Antonio Brown traded to Raiders

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

[MBGreen]

Better them than us

[Johnny English]

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

[CatoTheElder]

This makes sense.

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

Of course the twitter GMs are complaining we didn’t trade for AB, of course they are

Of course Manish is the biggest imbecile of them all

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.

God I hope the Raiders are on Hard Knocks.

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.
