Agree with Miguel.

Yeah was writing something similar right after the one year deal rumors came out. The Revis model makes the most sense to shift money around.

It's totally possible this whole summer was a galaxy brain attempt to force his way to a team he wanted to play for as opposed to the team the Steelers wanted him to play for.

Going forward that's my take. It's the only way I can be totally ok with this.

Some of you need to eat ALL THE CROW

My original statement: I'd rather have Olszewski and Meyers than a diva. My mind hasn't changed. But if he buys in, welcome aboard.

I don't understand why so many fans thought BB would stay away from him. AB will come in motivated and "all in". Sorry Mike...

 

[Run DMC]

I thought this was a joke. I am psyched. He obviously shot his way out of NFL purgatory in Oakland and ends up giving the finger to PIT. He is not crazy or a cancer. He loves Brady! LOL, this is fantastic!

Guys I can't even ****ing function. This is too much.

I'm some unsustainable combination of dying with laughter, drinking in NFL fan tears, and giddy with excitement over the potential of this year's team.

Similar career arcs
Moss, all time stretch with team he was drafted with(vikings), malcontent went to Raiders, left unhappy, then to Pats at age 30.

Brown, all time stretch with team he was drafted with(steelers) malcontent went to Raiders, left unhappy, then to Pats at age 31.

I doubt it will be Meyers as he is one of the few WR with a longer contract. If you ask me it will be either Gunner, DT or Dorsett. Obviously with Dorsett it would most probably be a trade and save some money.

No way. Who knows how long Gordon will last, or how long AB can survive without drama. I'd say, goodbye LaCosse or Cunningham.

Give Goodell some time. Many posters HERE are talking about possible discussions between AB's again and the patriots when he was under contract (before this morning). I suspect that Mayock will ask for a penalty.

This is one of the greatest days in our history and that's saying something. We just arguably the best receiver in the league at no cost but the cap hit. No picks, no players just AB straight up!!

 

[luuked]

Why is everybody so ecstatic? Our WR corp still needs work.....

Still missing depth for those 7 WR sets that Josh will pull out of his ass.

 

[Teej]

Let's hope Dante can get the middle of the O-line up to the task of protecting Brady.

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

HAHAHA omg this will be interesting.

What if ab isn’t a nut and instead an utter genius.. Steelers wouldn’t trade him here, he gets released on purpose to sign with us lmaoooooo

 

[Betterthanmost]

I want him gone if there is any schnanigans. Then again BB is not soft like gruden.

What can he do? We are the one organization he can't burn down. He is a small fish in a big pond here.

 

[FreeTedWilliams]

Holy ****.

I need a beer and some time to think about this.

Need a “me too” button

I’m just waiting in a reply from a text I just sent to my Steeler fan buddy.

 

[patsinthesnow]

If you're a defensive coordinator I really wonder how you deploy your 3 CBs. Ironically the only team with a strong chance to contain them is the Pats:

Edelman - J. Jones
Brown - Gilmore + S
Gordon - J.C. Jackson

 

[luuked]

No way. Who knows how long Gordon will last, or how long AB can survive without drama. I'd say, goodbye LaCosse or Cunningham.

I wouldn't be shocked at all if Gunner is the one screwed by this.

We won't know until Monday.

AB is the perfect fit for the "us against them" team motto
