    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....

      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.

            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'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.

                                I'm more looking for that AJ Green type body receiver.  In the Red Zone going Landry, Callaway, NJokeWho and a big body WR would be pretty impressive

                                    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..

                                    We need the disinterested AB about as much as Miley Cyrus needs another yeast infection.

                                      Yep all that is bad, but why are so many Steelers unhappy? There is something going on bigger than Brown

                                      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.

                                      Art 2 has been in charge of the team for a long while, well before dan passed away. The media has blown this to the moon, brown has hardly said anything so it’s all hersay and speculation. If Ben was so terrible the offensive line wouldn’t be so ride or die for the guy. I won’t deny his occasional diva persona but the demise and the drama surrounding the Steelers is only perpetuated by the media. We had one of the highest profile free agents in a while with Bell and now unknown territory with brown who is yet another high profile player. Arguably the two best players at their position in the entire league. I will be surprised if brown goes anywhere and if he does it’s going to be for a haul.

                                        I know Steelers fans.

                                        What you just wrote is nothing like what they are saying is going on regarding Brown.

                                          It is inarguable that those two so-called best players at their position in the league will not be playing with the Steelers next year.
