  • Calls his GM a "cracker" and gets paid a $9 million signing bonus. 

    Hate to get racial, but my goodness, imagine if Mayock called AB a "N*****?" He'd be out of football forever.

    Besides that, you've got to wonder if this whole thing was orchestrated by AB and Rosenhaus.

    Of course it was. 

    You think he's going to give two shits about what helmet they slap on his head in New England? 

  • Edelman has a high floor with a much lower ceiling.  Especially the second half of the season.

  • So-o-o-o-o-o-o-ooooooo

    AB had a 3-year contract worth $50mm (min)/ $54mm (max) with $30mm fully-guaranteed, and then...

    ... trashed that to land a 1-year, $15mm contract with $10mm guaranteed-ish???

    Not seeing the motivation there.

    EDIT: Plus you can be sure there will be a lawsuit over at least the signing portion of the OAK contract.

    Brown has made a ton of money in his career.

    I'm taking a wild guess that Brown has been stewing for months about the Steelers trading him to such a nonentity as the Oakland Raiders... Stewing over the idea that the Steelers really stuck it to him. 

    So yeah, I can totally see him orchestrating this whole thing as an ultimate "Oh, you think you fucked me Pittsburgh Steelers? Well look where I am now, motherfuckers." 

    Wouldn't be the first person to cut off his nose to spite his face.

    He signs with New England, and they gave him $9 million as a signing bonus. 

    Damn near an NBA move by AB.

    They showed him on NBC Nightly News doing a dance for being released from the Raiders.

    What a circus.

    GO BUCKEYES, BROWNS, INDIANS, CAVS, YSU, NAVY and yes I like ND!

  • I don't hate the Patriots like most, but I just don't think this was anything underhanded by them.

    As far as with Antonio, I honestly have no clue. I think he has real problems, not ones to be joked about. He could have been trying to get out, but doesn't explain all his behavior in Pittsburgh. I don't think he has acted the same since that vicious shot he took from Burfict

    Any thoughts on this Bill?

    Yeah, preparing for Pittsburgh.  Yeah, Charlie Babbit - 7th rounder.  Yeah!!!

    Anything else Bill?

    10 minutes til Mayock Presser.    Yeah, I'm a great driver.

    Edelman is always a safe bet.

    Don't be surprised if Simon Cowell has a new show this week called "Which NE Receiver has the clean urine?" 

    Door #1 - Longtime Cannibis Connoisseur - Potsy Gordon

    Door #2 - PEDs B4 Disney Sunset Rides - Julian Edleman

    Door #3 - My Eyes Adored Me and my gluten-free mushrooms - Antonio Brown-Untilfurthernotice

    Spoiler alert: Guest judge Sharon Osborne sees a lot of similarities between AB and her husband Ozzie.  Stay tuned?  Why not?!

    I share the thoughts as stated above. 

    I was surprised when Mayock took the position as Raider's GM. I have always liked Mayock, but he may take the biggest & hardest fall in this fiasco. Time will tell.

    I think Gruden wanted AB. He should take the hit for him.

    Going to be a helluva long strike in that case...

    It might, but you can't blame the owners for it.

    @htownbrown said:

    If there's a strike, it's because the economic "pie" of the NFL has been tilted very much in favor of the owners since the last CBA.

    Nothing on this thread touches on the serious items.

    "Guaranteed" money has been a mirage for decades, and there's nothing in the CBA preventing guaranteed deals.  FYI, there's nothing in the MLB or NBA CBA that requires them.  At present the only player in the NFL on a fully guaranteed contract is Kirk Cousins.. if more players structured their deal that way, guaranteed deals would be more common.
