<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">This really is wild. Antonio Brown skipped work, disparaged the Steelers publicly, said he wouldn't play on a contract with three years left, then got a raise of almost $20 million with $30-plus million in new guarantees on his way to a new team.

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.</p>— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) <a href="https://twitter.com/RapSheet/status/1104737648789344256?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">March 10, 2019</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> This is hilarious. Brown completely dicked the Steelers. |
Steelers are now losing an All-Pro WR, eating $21m in dead cap, and only got a 3rd and 5th in exchange from a team with three 1st rounders LMAO
Can't wait to watch that franchise crash and burn. |
This article breaks down where it all went wrong in Pittsburgh.
http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/2...rs-raiders-won It also doeant seem the Raiders are vastly overpaying for him. The $54.1 million figure produces an annual average salary of $18,333,333, which also isn't an accident, given that the largest annual average salary for any wideout is Odell Beckham Jr.'s $18 million per year. Brown might have to hit incentives to get to that mark, but it appears that the Raiders added about $3.75 million per year to Brown's existing contract. In a league in which Sammy Watkins got three years and $48 million in free agency last year -- a mark that would translate to $51 million after a year of cap inflation -- is giving Brown $54 million over three years really unreasonable? I don't think so. |

The Tyreek bidding starts at ABs figure |

So he gets to party in Vegas. Too bad he didn’t end up in Buffalo.

Just give Reek his $20M per year now before it goes even higher. And it will.
Julio, Michael Thomas... they will raise it even more. |
Yeah you’re gonna have to give him that so just go ahead and do it and be done

I can't wait to find out what the Bills were willing to give up to get AB. It was probably a first or second round pick...which is going to drive Steeler nation absolutely bonkers because AB turned the trade down.
