More drama in Pittsburgh - Antonio Brown demands a trade

[LinvilleGorge]

I want no part of him. Former teammate Ryan Clark is very openly speaking out against him and his impact in the locker room with his diva ways. He's saying he warned Steelers' management that they'd create an absolute monster if they gave the guy huge money and it looks like that's exactly what they did. He's also 30 and likely nearing the end of his prime. The Steelers would probably be wise to move him and get what they can and wash their hands of him.

The Leveon Bell issue is more interesting. Hes younger and going to be fought over like crazy.

Trade him here but we're the crappy panthers we'll never bring in a star we care about southern hospitality and content with sucking and paying our old players 

antonio brown will be 31 when the new season starts.

it's not about age, it's about performing. and the truth is, even the younger players on the panther's current roster are only questionably good.

You know....back when they were pushing that whole "The 3 Bs" thing, I did not think Ben would be the last one standing in Pittsburgh.

Not really.  It's too easy to draft a much cheaper option.  But some team like the Redskins with throw money at him like they did Norman and regret it in the end.

Agreed. That's noteworthy.

You hardly ever see players speaking out against teammates. When you do, it's pretty significant.

If GMs are paying attention they'll realize that every RB the Steelers trot out there produces as if they were Bell. I expect him to he a massive free agent bust. He's the product of a system.

Going to be a interesting offseason

This with AB

Rumors of Giants putting OBj back on the shopping board again have started to come out

Julio sat out this past camp until they worked something where they paid him more This year.  He'll probably get into again wanting more money

Bell becoming a FA after sitting out a whole year

That's a really big "if".

Guys used to sign or trade for Andy Reid quarterbacks plenty despite the fact that they never succeeded anywhere else.

Any theories on why it's seemingly always WR that's divas... I mean  it's strange right, that it seems to always be this position group... Is it simply not getting the ball enough?

OBJ will for sure be traded this offseason. The Giants will are trying to make Saquan the face of the franchise, that will never happen with OBJ on the team with his drama.

I expect OBJ to be traded to one of the LA teams.
