Inside the trade that never happened: Why Antonio Brown is not a Bill

‘According to multiple NFL sources who spoke on the condition they not be identified, the inability for this deal to be consummated involved three parties: the Bills, Steelers, and Brown’s agent, Drew Rosenhaus. The Bills and the agent discussed a potential renegotiation of the receiver’s contract with the Steelers that has three seasons remaining for base salaries totaling about $39 million.’

What Bills fans can learn from the Antonio Brown saga

‘Let’s not forget that this is a team that has been unwavering in its support of running back LeSean McCoy amidst allegations that he is a serial abuser of women, children and animals. The Bills can stand by McCoy while those investigations continue, and if he is found to not be involved, nothing more comes of it. If he’s charged and found guilty of the accusations, they can simply say that new facts came to light and that’s why they are moving on.’

Roth: Bills deserve credit for pursuing Antonio Brown

‘The tweet storm that raged through the night — those memes depicting the look on Brown’s face when the Florida native learned the Steelers dealt him to a city even farther north than Pittsburgh that’s in a rebuilding mode — sure were hilarious.’

Only one Bills WR had more than 27 catches in 2018; here are 10 free agents who could help

‘Wide receiver, as we all know, has to be a priority, even in the wake of both Brandon Beane and Sean McDermott saying at the combine that they don’t really believe in the concept of a No. 1 receiver.’

Brandon Beane: In the end Antonio Brown trade didn’t make sense for Bills, Steelers

‘The big question that most insiders posed was if the trade was made would Brown show up to Buffalo? He said he wanted to go to a contender and the Bills finished 6-10 last season. Quarterback Josh Allen had an up-and-down season in 2018 and the future looks bright, but there are still plenty of question marks.’

Buffalo Bills don’t land Antonio Brown; so who should Brandon Beane target now at WR?

‘Let’s run through 11 names that might make sense for the Bills to target (via trade, free agency and the draft) in the coming months as they try to forget about Brown and move onto other possible solutions at wide receiver.’

Buffalo Bills interested in acquiring pass-rusher Frank Clark (report)

‘Clark, 25, is coming off of the best season of his young career after recording 13 sacks, three forced fumbles and one interception in 16 games. In the last three seasons alone, Clark has racked up 32 sacks.’

Buffalo Bills, Antonio Brown and bad reporting

‘In the aftermath of this rumored trade, the same anti-Buffalo messages have been posted or tweeted by those on the outside, a vast majority of whom haven’t spent any significant time (or any time at all) in New York’s second-largest city. Despite what these aspiring travel agents say, there’s plenty to do in Buffalo and it’s not a city defined by snowfall.’

Kryk: Buffalo Bills pursued Antonio Brown before deal fell apart

‘No, the surprising part – indeed, the shocking part – was that the Bills took a run at Brown in the first place. I still can’t wrap my head around it.’

Bills fire back as Antonio Brown saga takes latest absurd turn

‘We didn’t want you, either.’

Bills GM: Asked about AB but ‘have moved on’

‘The Bills, with $76 million in salary-cap space and a glaring need for offensive playmakers, had not previously been reported among the teams vying for Brown. The Bills are still expected to address wide receiver in free agency and the draft to give second-year quarterback Josh Allen more help in 2019. Allen, the No. 7 overall pick last April, went 5-5 last season in games in which he both started and finished.’

How Antonio Brown killed Bills trade, and the Steelers’ options with diva WR moving forward

‘The Bills were going to need to work out a new deal for Brown, who apparently also wants a new contract. Who knows if Buffalo was willing to give him that money, but presumably they’d need to have talks with agent Drew Rosenhaus before pulling off a deal, which fits nicely with the theory Ross Tucker threw out on Twitter.’

Why Antonio Brown’s Trade to the Bills Fell Through

‘The Bills could have offered Brown more than Odell Beckham Jr. is getting in New York, as the NFL’s most richly compensated receiver, and maybe that would’ve convinced Brown to play there. They didn’t offer that, and the deal is now dead.’

‘Siberia’ fails in effort to nab Antonio Brown

‘VERY, VERY, VERY FEW Bills fans ever took seriously the possibility that the Bills would trade for the Pittsburgh Steelers star. The vast majority were closed to it. No way does THIS team go after THAT player. Then they did, thrusting us all collectively onto sports’ main stage. Before the champagne got passed around the floor fell out.’

Capaccio: Sorting through the Antonio Brown drama…

‘Many have speculated and even reported that once the trade was agreed upon, or very close, Brown said he either wouldn’t report to the Bills, or at least wouldn’t commit to reporting to Buffalo. It’s important to remember that the Steelers have never knowingly given permission to Brown or his agent, Drew Rosenhaus, to have discussions with another team. In fact, it had been reported last month that the Steelers wouldn’t give that permission. So the Bills couldn’t have spoken with Brown or Rosenhaus directly about a potential deal and his feelings on landing in Buffalo. They could, however, hear through third parties that Brown was balking at coming to Buffalo and the Bills simply may have not wanted to deal with that sort of situation.’
