No they didn't.Apparently Pats offered a 2nd & 4th
Lol @ this raiders press conference for Antonio Brown. Right behind them they have their 3 lombardi trophies up there. What a pathetic piece of propaganda. They haven't won a Super Bowl since the 80's, and they sure as hell ain't going to win one any time soon!
Apparently a conversation between Antonio Brown and his agent Drew Rosenhaus during the trade saga was released on Brown's podcast. Pats were in on it, and Brown was very happy about it.
Patriots showed interest in trading for Antonio Brown and Steelers were willing to deal
Interested teams besides the Raiders and Bills were the Patriots, Eagles and Titans.
Has to be telling about what they're doing that they were in on a guy like Brown. Actually it says a lot about the myths of the "Patriot Way" stuff, too.
He's a primadonna nutjob who played a big part in Days of Our Steelers and they were willing to look past all of that and trade for him and give him big buckaroos.
-If that had worked, try to talk Brown into keeping the same contract for 2019, adding in a few impossible incentives to boost his ego. Allure him with revenge on Big Ben/Steelers and try to stroke his ego to get th deal done.
I think that is the key part where any potential deal would have fallen apart. I doubt very much that AB would have gotten any substantial pay raise out of a trade to the Pats. And if you read about how obsessed he is with money and how it equals respect in his mind there was no way he would have played the contract out with some added incentives on top.
Anyone who thinks this trade fell apart because of the draft picks offered by the Raiders is betting on the wrong horse. This was about the additional guaranteed money, imo.
We are supposed to believe Drew Rosenhaus when he says that the Steelers were willing to trade AB to the Patriots?Apparently a conversation between Antonio Brown and his agent Drew Rosenhaus during the trade saga was released on Brown's podcast.

It was supposed to be a private conversation between Brown and Rosenhaus. He doesn’t serve his client well if he blatantly lies to Brown about something like that.We are supposed to believe Drew Rosenhaus when he says that the Steelers were willing to trade AB to the Patriots?
