snackattack Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 ignorant question: if we traded for antonio brown, what would our cap hit be? does it match what his cap hit would have been for the steelers? or do they eat certain portions of it like the signing and/or roster bonuses?

Brown wants a new deal with his new team .. not sure he'll get it, but that's what they are angling for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesnt want a whole new deal. He wants his current deal guaranteed. If i recall correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People have answered, but he wants his deal to be restructured. If it wasn't restructured, he would cost appx $15m, $11m and $12m in the next 3 years. If we were to restructure, guaranteeing some aspect of the first 2 years isn't a big deal, but I wouldn't want to touch the 3rd. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want him anywhere near Lambeau unless he has a visitors jersey on. Guy is trouble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want him anywhere near Lambeau unless he has a visitors jersey on. Guy is trouble. I mean, he's going a little overboard right now. I think that he is frustrated that the media is all in on him instead of what some people perceive to be the real problem in Ben... I think if he was happy he'd shut up like he has. I have no issue with his play or work ethic, but the personality probably isn't a great fit for Green Bay. I like to think, will I be upset or worried if a rival gets them? And 100% I would be terrified if Brown went to a direct rival, like the Rams/Saints/Eagles/Bears etc. Many teams can't afford him, and the Vikings make no sense with Diggs and Thielen.

JBURGE Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 (edited) Ran across Arkansas State EDGE Ronheen Bingham for the first time today... anyone have any clue where he could go considering his knee injury, not being able to participate in the combine/pro day?

ChaRisMa Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 I honestly wouldn’t touch Bell. The ONLY way he wins that holdout now is if his plan all along was to take as much guaranteed $ and shut it down and retire. Sorry, being a year older and away from football doesn’t help your shelf life. You lost a year. Brown doesn’t have the self control for my taste. I’ll pass. And the Steelers can just go full rebuild now. They slammed their own window. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The value is in NOT restructuring his contract and making him play up to his deal. If he doesn’t, you can cut him and save the entire salary. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighCalebR Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 With Tavon Young (slot only) getting around 9mil a year. You gotta think Breeland is gonna be in that same ballpark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well duh, but the fact that he wants to restructure means he may reuse to report without a new deal. The value is obviously the contract amount with zero dead cap, I've been lobbying for that fact since the beginning, but with the new info that he wants gtd money, it lowered his value Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's really no reason it should be lower either, just because we want it to be. If we handed him Tavons same deal I think that's a win for us.

I think if we hand Breeland 7-9 and don’t get an Earl Thomas we will all know what went wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we definitely need someone else in the mix. i'm higher on tony than i am josh jackson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
