Where will AB go?

Rumor has it a deal will be done by Friday. The consensus is that Oakland is the top contender. I think Green Bay will make a strong play. They have two first rounders and 10 picks overall in the draft. Their top receiver is a free agent and the window is closing on their primadonna QB Rodgers.

Your thoughts if any?

Bluntly, who cares. I'm long tired of the NFL, and its PC posture.

They created a league that coddles infants, because they have to provide satisfaction to their infantile fans.

Crap like the "Roony Rule" has ruined the game, as well as letting the kneeling go ON, without any action taken to assert who is actually in control, and, I don't think anyone actually is, they're just more concerned about raping cash from idiots who think the privilege to sit in a paid seat is worth 10 grand upfront.

Brown and the rest can go to hell for all I care.

I heard either Oakland or new Indy’s were leading contenders. I hope he goes to new Indy’s so he can disappear into the dark void

Oakland makes the most sense cus they can afford to offer a higher draft pick and have the cap space. Nelson and Bryant didn't carry the team after Amari was dumped. Carr plays like shit. Mr Big Chest won't even be a top 10 wr. His poor attitude lately is scaring lot of teams. Funny that he wanted traded to San Fran and they had no interest in him. Steelers will be better off with out him. Been can actually focus instead of worrying about ABs stat lines. JuJu is def a top 5.

But I do expect us to be the Cleveland Browns the next 10 years.

Every time I get some sympathy for the NFL players with non-guaranteed contracts and such, I remember I'm a Steeler fan. And then when we have Bell and Brown doing this shit, and all of a sudden I'm okay with how the system works.

The Steelers might be stuck with this dickhead. Unless they give him away.

Lucky if they get a 6th for him. He's fukn the Steelers more than he fukn himself. You can't bench him and eat the $ hit

You know that Rosenhaus is behind all this. He told AB to act out in hopes that the Steelers would release him. He'll poison any trade attempt by saying AB won't report.

There's probably a only a copuuple of teams that they're ok with and figure if they can get the trade price down far enough that the new team will then give AB a new contract after the trade.

Too bad he can't be put on the restricted list for saying he won't report to certain teams if traded. He is under contract after all.

Never understood how these guy sign long term contracts and want more guaranteed $. What the point of signing?
