Just heard on the radio while diving around the idea of trading Rosen and a 3rd to PIT for Brown then drafting Murray #1

:biglaugh:

Brown at his age and level of Diva and his demand for a new large guaranteed money contract means he should garner no more then a 3rd.... Adding Rosen would be highway robbery!!!

We don't agree often on these types of trades, but you are spot on. AB for the first pick on the 3rd round alone is hard enough to swallow considering that is where Kiem makes his money.

Hell, I might be ok giving up our 2nd since they'll be a bust anyways. ;)

Suppose we traded down and grabbed Metcalf (if healthy) at #8 - #12. Wouldn't he be a credible (younger and bigger) alternative to Brown and give us the 6 - 4 or 6 - 5 wideout we feel we need?

Metcalf won’t go that high.

Kliff's offense is about spreading the ball around to different guys. Antonio seems to have a pretty big ego. Not sure it's a very good fit.

Hell no to that jackass diva POS .
He is probably the best WR in the NFL but would more than likely be a cancer in the locker room if rosen wasn't throwing him the ball enough. Not to mention the Steelers will ask too much for him. I say no way to Antonio brown. Only way it would work is if Larry keeps him grounded with his cancerous attitude & if the Steelers don't ask an arm & a leg for him. Too many if's imo lol.

I believe it was Jurecki who said the Cardinals do have interest in him.

Also Keim was asked about him, and he certainly did not deny their was interest.

I am fairly sure the Cards do want him, it's just about how much it will cost.

Personally I am 50/50 on the idea. I see both pros and cons but if we can get him for a 3rd I would probably do it.
Definitely worth a 3rd rounder. The Cardinals have too many needs to give up anything higher than that. Thing is, other teams not picking as high as us don't have as many needs, therefore they can afford to give up a 1st or 2nd round pick for him.

After reading through the thread, and understanding all the history, I don't think our organization's fragile culture can afford a personality/ego like Brown.

I don't think his ego is a good fit with Kliff's offense, which is more about spreading the ball to a lot of different people instead of one guy being a superstar WR/RB.

Just saw on NFL Network during the combine .....said "Raiders, Redskins and Titans are the three teams that have reached out to brown".

Hopefully Raiders dont make the move for him. We need one of those picks from them for Bosa or QB now that we have rumors, Raiders shopping Carr @ combine lol
