.

           WR might have dwindled to one of the less pressing needs this year.

          Don’t forget we don’t know what to expect from Ricardo Louis, who flashed some here and there when he was healthy. And the other guy, Derrick Willies?

            I wanna spend cap room on making this team a playoff and SB contender..

            I don't really think that Ricardo Louis or Derrick Willies fits that mold..

            Callaway is intriguing and is similar in size and speed to AB..

                  The only way to get him....even if you wanted him, would be to trade for him....and several things:   A.  The cost of the trade would be too high. I wouldn't want to give up more than a mid round pick.  B. The Steelers would want a high ransom for him...so that would not fit with what I would be willing to give up.  C.  The Steelers sure as hell would not want to trade him in the division....or if they did...it would be only for and extra bonus cost over and above what they would take from teams in other divisions.  

                  So...the answer is no.....even discounting the fact that his is a selfish, cancerous player.

                    Are you guys serious right now? If we can add arguably the best WR in the league you wouldnt do it because hes not happy with his current team? Pittsburgh is a mess and if we can benefit from it I'm all for it

                      It takes a few idiots (sometimes just one) to spoil an entire locker room. And we have alternatives like the aforementioned, so yes, we are serious.

                          I would rather steal their offensive line coach.   Getting him out of there and over here would weaken that team and strengthen the Browns far more than acquiring  AB. 

                          Nevertheless....if he were a Free Agent...and it didn't really cost us anything (other than the cash to pay him...which is not our problem but Jimmy's)  I would probably take him.

                          But what do you think that the Steelers would command from the Browns to trade for him?

                            Everything the Raiders got for Amari Cooper and then some and then some more to trade him in the division.     I agree with you, if he was a free agent, he would definitely be worth consideration but the price to trade for him is way too high.

                              It would take at least a 1st and a 3rd..

                              But given the current situation I think we could get him cheaper... Considering he is disgruntled.

                              We would have some leverage... Shit we could probably get him for a 3rd if we took a big chunk of what is remaining on his deal..

                                Or could it be that with his team facing a must win game, he flipped out on his QB, skipped practice all week, refused phone calls from everyone including the owner, didn't show up till gameday when he learned he wouldn't play. He then sat on the sideline, away from the team, in a mink coat.

                                He put hiself above his team.  I don't care who he is....that type of player will destroy a young lockroom like the browns

                                  Or could it be that with his team facing a must win game, he flipped out on his QB, skipped practice all week, refused phone calls from everyone including the owner, didn't show up till gameday when he learned he wouldn't play. He then sat on the sideline, away from the team, in a mink coat.

                                  He put hiself above his team.  I don't care who he is....that type of player will destroy a young lockroom like the browns

                                    If he and/or Bell came here at a discounted price, to win rings, I’d be OK with that.

                                      I would rather steal their offensive line coach.   Getting him out of there and over here would weaken that team and strengthen the Browns far more than acquiring  AB. 

                                      Nevertheless....if he were a Free Agent...and it didn't really cost us anything (other than the cash to pay him...which is not our problem but Jimmy's)  I would probably take him.

                                      But what do you think that the Steelers would command from the Browns to trade for him?

                                      It would take at least a 1st and a 3rd..

                                      But given the current situation I think we could get him cheaper... Considering he is disgruntled.

                                      We would have some leverage... Shit we could probably get him for a 3rd if we took a big chunk of what is remaining on his deal..

                                      I would probably be OK with a 3rd rounder.  Pisstown would not do that under any circumstances, I do not believe.  And if they were willing to take a 3rd rounder, they would take that from anybody but the Browns.

                                        Keep that POS away from this team!!!  Worse cancer than TO or 85 ever was.  Let him go and explode the Jets.

                                          Ben R. is a drama queen personae.....and I think that is a partial issue.  I think he grates on people there some. 

                                          Also....remember, Dan Rooney....the real architect of the Steeler dynasty and ethos, is gone.  While his kid taking over may be all fine, well and good, that team just does not have the same gravitas or personality at the helm as it once did with Dan.   That could be a factor.  Maybe the new Rooney in charge is on a level with Mike Brown with his penurious ways.  And maybe, just maybe, that team is tired of hearing Mike Tomlin's voice.   He has been there 12 years now, and the fact is, that is a long time in this day and age. A lot of quality coaches just get stale to their players and organizations.  And that may be happening there.
