SCBills Posted January 1, 2019 Posted January 1, 2019 I’m sure he’d grow on me when he’s tearing up secondaries, but he’d be an outlier on a team of guys who are all pretty likeable.

Yeah, I’m not sure how many likable top shelf WRs there are. Although AB has been the best WR in the league over the last 5-6 years his days are numbered. His speed and quickness are what makes him great. Those things don’t last too long after the age of 30. I wouldn’t give up much for him. Much like the QB position the Bills need to just keep drafting WR until they hit one out of the park. 1

I'd trade a 1st and Poyer to the Steelers if that's what it took. Antonio Brown is a top 10 player in the entire league and immediately fills our biggest need. You don't let someone like that go because he has bad blood with an above average safety. If Brown is available we should do whatever it takes to get him. I'd offer a 1st and a 4th and maybe a player.
DC Tom Posted January 1, 2019 Posted January 1, 2019 I'd sign him to a vet-minimum, heavily incentive-laden contract. Keeps his nose clean and produces, he gets his pay-day. ***** up, and he's gone with as minimal impact as possible. But no way I'd give up anything for an idiot like this. 1
Greatdane21 Posted January 1, 2019 Posted January 1, 2019 I would not touch him with an 11 foot pole. He kills the locker room. 1
Ittakestime Posted January 1, 2019 Posted January 1, 2019 It's a shame a guy with so much talent has such a terrible attitude. This guy will forvever be a problem no matter what team he is on or how much money he is making. Shut up and play
H2o Posted January 1, 2019 Posted January 1, 2019 For however talented Brown is, he is a "me first" diva whom you will never be able to appease. Someone will make this move still and God knows I pray it's not the Pats.

They’re all immensely likeable elite receivers. 1
HappyDays Posted January 1, 2019 Posted January 1, 2019 I think the attitude thing is overblown. Antonio Brown grew up extremely poor. At one point as a teenager he was homeless for 6 months. He was a walk-on at Central Michigan and devoted himself to football before becoming an NFL star. Yeah like many football players he is emotional. He is also incredibly focused and talented. I think McDermott would love his attitude here and our young core would embrace him. 2
thebandit27 Posted January 1, 2019 Posted January 1, 2019 How about this: Buffalo trades the #9 pick and a 2nd round pick to Pittsburgh for Brown and the #20 pick? That's effectively two 2nd round picks for AB.

He doesn’t want the potential headaches. Lots of potential headaches with the one. Imagine how mad he’d get at JA when he sails an important 3rd and long over his head?

He is 30, will be 31 before training camp starts next year. No way I'm trading a first round pick for past production. Edited January 1, 2019 by matter2003

When receivers are open. he seems to be playing like he needs to win games. just his nature at this age : ) Brown and Allen would get along just swell .... : )

But he loves to play the game. I don't think McDermott minds that attitude as long as the player is talented and devoted to the game. That being said they would need to do their research and make sure Brown's personality would be the right fit here.

No way I'm trading a first round pick for past production. I think he has 4 good years left. I honestly don't know what the price would be. I personally would give our 1st round pick but maybe he wouldn't cost that much.

Listen to Ryan Clark go off on him in his ESPN segment about Brown. The guy was the only person in the locker room that didn’t participate in other guys camps, didn’t help anyone else out, would leave kids out to dry when he was supposed to show up for events... He just sounds a selfish person.
