Steelers WR Martavis Bryant has requested a trade.

[Sure-Oz]

@RapSheet: Sources: #Steelers playmaking WR Martavis Bryant recently requested a trade. His teammates and coaches are well aware that he’s unhappy.

@MikeClayNFL: Chiefs, Jaguars pop as contending teams who could use Martavis Bryant. Maybe the 3-3 Jets.

[jjchieffan]

I would love to have Bryant on our team. Then have him catch the game winning TD when we play the Steelers in the playoffs.

Puff puff pass

[l4z4rd]

could use Bryant, but doubt the Steelers would trade him to the Chiefs.

[Why Not?]

Fuck. That whole team is falling apart and they still beat us

[CupidStunt]

could use Bryant, but doubt the Steelers would trade him to the Chiefs.

Yep. Fuck all the red flags, he makes us better. But they'd never send him here. Anywhere but here, NE, Cincy and Baltimore I'd guess.

[displacedinMN]

We should look at many options.
Who would we trade away or a pick?

[TLO]

Yes please.

[RobBlake]

I doubt they would trade to their top competition. But

Hill
Kelce
Bryant
Robinson
Wilson
Hunt

Sound like a dynamic bunch

[TLO]

We should look at many options.
Who would we trade away or a pick?

I wonder this as well. I'm sure it would require a draft pick, though I don't know how high we're talking here.

[Couch-Potato]

We spread it around here quite a bit, would he be any happier here? I'm on board given he has the right expectations.

[PutQuinnIn]

I'd rather bring in Josh Gordon than that turd.

[BryanBusby]

Pass

[Red Dawg]

Shit man baby! Hell to Bryant for a fouth.

[ptlyon]

Does he care to pay play for a team that won't throw to you when you're completely wide open?

[Red Dawg]

I'd rather bring in Josh Gordon than that turd.

Well you cant. Hes still not reinstated.

Fuck the Steelers in the playoffs, I never want to see the Chiefs play this fucking team again. JFC I hate them.

Amen

[Urc Burry]

I would for a late round pick, but why would the steelers? A late round pick isn't worth much, and chances are we're going to see them again. Don't see them helping us out

[PAChiefsGuy]

**** the Steelers in the playoffs, I never want to see the Chiefs play this ****ing team again. JFC I hate them.

I'd like to see us play them and beat them.. We owe them big time. They own us right now and until we are able to beat them there's no guarantee we will ever be able to get to the SB cause lets face it Steelers make the playoffs pretty much every year.

It can be done. Lets not forget how long it took Peyton to beat Brady in the playoffs and (different sport but principle is the same) how long it took Jordan's Bulls to beat the Bad Boy Pistons. We've got to figure out a way to beat these guys.

We can do it. We played horrible and had a fluke TD play late in the game and still almost won. We'll get these guys.

[Mr_Tomahawk]

He just tweeted this:

Big win today and tomorrow right back to work tomorrow I am happy to be a steeler and can't wait to reach number 7 this year.

No thanks. Locker room cancer.

No personal accountability.

Reid's system is designed to spread it around and keep D's guessing. No room for a guy like this.

If you CP posters can't get over guys like Kelce and Peters, i can't imagine they'd handle a Martavis Bryant.

http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/2...ted-scout-team

And he throws his fellow receiver under the bus.....

The guy is an irresponsible malcontent that takes zero accountability.

He's not worth the money he'll ask for, or the attention he seeks on the field.

[DJ's left nut]

Demarcus Robinson had his 2nd straight very good football game last week. This is his second season in the offense.

And he's not an asshole.

No no no, 1000 times no. I'd absolutely rather roll with Robinson and Wilson than put this clown on the squad. I'd healthy scratch Bryant before DAT because DAT has more versatility in the scheme. The only thing Bryant could do is play the X so his snaps will mean that Robinson simply comes off the field.

Nope - He wouldn't make my gameday actives list.

[sedated]

"Bryant called in sick to work Monday but reported Wednesday for meetings and practice."

I can't say I've ever heard of an NFL player calling in sick. I've heard missed practice with flu-like symptoms, but never "hey boss I can't come in today". Maybe just odd phrasing.

[Reerun_KC]

Juju is better than Bryant. With, or without a bike. Bryant is just being a crybaby.

Now I just need Juju to go off on the Lions this weekend. I have a 1/1 NFL Shield of Juju that I was thinking of putting on eBay for $1000.

Because Landry isn't under contract. He's franchise'd. Bryant is still under a rookie deal. And Bryant is way better.

Bryant being better than Landry.

I think he is. Stats be damned. Landry is a high volume receiver with a low YPC. He's not exactly breaking plays wide open. He's not a game breaker. Bryant is a playmaker.

If Bryant has stopped being a selfish prick, i'd take him over Landry. Especially with Mahomes.

Bryant/Hill/Kelce/Mahomes would be sick.

[MotherfuckerJones]

Bryant would be an interesting option for the Chiefs. But if he got fed up being a 4th option in KC, he wouldn’t like being the 4th in KC behind Hunt, Hill and Kelce.

Some further info regarding Bryant and which teams are rumored to have interest.

My 2 cents on the whole Pittsburgh and Landry discussion- to me Landry makes zero sense for Pittsburgh since Brown and Juju both are outstanding receivers from the slot and outside- Martavius Bryant only played outside the numbers. I think Pittsburgh wants a Martavius Bryant clone without the drama. The link mentioned above says there is interest in Devante Parker which to me would be a better fit for the Steelers than Landry.

As for KC I think Landry would be a great fit but maybe a little overkill, although Tyreek Hill is an absolute stud I don't think he'll ever be a high volume receiver. The Chiefs need to find a slot receiver who is going to give you better production than Albert Wilson (42 catches, 10ish came from week 17).

[MotherfuckerJones]

That deal is dumb for Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh needs defense not another WR they’d have to pay.

The last thing we need in KC is a high priced WR with attitude issues that takes himself out of games.

[Hoover]

1. I'm not sure we need a WR like Bryant. I mean we are set up to run the shit out of the ball to help our young QB, would it be fun? Sure. Necessary? No.

2. He's in the last year of his deal. Again. Not sure this works with how this Chiefs team is constructed. We are going to have to eventually pay Hill, are we going to pay Brayant too?

3. Keep building through the draft. If the Chiefs want a WR improvement go looking at some frist round draft diapointments like Treadwell in Minn who has two years left on his rookie deal. Or throw the dice on a broke dick like Kevin White from the Bears who is entering his last year on his rookie deal.

I agree. Hopefully Conley will be ready as well. I think they missed him big time last season.

[saphojunkie]

The best upgrade at wide receiver we could have made came when we upgraded at QB.

Watch as Robinson, Conley, and anyone else who has a pass thrown their way suddenly looks like the lights came on.

They did.

They came on at Arrowhead, and standing under them was #15.

Our WR corps is downright pitiful, and it can not be blamed entirely on Smith.

But fuck him anyway.

[Chiefaholic]

Does he care to pay play for a team that won't throw to you when you're completely wide open?

:::This program has been interrupted to bring you this special report:::

NEWSFLASH!!! Captain Checkdown has been traded to the Washington Redskins. I repeat, Captain Checkdown has been traded to the Washington Redskins. He's been replaced by a man with brass balls and the heart of a lion. There's been confirmed reports that Mahomes arm is considerably stronger and accurate than his predecessor.

::: You may now return to your regularly scheduled programming:::

[BigRedChief]

I say let's see what Robinson is all about - If he blossomed like a pretty little orchid this season, I'd not be shocked.We need to trust Mahomes to make Wilson and Robinson better. If they cant, we deal with that in year 2 of the Mahomes era. The offense isn't perfect but there is a huge need on the other side of the ball.

This off season we need to spend all of our FA money on defense. We need to use our 2nd rounder on defense. 3rd rounders too. We desperately need talent beyond our new CB.

KC's WR's had one of the lowest drop rates in the NFL and lead the NFL in separation metrics.

Not by a little. Alex was throwing to the most wide open WR's in the NFL by a huge margin. Why do you think his stats were so good? Because he's awesome?

If they're getting open, not dropping the ball, and carrying a mediocre QB to a 4000 yard 26 TD season to go with the top QB passer rating in the league, me thinks they're not as bad as you claim. Bad QB's don't put up great numbers with bad WR corps. That makes no sense at all.

[JakeF]

Suddenly the Wrs need to be improved after being 'Its all Alex Smith's fault'? Next people will start blaming the offensive line and coaching.

[saphojunkie]

I would like to see an upgrade at WR, but I don't think it's a huge one. I'd always like to see an upgrade virtually everywhere on the team.

Having said that, no I don't think our WR corps are dire. But imagine bringing a stud in to play opposite Hill.

Like, imagine Alshon Jefferey opposite Hill with Kelce in the slot and Hunt in the backfield. That's a nightmare for defenses.

I like Conley, and I am really excited to see how he does with Mahomes, but anytime you can get more talent, the better.

[MotherfuckerJones]

I’d look at WR trades vs free agency. Not anyone I would clamor for. Maybe Paul Richardson from Seattle

[Kiimo]

Landry is a six foot possession WR who lines up OUTSIDE and gets 10 yards a catch.

He's not an Andy Reid type of WR. He likes guys that can run.

lol Landry is a slot receiver who has had 100+ catches twice in his first four years.


He's possibly the best slot receiver in the game and can put up ten catches a game with his eyes closed because of the separation he gets.

He'd thrive in Reid's system. That being said he's going to command 15m per year when he gets franchised.

Beat me to it- Landry will never line up outside, he will only play slot receiver but his production is outstanding. Landry's ability to find the soft spot against zone coverages and win on man to man routes (albeit for moderate gains) would be a perfect compliment to Tyreek's explosiveness on the outside and Kelce being a matchup nightmare already.

Landry is legit and you'll hear me all offseason saying that the a slot receiver is a position I hope Veach targets and acquires. I'm not a believer in Wilson at all, and none of the other receivers on the roster have the skill set to dominate the slot.

Landry I think is gonna be too expensive though.

[Kiimo]

Also you'll hear people bitch about Landry's ypc being low and that's because they didn't watch the Dolphins throw passes to Landry three yards behind the line of scrimmage and the line falling apart and say "go get that first down" and then him catch it from his own shoelaces and then inexplicably go get that first down.

He made Cutler look decent if you just looked at the numbers. My biggest fear is Landry somehow ending up with New England.

Yes I was a Landry fantasy owner in PPR.

[Sweet Daddy Hate]

Great point!...The deal is, IF that happens, the WR's you consider "pitiful" might be better in roles more defined with their skill sets, and at the same time could allow them to improve.

They'll improve marginally, but outside of Hill and Wilson( if the trade winds are aligned and blowing ), there's not much there. The difference in numbers between Hill and Wilson are drastic, and the other three might as well not even exist.
Now, you can point to Smith's apprehension at throwing the ball beyond the LOS, but even that can't cover every aspect of what the numbers bear out. The mathematics don't work like that.
So yes, it would be wise to investigate an upgrade and a compliment to Tyreek Hill.

KC's WR's had one of the lowest drop rates in the NFL and lead the NFL in separation metrics.

Not by a little. Alex was throwing to the most wide open WR's in the NFL by a huge margin. Why do you think his stats were so good? Because he's awesome?

As I said earlier; if you're only goal is to get the ball to the point of reception and not very much further, then yes, the Chiefs are sitting pretty.

The Las Vegas Review-Journal reports the Raiders fear imminent league discipline for Martavis Bryant.

Per the Review-Journal's Michael Gehlken, Bryant's imminent discipline is believed to pertain to the NFL's substance-abuse policy. Bryant, of course, missed all of 2016 due to substance-abuse-policy violations. Gehlken confirms any further substance-abuse infraction could cost Bryant another year, or longer. With ex-broadcaster Jon Gruden replacing Reggie McKenzie at the Raiders' personnel controls, Oakland dealt the No. 79 overall pick for Bryant in late April.

What a waste of talent.

[JakeF]

Seems that he already has. Busted AGAIN for substance abuse? Dude won't play this season...he's gonna get Josh Gordon'd.
Good. He has real talent and would be a pain in the ass paired with Cooper and Nelson.

[BlackOp]

Damn...Gruden just spent a 2018 3rd round pick for this guy. That's terrible...

[Kerberos]

Damn...Gruden just spent a 2018 3rd round pick for this guy. That's terrible...

Just typical Raider ways...nothing changed but the price of their head coach.

How’s the guy with the bad heart doing for them? I think that pick was a steal unless his heart is as bad as they were saying on draft day.

[jjchieffan]

Lol. So the Fade have traded away their best defender, traded a 3rd round pick for a guy that they cut before opening day, and made several other questionable moves this offseason. The Gruden era is looking great for the rest of the AFC West. ROFL

[BryanBusby]

Gruden was nothing more than a token gesture to keep the dipshits in Oakland coming back to the games.

Hurst is good to go. Did great in his preseason appearances. He wasn't even aware that he had a heart issue until it was discovered earlier in the year.

Wow. He's one of the most stupid people in the United States of America, including the outlying territories.

[BryanBusby]

Seriously though LMAO at trading a 3rd round pick on a guy that was on a contract year and couldn't stop smoking weed

They cut last years 2nd round pick too.

How does Reggie still have a job?

[rushman]

Bryant apparently suspended soon for smoking marijuana. If that is true, then I think there needs to be a real discussion about marijuana. There is some psychological addiction going on that has these players in every sport willing to throw it all away. THat alone, means that it is a high risk activity.

I mean, if the Raiders and the NFL told him not to drink iced tea, or else he would have to pay back 5 million dollars, I'm sure he would be able to not drink iced tea. This has to be a strong argument against just willy nilly saying marijuana is harmless.

[BryanBusby]

The real argument is why the fuck is it still banned?

"Hey run through this wall, bash your brains in and when you're in super pain we want you to get back into the game"
"What you want to smoke some grass to ease the constant pain? Here, have a handful of pills instead."

Because he is just a figurehead now and Gruden is calling the shots.

To his defense he inherited a bunch of garbage. At best, they win 9 games this year unless he miraculously turns Carr into a clutch QB

Reggie was a good GM for the raiders. Mark and Gruden are the ones fucking the raiders up.

Reggie lucked into a good haul by picking early every round back in '14, but the results aren't very good outside of that.

I agree. Gruden is not good at rebuilding a team. Gruden went to the Raiders the first time and he had almost everything in place just like he did in Tampa Bay but over time in Tampa Bay he showed he could not keep a team at the playoff level with bad draft choices and bad free-agent acquisitions. He is a head coach who is a good play caller and that is it.

This real?

Marijuana... come on man... shit is less of a risk than alcohol. Should be legal. The fact the NFL gives a shit if players smoke pot is the real problem.

The real answer is both can exist at the same time.

Weed should be legal. End.

AND

Bryant is a fucking idiot for doing it when the chips were down.

Not mutually exclusive.

Reggie ****ed this up by paying his entire OL huge money. Should’ve known Mack was going to be the highest paid defensive player. I’m glad he ****ed it up lol

I thought that he was a steal if the heart thing was nothing major.
