Title: Antonio Brown traded to Raiders

Not sure how this is any better than the Bills, but I'm sure it will not end well

3rd and a 5th. That's not a terrible deal, I thought it would cost them one of their firsts.

He gets a new 3 year 50.1 million dollar deal. That’s why it’s “better” for Brown.

But more importantly it’s better for us he’s not in the division.

Steelers also will be taking on a whopping $21.12 million dead money charge - largest 1 year dead money hit of all time

I think I would have made that trade for Brown. That is about the max I would want to give up, but our offense would look so much different eith a star like Brown to free up Robby and Enunwa. We could have gotten those picks back by trading down from 3.

Brown seems like a head case right now so I understand why they wouldn't pull the trigger. But the Jets have never had a receiver as good as Brown still is.

Of course the price was good. There’s also a reason his market was 4-5 teams

@Spotrac: It’s perfectly possible, if not likely, that the #Raiders offer Le’Veon Bell the exact same 3 year, $50M-ish, $30M-ish guaranteed contract in a few days.

The trade compensation — a third and a fifth going to the #Steelers — wasn’t an issue. Several teams were willing to give that or more. The contract was the issue. In the end, Antonio Brown got his old deal ripped up and redone, a rarity. His demands limited the pool to 1 team.

The Steelers' loss to Blake Bortles in the playoffs will now officially go down as the last game that Ben, Bell, and Brown ever played together.

Thank god this guy isn't a Jet.  The whole vibe of this team right now seems positive and constructive.  Even the guy who has the biggest reason to feel jilted showed up for voluntaries.

Antonio Brown has announced he is going to attempt to stop stirring up controversy on social media.

In Twitter parlance, he is logging off. "Not giving you media fakes no more ammo," Brown began. "Enjoy my name AB!!! I am in Cali living ready to ball no nonsense!! You trollers troll! To good to worry #CallGod."

Riiiight, this was the media’s fault!

Wasn’t Manish pining for AB to be traded to the Jets too? Manish can freak off.

You have just introduced Manish Mehta into a conversation that had absolutely nothing to do with him at any point. Congrats, you just got played.

Were there? Quite a few were all in on signing Bell, but the desire for Brown as well wasn't particularly great as far as I recall.

I thought it would be great to get Brown and Bell (my preference in a one-or-the-other was Bell) because I want as many weapons as possible for Darnold.

I'm not particularly upset it didn't work out with Brown at this point.

Brown's approaching a level of delusional narcissistic paranoia that's boardering on Schizophrenia.

And now this: Raiders’ WR Antonio Brown has told team officials that, unless he gets to wear his old helmet, he will not play football again, per league sources.

Sounds like he’s going to retire then.

If that happens, Do the raiders get comp picks for him next year since they traded away picks for him and he never played a down for them?
