Here's the other problem - If Allen still can't get the ball to Brown (who's a top 3 WR in the league), how long will it take for Bills fans to blame it on Brown? We know how fans are with Allen already, so he'll get a pass, but how long will Brown accept that? Probably not for long. And a pissed Antonio Brown is no good to anyone, and actually detrimental.

If he doesn't show, they certainly do. If he does, and he's a team player, they deserve a round of applause. Too bad he'll be 31 years old already ?

It wasn't Twitter, it was his Instagram

Problem is he has already stated multiple times he doesn't need football anymore, and he can move on whenever. Yeah, that's worth risking valuable draft picks on... He very well could retire and leave us with nothing

ESPN: "If he got traded to the Browns or trade to the Chiefs, heck yeah he'd show up to camp, but to Josh Allen & the Bills?"

It could be. TO was getting traded to the Ravens, then whined & complained until he maneuvered his way to Philly. Brown doesn't have to report to camp if he hates this enough.

"If you're Antonio Brown, I don't know if you'd rather just not play than play for the Buffalo Bills." Idiots act like he still wouldn't' be getting paid MILLIONS to play football & be the #1 guy! No team is that bad... "Enjoy the Josh Allen passes homie - You'll be begging for Big Ben soon!" "I'm surprised nobody has photoshopped him with the Nightswatch by the wall against the white walkers."

I'm just going off of what they're saying on ESPN Radio. Guess it was his Instagram, not his Twitter though. All I know is I hate these 2 talking about it...couldn't talk more s*** if you tried. Just said again - "Saying this for the 3rd time on the show - no offense to Buffalo - but Antonio Brown won't show up to camp if this happens."

"I say this knowing people in Buffalo will be offended - I think there's no franchise you'd like to play for less in the league than the Buffalo Bills... which is exactly why the Steelers in their last act picked them to banish Antonio Brown to." "QB is where it starts. Do you believe in Josh Allen?" - "No." "Do you like the ball flying over your head going out of bounds?"

F*** these guys. "Is there a franchise you'd like to play for LESS than the Buffalo Bills?"

Antonio Brown just responded on Twitter saying "Fake News."

Ugh... I understand not getting respect from the media, but the way they keep asking "Do you think the Steelers intentionally picked Buffalo as a punishment/send a message?" Wtf... as if Pittsburgh is some Utopian paradise with warm weather & sunny beaches 24/7.

Yeah, they're talking about it right now on ESPN Radio. They keep calling it "banishing him to Buffalo," and are saying if traded here, he won't show up to camp. .... Now they're continuing to joke about it, saying "why would he not want to go to Buffalo?" as they laugh along. Saying "if you thought Ben Roethlisberger was bad..."

Where's the choice for Anthony Lynn or Wade Phillips? All the others I'd not rehire.

They need to do what the XFL did instead of coin tosses, and have two guys sprinting to get a ball first. That was probably the most entertaining part of that league.

Of course you didn't fatso!

Of course the Patriots have an easy schedule this year...unlike us, they don't have to play the Patriots twice a year ? As others have said, when you play bottom feeding teams 6 times a year, it's a lot easier to make the playoffs. Nothing the schedule can do to change that aspect. It's like a while back looking at the AFC South. The Jags, Texans & Titans were all terrible, so of course the Colts were going to make the playoffs year after year. Only now the AFC East is even worse, and the team at the top is even more dominant.

I don't get this comment... Is the last part some oddity that a person who rubs elbows with high level NFL execs can't do? Why? Because only poor people post on the internet? Or because people with good jobs hate sports? Or.... I don't get the connection. That's like saying a Hollywood actor can't play video games, or a doctor couldn't post videos on YouTube. There's nothing even remotely odd about any of these things.

Peerless Price. I'm sure Atlanta loved how that turned out.

"Bills-like" would be using a first round pick on a defensive player when we have the #2 ranked defense overall & the 30th ranked total offense with a young QB who lacks surrounding talent that you invested heavily in last year. In other words, an inexplicable move that seems to defy logic. Or drafting a RB in the first round when you have a Pro Bowl RB. Or drafting another RB in the first round to replace that previous first round RB. Or drafting ANOTHER RB in the first round to replace that first round RB (when you even have a starter-caliber backup behind that guy...YAY for 3 starting RBs!). They may stay put at 9, but if they have one or two WR's they love that would be around regardless, they should definitely explore moving back & getting the best value. No need to pull a 2006 all over again, drafting Donte Whitner 8th overall when he would've never been taken that high by anyone else.

I like that too. O-line help and a big WR threat, what more is there to like?

Wtf do they need an ADDITIONAL $250 million for?! Their players get paid $250k over 3 years, so with only 8 teams of 52 players, that'd be $34.6 million a year. Assuming they've already been paid each week, that number would be even less to cover all the remaining contracts for the year. Factor in coaching salaries, which we can pretend add up to half of that (which there's no way in hell, but just for laughs), that'd be $51.9 million. Even accounting for venue costs, operations, marketing, etc. that wouldn't come out to more than the player contracts, but let's throw another imaginary $34 million (again, there's no possible way with their size anything is costing nearly that much), and that would total $85.9 million for the entire year. So assuming the players have been getting paid up until this point, and assuming they're not bringing in $0 dollars in revenue (no, not profit, just revenue), how could they possibly need $250 million, and an "EMERGENCY" $250 million at that!!???! Another poster pointed out that in order to operate the entire NFL, running all 32 teams and paying all players & employees, it costs $180 million a week total. Yet this small startup with 8 teams, is going to just need $70 million more than that?! Even the XFL isn't going to require that much... Vince McMahon said it's going to cost $500 million over 3 years, which breaks down to $166 million per season. And you know damn well that's going to include a lot more marketing & spending than this league, so how did it just suddenly need $250 million out of nowhere? Did some regular fan just walk into a bank & say "hey, can you give me a blank check to start a football league?" without a dollar to his name, all while getting everything for free up until this point, and just suddenly realize "oops, I need to pay for things tomorrow!" Point is, I don't get the amount, or the "emergency" aspect of this.

Metcalf | WR | Ole Miss Another team that moves back and still lands the player they likely would have picked at their original spot, the Bills get a huge win with this scenario. Adding extra picks and still getting the most complete pass-catcher in this draft would be a great start to a draft that has to be about building around Josh Allen. Round 2: 40. Buffalo Bills | Garrett Bradbury | OL | North Carolina State 45. Buffalo Bills (from ATL)* | Andre Dillard | OT | Washington State Round 3: 74. Buffalo Bills | Devin Singletary | RB | FAU Round 4: 105. Buffalo Bills | Montre Hartage | CB | Northwestern 110. Buffalo Bills (from ATL)* | Emanuel Hall | WR | Missouri 124. Buffalo Bills (from KC) | Renell Wren | DL | Arizona State If the Bills traded back to acquire another 2nd & 4th round pick, then ended up drafting a WR & 2 x O-linemen with their first 3 picks, I'd be overjoyed. Unfortunately, it'd be far more Bills-like to go defense yet again, or use another first round pick on a RB. A man can dream though, and taking the offense seriously, especially O-line, would bring a smile to my face. Not quite sold on D.K. Metcalf though. The guy definitely fits the athletic "freak" moniker that's so easily thrown around, I mean just look at him - https://247sports.com/Article/Dk-Metcalf-NFL-Draft-muscle-photo-viral--128993072/ (yes, he's the guy on the left!), but he only played in 7 games last year & is relatively inexperienced being a sophomore. Scouts think he's got too much upside though, so who knows.

Not reading through the entire thread... No point in arguing anymore when it's clear that he definitely is inaccurate if you watch any of his games. The fact that in the title it references specific years of a player instead of the player's entire career says quite a bit too. Allen has had the same accuracy issues since he's been playing. If this was an anomaly of a year, sure, you have a point. But it's the same as the year before, and the year before, and the year before... That's a pattern. That's not a random bad year. He's playing the EXACT same way he always has. Unlike other rookies, if you took Allen's best year in college & had him repeat it in the NFL, he'd be a disappointment if he didn't improve. If you took someone like Baker Mayfield's best year in college & had him play that way in the NFL, he'd be an MVP. Look at Mahomes, he's playing like he did in college & was dominant. Allen's best year wouldn't sniff dominant, let alone top tier in the league. Accuracy is a big reason why.

? I still randomly say "You have to feed me horse eggs" because of the first one. My wife loves these because of how ridiculous that first one was.
