SkippyX Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 The league is not wrong for not doing Brown any favors. The Saints are not wrong to work him out or sign him. As another diva weirdo WR once said: “Get your popcorn ready” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But chances are slim AB plays this year, and in that case, he doesn't solve the Thomas problem, and the move has probably a lot to do with screwing with the league.

He has a good chance of embarrassing the franchise, but a Super Bowl would be worth the embarrassment (which is assuming he can keep the crazy under wraps for a month...which of course is no guarantee). CGM and AB would give the Saints the most talented receiving duo in NFL history...I"m pretty confident in that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Triplett said it was unrelated to MTs hand. I think there is a decent chance its a move for next year. Saints force the leagues hand and they suspend him. He comes back and (hopefully) stays sane enough to ball in NO. They'd have to sign him to a very team friendly 2 year deal. Given that no one else wants to touch him i think he would Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirill Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 Does he have to be signed to be on the commissioners exempt list? If not then why isn't he on it already? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He does not have to be placed on the list, everyone is just assuming that he will be placed on it at some point so nobody has signed him. Also if he does get placed on the list while signed with a team, I think the league has to pay him. Could be wrong on that though. Also AB is a terrible human and nobody should sign him. That the Saints are even kicking the tires is either 1) telling of how bad the MT injury really is or 2) SP trolling the league. I hope it's 2. We're normally pretty good about staying far away from locker room cancers... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think anyone can argue otherwise, but I'm pretty certain we'll get into this as some point. He wasn't released from New England due to any issues, right? Wasn't just his sexual assault charges and the pressure on them to cut him? That was always my understanding, but other than that wasn't he good in his time with the Patriots?

SmittyBacall Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 All you have to do is read his twitter over the last few months to come to the conclusion that something is definitely off, psychologically. Aside from all the legal action being taken against him and the accusations, his general behaviour has been so weird lately - like crazy weird. Nothing wrong with bringing a guy in to evaluate, but this seems a little too desperate on New Orleans part. What they're doing has got them this far, no need to scrap the barrel on AB and everything that comes with that. What is Dez Bryant doing these days? He was in the NO system and was declaring himself healthy about a month ago, wasn't he? Why isn't he an option? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope they can make it work, Antonio Brown just needs to be shut his mouth for about a month, and would have a decent shot at a ring this year. I'd like to imagine the Saints have done some due diligence about his suspension status before bringing him in. The thought of Brees, Kamara, Thomas, and Brown on offense is certainly intriguing. He isnt sniffing the field this year. If the NFL allows him to play then Goodell's job is on the line. You do not allow this guy to public bash the NFL and call people Crackers, then take shots at his boy Robert Kraft. Its safe to say that AB will never see the field again. The fact the saints brought him in shows they are desperate to win, this guy should be blackballed from the league after all the nonsense he pulled to bash the league and make a mockery of it. Not to mention what he did to the female off the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
