Ed Bouchette says AB should simply be cut at this point, trades be damned.

I wonder if this isn't just an AB ploy to try to draw a release. Then he gets what he wants and can go anywhere. If it were me I'd wait and trade even if I only got a 6th in return. An example needs to be set for the team that this isn't going to work anymore.

I thought about that too, but then his actions would hurt his contract $$ with the new team. He is all about that money, so I don't think that he would give up on some money just to get a release so he can sign with the 49ers. Who knows though? He doesn't appear to be all there at the moment either.

like hines said, tomlin turned us into the bengals

I'm to the point that if a 2nd rounder is on the table by any team: take it.

He has to go.

it is starting to look like even a second rd pick is a dream.....

Could Antonio Brown cost 49ers just a sixth-round draft pick in trade?

I'd never let him go for a sixth. If I didn't get at least a high 2 (and probably a 1), I'd keep him to the draft and see if someone gets desperate and makes an offer I couldn't refuse. If not, hang onto his sorry ass and lay the hammer down. Fine him suspend him sit him every week if you have to for every little thing. Toe the line or don't see the field.

i agree but thats a costly revenge to pay him 13-15 million just to fuck with him. they have to trade him to the highest bidder. if thats a 4th or 5th rd pick so be it.

kinda hard to comprehend that martavis bryant may have more trade value than brown...

i've been warning you guys not to expect a high first rd pick for brown, but i didn't expect it was going to be this bad ....

one thing i would do for spite, is since he wants to go to san fran , i wouldn't let him for less than a second pick for them.

Thank you SteelerNation for a big 9 years...time to move on and forward..........#NewDemands pic.twitter.com/fbIoFNdqK4

Antonio Brown has not been traded nor has he been released. But Brown wants a trade and he officially has requested that from the Steelers, per source.

I was actually kind of thinking....hold him accountable just like every player should be. If that is f***ing with someone...

To your point though, I still don't agree with giving him away (to me, 5th or 6th round pick is just that). He's still one of the top receivers in football. Someone will pay up for him. Maybe on draft day he'd be enough to move us up to get an elite level defensive player (Allen would be great if we could get that high).

Perhaps someone should remind him he's still under contract for 3 years so he really doesn't have a say in the matter. So maybe he should play nice if he wants out of town.

classic example why nfl contracts should not be guaranteed

Love this dude's response to Patrick Peterson.

Between you and me fam... I think if he’s going to the desert you gonna be part of that package coming back https://t.co/aqPKfdYTHa

I'm amazed at the number of fans of other teams who think AB is a free agent and can go wherever he wants. I've also seen more than a few players trying to "recruit" him, so apparently they're not any smarter than the fans.

I guess I'll be making a new sig soon. My last 3 have been Wallace, Sanders, and AB. I don't think I'll be making a JuJu sig.

You say that like you're not a Steeler fan. Oh wait. On another note.... This just in:http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000001017677/article/antonio-brown-tweets-goodbye-time-to-move-on

if i'm colbert, i'd tell AB if he wants out then he has to sell hjimself for a first rd pick. let him negotiate his own trade, then he'll see how much value he really has.

Eh...let him rot in Washington or Arizona. Let's see about his precious stats then.

You'll suddenly be afflicted with issues being out of place, and not being where you're supposed to be.

I will be making one as well. I've had this one since he was the #2 to Wallace.

i'll add to this.
a first rounder or a stud ilb, olb or cb.
tell AB that if he doesnt make this happen, he will be here for the next 3 years. if he acts like a douche, he will be fined every chance they can. they will sit and suspend him without pay. if he fakes an injury, they will prove he was lying and fine him for that.
