    As much as I like him, we did overpay.

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

    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?

    Hmm....

  • Where are our Steelers lurkers? Love to hear their perspective on AB. Seems to me with some of the things noted in his behavior especially over the last year something is up with him. Mental illness? Drugs? both? Maybe neither but damn

  • I don't think there is anyway that Pittsburgh trades AB to anyone in the division. And if they did the price would be higher than trading him any place else. If he were out on the street, sure I would definitely want him here. However, since this is all a fantasy, I would like to see us maybe go after Golden Tate to add what we already have.

  • Its well documented that this isnt the 1st instance of him causing problems. Not the 1st year. So no, cant blame it on the team getting older and not having Bell.

    The ones saying the Browns overpaid for a WR, I assume from previous talk on here, are referring to Landry. But I guess I forgot how much people value draft picks over proven players. And a lot JUST look at production in some instances to make their point, but use locker room influence in other instances. But I'll digress.

    Which one of these guys would have been better for Browns both on and off the field?

    Jaleel Scott, J'Mon Moore, Justin Watson, Daurice Fountain, Jordan Lasley, Marques Valdez Scantling, Deon Cain, Ray Ray McCloud, Dylan Cantrell, Russell Gage, Equamious St Brown, Cedrick Wilson Jr, Braxton Berrios, Javon Wims, Marcell Ateman, Richie James, Auden Tate, Austin Proehl, Trey Quinn.

    Deon Cain after all were drafted after the Browns took a WR.

  • Local radio host in pittsburgh absolutely hates AB.  He said he wouldnt even think of offering anything more than a 2 for that cancer.  Ab will only do whats best for his "brand"

  • I think its hilarious that people actually think the Steelers would trade Brown to another AFC North team. 

    Not only that, and I've said it before, if he isn't happy in an organization that has been a perennial playoff team for a generation, how long before he starts shit here?

    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.

    Correct, he's much worse....   

    @louisville-slugger said:

    Are you guys serious right now? If we can add arguably the best WR in the league you wouldn't 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's way more than "just not being happy with his current team". There's no benefit bringing in a locker room cancer, to show the young guys how to pout. Like he did when Shuster was voted a better player by his teammates. Who has a bad (make that humongous) contract,  is 30 years old, and we'd have to give a ton of draft capital up to get.  

    So forget about Antonio Brown coming to Cleveland- except what he's playing for another team. 

    Addenda: And now he's claiming a phantom injury to skip the Pro Bowl, just special.  https://triblive.com/sports/steelers/14479274-74/brown-withdraws-from-pro-bowl-smith-schuster-to-replace-him If you read the article he claimed his knee was hurt, Tomlin told him to get an MRI, and Antonio essentially flipped Mike off.

  • This is all moot point. No way the Steelers would ever trade him inside the division. Not even for more than they could get from any other team in the league.

    They are a gutless bunch because their team is out of the playoffs and is on the verge of suckitude.

    I've made a mental note of all the NE Ohio born and raised Steelers fans I know.

    If in the coming seasons they magically become Browns fans, I will fucking laugh in their face and point them out for the former POS Steelers fans they were. Fuck. That. Shit.

    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..

    I can't see Steelers trading within the division or AFC. Brown is older than Julio. Not a fan of bringing in WRs in their 30s. They're better off drafting his cousin Hollywood Brown who played with Baker at Oklahoma.

    Hollywood Brown? What more perfect name could you want for the Browns. Who gives a damn whether he can play.

    Him and Callaway on the outside, Landry in the slot and Njoku at TE, lots of speed on the field. Good defenses won't be able stack the box against Chubb like they did this past season.
