That says nothing about not wanting to pay him. He still at least inquired about trading for him. Everyone agrees on that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too much of what is in sports leagues is legally not valid it seems. I believe you for sure but this seems like a 10% one. He’s not only causing problems in house, he’s doing it in public. I hope that would be enough evidence...it would really say something if this wasn’t considered detrimental to the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why did Brown deserve a $30 million fine for missing practice? Its his his fault for not getting it cleared, but that fine is basically saying you don’t respect or value him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rc2catch Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 1 hour ago, DRA3196 said: This made me choke on my coffee. Don't you think the Steelers were looking to trade him for more than they finally accepted from the Raiders? Why didn't Pittsburg get more in compensation? No one wants a headache this big. Except maybe Andy Reid. who did sign T.O. But your talking about a player that is throwing his entire team and organization under the bus....2 days BEFORE the beginning of the season. A lot more teams will let him float on the waiver wire than line up to acquire his services. Apples and oranges there, Steelers had his rights, had to trade him for the best package available and of course the trading team had to sign him long term and fork over the cash. Lot of working pieces. Now if the raiders cut him, he’s a street free agent who could possibly be had for a league minimum deal on a one year rental. Almost every team in the league would take a flier on possibly the best receiver in the league despite the drama. They can cut him at any point for zero penalties.

Based on the wording his guarantee is automatically voided. Wonder what his agent was thinking. Just hoping for the best? Raiders are probably hoping he doesn't show Monday. That would seal the (non) deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wawrow has never backed down from criticizing the Bills when warranted...pretty sure he knows what really happened If Ab wanted to come to Buffalo, he would be a Bill. AB got wind, trashed the Bills, and then they deal blew up. Really not that hard to understand. I never wanted (someone find the thread please) and knew it would be exactly like this.
