It does matter because you said a talent of his caliber is worth that much but not factoring age. Also like I told you PITTSBURGH was not in a position of power. That's why they gave him away for just a 3rd. They knew it was no way that the team could bring him back and think they would win. Players are normally worth a first when they are younger and also when the other team is trying to pry the player away from the team like how Odell was.

 

I think they were lucky to get that. I thought 4th rounder at best like moss at 30 was worth.

 

Martavis Bryant was worth a 3rd? AB is only 5th round better.

 

He got his money at least which seemed to be his biggest concern. No way we were paying him anything close to that. Hopefully we can hold onto other hof talent in the future.

 

The Steelers let themselves get screwed over by this turd. They lost the #9 pick and end up with a 3rd round and 5th round pick?? Really?? I would have forced him to be a no show. They got played. This all started when they caved to Blount and Harrison. The Bell garbage didn’t help.

All we can really say is at least he’s gone. I hope he blows out a knee in practice.

 

As AB says , karma , it’s called karma.

 

If he never acted like dat hed still be in pitt and we'd be looking forward to next season

 

Sure hope the 2 draft picks make the team and contribute.

 

I thought a first round for AB was a sure thing when this started out. The more and more it went along and the more and more he sabotaged his trade value, I am surprised we got what we did. Cooper fetched a late first round pick because he is 24, and also not going to demand to be paid 20 million a year, that is ridiculous. Don’t forget that Randy Moss only fetched a 4th rounder in a very similar scenario.The raiders third is like a late second rounder. Those are the positives I take from this trade.

 

I find it hard to believe if he tried to mend fences and work it out he wouldnt have came back.

 

They got reared by Bell and Brown. They have set a precedent that they are clueless on how to run a team. They still have the one guy that actually needs to go calling the shots.

You lose the number 1 receiver and running back in the month of March, bell will be gone soon, and all you have to show for it is a 3rd rounder. Good work idiots.

 

Sorry dude is 31, a complete headache, and a liability to himself and the team he plays for. A third and a fifth is a gift from the raiders that will keep on giving through 2019. Brown will be a basket case by week 5 in Oakland. Gruden is like our Santa Claus. 3rd rounder for Bryant and takes this lunatic off our hands.

 

Just out, he's a Raider for a 3rd and 5rd round pick

 

What would you have had them do??? They offered to make Bell the highest paid RB... TWICE, he declined. What could they have down with Brown?? Disable his Instagram? The Steelers did what they could in both situations, no matter how much you want it, they can’t control grown men. Harrison, Brown and Bell are possibly theee of the most talented Steelers ever, also turns out they are theee of the biggest scum bags. Or tonsoind like an old man, but that’s what this generation is now and I expect it to happen more with other teams and players.

 

Wow this team is a ****ing mess,

 

AB just liked this tweet : lost for words. Good riddance.

 

The Steelers handled this horribly. I already thought Tomlin should go. Now I believe it is time to move on from Colbert, too. There is no excuse for getting so little for Brown. If this is the best they could do, they should have kept him. They got pennies on the dollar, took a big cap hit, gave Brown everything he wanted and showed that they will cave whenever a player throws enough tantrums. It is time to clean house and move on.

 

Of course he liked it. He won. He thoroughly kicked Colbert's ass even though the team had more leverage. Rooney won't do it, but he should fire Colbert tomorrow.

This isn't even anger talking, though I am angry. Colbert just proved he can't get the job done anymore.
