For what it's worth he's the best receiver in the league in my opinion.
But over the past few seasons he's shown to be an all time clown and diva even by WR standards.
Shannon Sharpe literally called him a "gaping butthole" on national TV and it didn't even seem crazy to say. lol
He's not going to be on the Raiders next year even if they get pennies back on their investment or pay part of his salary. I could see AB becoming a one year rental mercenary for the rest of his career because nobody can stand him.

Agree OP. And to think people were actually using AB and Bell, of all people, as examples to blame the Rooney's, Colbert and Tomlin for not knowing what they are doing. Anyone who has played team sports past high school knows how much team chemistry is screwed up by having a cancer in the locker room. Let alone 2.

Dude went full blown nutcase this offseason. I thought it was just an act to ensure his trade from Pittsburgh because it was obviously hurting their leverage but nope...he's doubling down on it.
I lol'd at some people on twitter saying the fines were unnecessary. Yeah cuz that's exactly what you want your young players to see...someone who's talented and making a ton of money and disregarding team rules and not showing up for mandatory practice or being late for meetings...that sets an awesome precedent and brings in a winning culture you strive for.
There's a reason the Pats have been so successful. Big name player, big money free agent Adalius Thomas...late for a meeting because of a blizzard? Kicked the f*ck out and told to go home in front of the whole team.
I'm sure if Brady was late for one Belichick would send his ass packing as well.

Cowherd just said if they suspend or fine him for "conduct detrimental to the team" then they can cut him without having to pay any of his guaranteed money. Don't know how true that is but if they could do that I would bet Mayock would do it, and should.

im telling you, he is on some kind of drug
they are saying if they suspend him, he can lose 30million in guaranteed money....
antonio brown losing 30 million would cause AB to go apechit causing it to be the end of his career as no fukin team is going to touch him after this.*** Free Thinker Crew ***

raiders should wash their hands of him.
it's not like they were sb contenders anyway. they got some young talent that they can focus on. unless they think AB is going to magically turn back the clock and go back to his pre-hollywood days.***Gender Non-Committed***

actually yes you are correct they should pull out of this deal. they clearly do not know how to handle the guy.
you bring in a diva like this, you have to treat him differently. it isn't fair and it isn't always right but you went and got him, he was a big dramatic deal before you got him. you knew what you got. this isn't the military and he isn't 21 years old, you aren't going to change him into a responsible employee.
you either give him the diva treatment or let him go, otherwise it'll never work. TO was like that, Odell will be like that as he gets older, etc.
