Patriot's players still open to Antonio Brown reunion.

Imagine having a free agent, top-15 all time WR still in his prime, publicly begging to play for your team that's struggling mightily on offense -- and not signing him.

Imagine ignoring all of the roadblocks, issues, baggage and problems while making that statement.

What is to be lost by signing AB

Sh*t.


As in, non AB fans would lose their sh*t if he gets resigned.

I am still trying to find those masses of "anti AB" folks that people keep talking about. I have seen a couple posters but most reasonable people acknowledge that he will end up on the exempt list within hours or days of being signed which makes signing him unfortunately pointless.

About 95% here would ecstatic if he would be back on the roster and actually be allowed to play out the season. Who wouldn't ?

But it is pretty obvious this is not what the expectation among the NFL teams is. There are 29 other teams (minus Oakland, Pats and Steelers) that have no historic roadblock to sign him and yet nobody does. Not even a workout.

You just need to use Occam's Razor here and go for the simplest most reasonable explanation for why a HoF WR in his prime remains unsigned.

I don't even know how many anti AB folks are posting here. I'm merely poking fun at a few that I know are.

The whole thing is a circus. He's not going to get signed again. I think 99.9% of fans know that.

It's been obvious for a long time and has been confirmed over and over by insider sources. Bend Over Bob won't allow it though. Fck Kraft.

The release of Brown has left the offense with some of the biggest roadblocks, issues and problems we've seen in years. Belichick had no problem paying big bucks to Brown despite his Raiders/Steelers antics. What happened after that was largely media-driven.

We really don’t know Belichicks feelings because AB became a distraction here.
In any event to simply say he wants to play here and we don’t want him ignores barge deaths of reality, including

no team wants him
He is due to be suspended or out in the exempt list
He shot his way off his last 2 teams, and we have no idea how he handled the situation with the article the questionable texts when bb approached him about it. It is equally likely that he was released because there was no confidence he would fly right going forward as that kraft had his feelings hurt.
Sign him today, he goes on the exempt list. Patriots will have to pay him to sit home. And he won’t sign cheap. Then he will be suspended and will not play this year.

Pining away for your lord and savior AB is just a waste of time.

Wouldn't that be kind of akin to hiring a second one-legged man to help the one-legged man failing at his job as a butt-kicker?

Hah! I liked this that I saw elsewhere:
AB's problem is that he's too crazy for the Patriots' redemption track and not evil enough for the Chiefs' redemption track

I would sign this guy if he agrees to the minimum and force the league to do something. If it doesn't work out it was worth the risk. That said - there has to be something more here. This guy is so good it's impossible he's not signed at this point unless it's been made very clear the NFL will not allow him to play this season no matter what the NFLPA or anyone else does.

Am sure he knows some women or kids he can beat to get on their radar. Hell if he finds someone pregnant it can be both at the same time.

Damn you AB, why can’t I quit you!!!! Ughhh

Sign they guy Kraft!!!

Other owners don’t want sign him cause they don’t want to take a cap hit and spend money if he can’t play. We already took the cap hit which is a much bigger deal than a few million bucks at this point in the season.

I want us to sign him just so the sappy IG posts stop
