Dolfan in NYC Posted March 6, 2019 Author Share Posted March 6, 2019 Baltimore is releasing Eric Weddle. Apparently Pittsburgh is imminently trading Antonio Brown. Per NFL dot com, "3 teams" are in the hunt but not named. The Jets and Cardinals have both dropped out of the pursuit. My guess is idiot Oakland is going to get conned out of trading their #1 pick for AB. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is idiot Oakland is going to get conned out of trading their #1 pick for AB. They've got three first rounders. Wouldn't be surprising if they gave up one of them, I suppose. I'd be floored if they gave up #4 overall, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Contentious C Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Yeah, I'm not sure AB would be the #4 overall pick in the 2010 draft if you re-drafted it today, let alone putting a 30 year old up against rookies. But, you know, Oakland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infinit Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Really? Who would you put above AB in that draft? He's far from my favorite given his recent turn, but he's been the best receiver in the league for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuerrillaMonsoon Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Gronk, yeah OK. Maybe if you really like Jimmy Graham. Suh there's a case for. Sanders and Thomas have been consistently good whilst Brown's been consistently great. Otherwise, I got no idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 Considering how valuable LT are (and how hard they are to find in comparison to WRs) - I would absolutely take Trent Williams over AB in a redraft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's far from my favorite given his recent turn, but he's been the best receiver in the league for years. Antonio Brown could be argued as the best player in the league over the last 6 years. I forget where I read it, but there was some site that did statistical breakdowns for receivers for best routes, speed, hands, short routes, medium routes, and deep routes, and he was the best at all of them. He's a crazy person, but he's in the conversation for best receivers of all time. He gains more yards per touch than anyone in the league. Last year was a down year for him and he had 100 catches, almost 1300 yards and 15 touchdowns. Seriously, you can't ask for any more than that. There are players at more valuable positions than him, but he's the best player in that draft. Earl Thomas has a case, Trent Williams has a bit of a case, Gronk has been great, but none of them have been as consistently healthy and productive as Antonio Brown. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 Here is a fun little stat AB has played 130 games - Trent Williams has played in 120 I wouldn't have expected them to be that close and it gets even crazier when you remember that Williams has had TWO 4 game suspensions due to the substance abuse policy God Trent Williams plays hurt a lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah - games played is a little funky because there is a bunch of times Trent will start and then leave in like the 2nd Quarter and never return And he has been fucking hurt a lot the last like 3 years (13, 10, 12 are his games played the last three years) In regards to the torn pec - that was Brandon Scherff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolfan in NYC Posted March 7, 2019 Author Share Posted March 7, 2019 NFL.com is reporting that Washington is now working on a trade for Case Keenum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogwelder Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 Quote Washington didn’t have to give up much to get quarterback Case Keenum. It sent a sixth-rounder to Denver in 2020, with Washington getting the Broncos’ seventh-rounder in 2020, Mike Klis of Denver’s 9News reports. Keenum got a reworked contract, with the Broncos paying him a $500,000 restructure bonus and $3.5 million of his $7 million guaranteed salary, according to Klis. Keenum is scheduled to make $18 million in base salary this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
