Its one of those 90's shows that would never see airtime now in this PC society. It also still holds up to this day. And I really imagine McDermott saying that just like Mr. Horse. He seems like the type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChanticleerBillsFan Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 Definitely not the right “DNA” don’t see it happening. Won’t get the touches he wants more than likely, and will be a diva. Rather make a run at AJ if we go this route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troll Toll Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 Can’t believe people turning on Brown so quickly. There is clearly more to the story than we are being told. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 I think I recall that McDermott and Tomlin are good friends? If the Steelers are serious about moving on, I assume Tomlin would be honest about the situation. I’m a little leery about what exactly is the truth here from the media drama Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think I'd want to trade the #9 overall pick and Poyer for him though plus AB has such an outsized personality I"m also not sure that they'd want to risk him being a potential cancer. From the sounds of things Tomlin wasn't able to control him, but I have a feeling that he would be able to fit into the Bills locker room. He'll be 31 this next season and he is elite, it certainly is tempting. #9 and Poyer for AB?? I would pack Poyer's bags myself. Steal of the century...

It’s a fair offer but it’s not happening. Brown isn’t coming into that locker room after the Rachel Bush stuff (regardless of whether or not Poyer is there). Poyer, Hyde and Tre are EXTREMELY close. They aren’t going to bring in a guy who will immediately divide the locker room. AJ Green is a possibility but AB isn’t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the locker room, I think most of the guys would give it bit of time for an adjustment, but I would be they would be happy to be playing with a legit offensive gamechanger. Is it not entirely possible that certain players are getting tired of playing for Tomlin and with Big Ben? AB needs a fresh start, our WR corps is almost "Buffalo Bills good" and Poyer is the most easily replaced guy on D. This would be great move.

HappyDays Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 (edited) If they can trade him to the NFC they will. My first guess would be the Packers. They have a small window while Aaron Rodgers is still playing and their offense is devoid of talent. Plus a new head coach about to take over who might be looking to make a splash, and high picks to trade.

There is no debating that AB is one of the best receivers in the game. On the other hand it is very unlikely that the clapping coach is going to bring in a receiver such as AB or an Odell Baeckham type of personality who are volatile and were disruptive in the locker room? This is a coach who wanted no part of Watkins who is not nearly as explosive or self-centered a personality as AB. McDermott at times tiresomely preaches the sanctity of the locker room and importance of character. He would undercut his credibility to shreds if he brought in a player who already has walked out on his team. This is never going to happen.

As Kirby pointed out in a previous post the Steelers are not going to absorb the crushing cap hit that a trade would entail. And because of his cancerous and seditious behavior his trade value is diminished. The Steelers will do everything they can to work out an in-house solution to this fratricide.

machine gun kelly Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 I say yes especially thinking about the article just posted today. It’s on the main board. If Beane and McDermitt can be convinced by Brown he can toe the line, he’ll go from a QB supposedly he doesn’t like, to an emerging arm, and growing. The Steelers are getting older and Tomlinson is most likely sick of Brown and Bell. Now is the time as we have the draft pics and cap capital to do it, and as the writer points out the timing of his contract up in 2021 coincides with Allen’s rookie contract. Chicago just made a calculated move with Mack and look how that is turning out. Can you imagine Brown, either the best or top 3 WR in the league, with Foster McKenzie and Jones, and using the rest of free agency with fortifying affordable but good two Olineman probably a Center and a Guard as more affordable, and then a solid draft to fill the rest. We also have 6 picks in 2020. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have thought the same but it's being reported today that the Steelers are listening to trade offers. They have no reason to put this out there if it's not true.

TheFunPolice Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 I would rather draft a great prospect or two and sign a decent free agent I have a sinking feeling he ends up in NE. If I'm the Steelers the only way he leaves is via trade and he only goes to an NFC team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Brown is traded it will either be to a team with a closing Super Bowl window. Somewhere like the Chargers or Saints. Maybe New England , but I'm not sure the Steelers organization could stomach that trade. Or an franchise impressed by shiny things, like the Jets or Redskins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
