Antonio Brown Asks For Trade
-
No and hell no. His contract is stupid expensive. And as others have said, his attitude sucks. 30 years old too, we're building with a young team.
I'll research it, but Fox Sports said the Steelers would have to eat a ton of dead money if they trade him.
If they trade him before Jun 21, they eat the money.
So basically they can't trade him for a draft pick for this year. It would have to be 2020.
There will be no trade. He didn't "demand" a trade he "requested" a trade. Everyone will go away for a while and it will be business as usual next year.

He could sit out...like Bell. Difference is that Bell sat out thinking that it would help him financially down the road. I cannot see where Brown could be under the delusion that he can do better financially elsewhere.

not exactly true....
if traded before june, $21m million accelerates to the cap this year. post june 7th, $7m this year and $14m next. considering they're getting back Bell's $14m, they can do some creative accounting (which is actually why Browns cap hit is so high) and mitigate the money issue. question is, will any team be desperate enough to throw high picks at a 31 yo dvia...

A. I think that the Steelers would be smoking something if they think any team would give a #1 pick for this guy.
B. I think Brown would be smoking something if he thought that any team would give up something that high (but then I guess that would not be his problem)
C. What would happen with their cap space issue if they just cut him? Would it make any difference on your scenario?

The difference is Bell's contract was up, and the Steelers tagged him as a franchise player. Brown is effectively under contract for 2019 & 2020. He could sit out and not get paid, but Antonio is all about the money, apparently.
There's damn few teams with the need and cap room that would want him and his contract.

OK....are you saying few teams have the need for him? I suspect all teams would like to have his production (past)......
But in reality, you are saying that it is really 3 things that a team needs to take him off the Steeler's hands:
A. The need (fairly universal likely)
B. The cap space (limited)
C. The willingness to put up his selfishness in return for his potential production. (God knows what teams that may be)

According to Mike Tomlin today Brown did NOT request a trade. That does not mean they should not do so anyway.

And I did hear the sound byte Tomlin isn't very happy with Antonio either. Sounds like some disciplinary action down the road. According to Cow-pie, it all started with Brown throwing a football at Ben- hitting him with it, and not in a very nice way.

I read that Schuster getting steeler poty bothered him, if that's true...why would any of us want this in the Browns lockeroom?

Schuster gets POTY and Brown gets POSTY

Yeah, sounds like that was the straw. There has been many things over the years that have led to this, but word around town is juju got the nod from teammates to help him overcome the heartbreak of the fumble vs. nawlins. He's a definite headcase...has been talked to by coaches and teammates several times this year, doesn't matter. AB is in his own mind, infallible. He was mocking Tomlin with James Harrison on IG real time with Tomlin end of year press conference.
He hasn't just burned the bridge...he rounded town with a school bus, picked up a full load of children, parked that bus on the bridge and dropped a neutron bomb on them. I've not talked to a single person that wants him here.

He trolled james Harrison? ur kidding right? lmfao

This is what put fans on blast....kind benign to me, but as I said ... Same time as tomlin presser
Dov Kleiman@NFL_DovKleimanAntonio Brown about to have an "exclusive interview" with former #Steelers LB James Harrison. [Via Instagram]
James Harrison has been highly critical of Mike Tomlin. -

He trolled WITH James Harrison. Man, Class A headcase. Minus the money they won't have to pay Bell, That's still seven million to kick his ego inflated ass out the door...

Baking up Turnovers said:
If I were the Steelers I would grant his request. Teams don't need these diva WRs anymore. Most of the teams with these diva WRs don't make the playoffs or if they do they don't last long. Look at the teams that made it this year.
Baltimore- no divas
Chargers- no divas
Chiefs- Maybe Sammy Watkins but that would be a stretch.
New England- none
Houston- none
Indianapolis- none
New Orleans- none
Rams- Maybe Cooks but that's really a stretch
Chicago- none
Dallas- none
Philadelphia- Jeffrey and Tate perhaps but again a big stretch.
Seattle- none
Meanwhile players like Robbi Anderson, Odell, Brown etc. find themselves out of the playoff picture.
You’ll have to change your screen name for me to agree with anything you say. Even if it makes sense.

I plan to have it changed if Baker stops baking up turnovers next season. But we're getting off topic.
