Analhole Brown Goes to Oakland
-
how does Colbert think he will trade AB for draft value, when AB can carbash every deal by telling teams like Buffalo.. hi buffalo "Nope, i don't want to play there" Colbert's screwed..just the way AB wanted to control it..At least Bell made his statement when Gurley got paid his big signing bonus dollars. than has seemed to disappear..i hope drew rosie-palms loses hard on this one..

Word on these NFL streets is that Antonio Brown wants $18M-$20M per year on a new deal. Yikes. Good luck with that. What a mess

He's got all those child support payments crimping his lifestyle.

I would hope no GM in his right mind would think a 30 yo wr is worth $20 million a year, and giving up a high pick on top of that. Colbert may be stuck with a royal headache. Plus paying a $2 million roster bonus to a guy who doesn't want to play for the Steelers. Brown may think he controls his market- but he really doesn't.

The Oakland Raiders just got Antonio Brown and Drew Rosenhaus. How long before he wants out of Oakland?

Thank you Flugel, I think we can call him Annoying Brown from now on.
Am I the only one feeling that this tries to solve and hide the Amari Cooper fiasco?

Nope. That was my very first thought.
Yep, mine too. I'm wishing the worst for both Gruden & Brown.

This is a guy who thinks a blonde mustache is a good look, so..... ?

I don't understand a team in complete rebuild mode trading for Brown now...?
Weird.

Sort of. AB is a bit more dangerous than Cooper imo. Good for the Raiders. It seems like a natural fit.
Raiders we’re always the team that the cool kids used in Madden when I was growing up.. maybe it’s the black and silver?
-
I hope everyone realizes how potentially big this whole thing was. Ultimately AB got literally everything he wanted and left the steelers over a barrel. Outside of draft day "I'm not playing there" type deals this has never happened before.
This sets a huge precedent for upcoming CBA. I guarantee the owners are pissed about this big time.

OAK gave up a 3rd and a 5th.
Steal of the young century...

OAK gave up a 3rd and a 5th.
Steal of the young century...
As was said on NFL.com, it boils down to the Raiders got a first round pick, and only gave up a third and fifth swapping Amari Cooper for Antonio Brown....
LOL, where's Vagitron and that first round pick they were going to get for Brown? And some guys thought we got jobbed only getting a 5th for Gordon.... Sure enough, Colbert was pretty desperate to unload Antonio for whatever he could get, and the best news (from a Browns perspective) is the Steelers are stuck with a $21 million cap hit....
Losers- Kevin Colbert, Steelers general manager: Colbert swore up and down that they were comfortable holding on to Brown unless they received "significant compensation" in return. This deal tells a different story.
Trading Brown for only two mid-round picks -- at a significant cost to the team's salary cap -- shows the Steelers were ready to take the best offer possible. And there weren't many good offers to choose from, possibly because Brown only would accept going to a team ready to pay him. Brown will count as $21 million on Pittsburgh's cap this year,
nearly as much as Ben Roethlisberger. Colbert now has to replace Brown's production with far less cap space to do so. Brown certainly deserves his share of blame in how his relationship with the organization deteriorated, but Colbert is the one paying for it. Usually eating anywhere near this much "dead money" only happens when teams have to cut some huge personnel mistake, not the league leader in touchdowns.
