Martavis Bryant to the Raiders
Re: Martavis Bryant to the Raiders
A third round pick. Massive overpay. Poor Oakland. Will be a dumpster fire in a couple years.

Re: Martavis Bryant to the Raiders
Free. Free. They got a guy they were willing to take at 10. They traded a pick they didn't have about 10 minutes ago. Ridiculous. Still got an extra 5th. Who would come in and immediatly be able to play on an NFL field in that role? Great move. It's no risk. Zona gave them that pick because they wanted a QB, and the Raiders got the LT they needed in a division of elite pass rushers anyway. I don't always defend Reggie, but this was easy money.

Re: Martavis Bryant to the Raiders
if he didn't learn to run routes from antonio brown I question whether jordy or cooper will have an impact on his game ....... his attitude has sucked , I don't see it as a loss at all for the steelers and little gain for the raiders .... in fact I think the next failed drug test is in ......3......2.....1........ any day now !

Re: Martavis Bryant to the Raiders
How was he free?
We moved back, reached on a tackle then traded for this disaster - there were top end defenders on the board we should have taken.
I appreciate you being optimistic but the Raiders are going to be awful. Reggie continues to be clueless. He has zero long term vision.
Not to mention, we could have gotten a more promising rookie under contract for multiple years instead of an overrated headcase in a contract year.

Re: Martavis Bryant to the Raiders
Definitely good for MB dynasty value. He had no value on the Steelers. Oakland paid a pretty good price for MB so should be a nice bump for MB owners. I still think he is a hold. Not sure people are going to want to give fair value for him at this point. You can expect a little better offer than last week but not by much.

Re: Martavis Bryant to the Raiders
Maybe Antonio Brown wasnt the type of player who wanted to teach/help? You'd probably have a better perspective on that but I've never heard of Brown as being the leader / mentor type. Today it seems he is more busy chastising all the teams that ignored him on draft day 8 years agoclarion contrarion wrote: ↑Fri Apr 27, 2018 1:55 amif he didn't learn to run routes from antonio brown I question whether jordy or cooper will have an impact on his game ....... his attitude has sucked , I don't see it as a loss at all for the steelers and little gain for the raiders .... in fact I think the next failed drug test is in ......3......2.....1........ any day now !

Re: Martavis Bryant to the Raiders
Not free. Sure they still got the player they wanted with their 1st, but you have to look at what else they could have gotten for that 3rd round pick. There are a lot of contributors drafted in the third round, and they aren't close to being suspended or nearing the end of their rookie contract.FantasyFreak wrote: ↑Thu Apr 26, 2018 10:32 pmFree.

Re: Martavis Bryant to the Raiders
It IS a steep price to pay for one (ONE!) year of a twice suspended player, especially given the Raiders needs on the other side of the ball.

Re: Martavis Bryant to the Raiders
Not really. He was always a short term solution and Roberts is the guy getting moved immediately. Cooper seems like the guys getting moved to the slot and they seemed to draw out taking his fifth year option. Felt a bit like warning shots.

Re: Martavis Bryant to the Raiders
As a Marty B truther I am pleased. Jordy is old and I see him being used more like Fitz in the slot, he'll get a good share of TDs. Amari is the PPR guy, the chain mover. Martavis will have the same role he had with the Steelers but I think he'll get more targets. Juju is the heir apparent now and his value should get a bump since he no longer has to compete with MB. It is a contract year for MB so he'll be on his best behavior. I'm pretty sure he has some kind of mental/personality disorder, so I hope that his support system goes with him to Oakland/Las Vegas, the good thing was that when he was suspended, he trained in Vegas so I like this move for him in that regard.

Re: Martavis Bryant to the Raiders
Wondering if this is the last year of Bryant's contract? Could see him blow up in a "prove it" situation
Edit: Sorry i should have read all the posts before posting! I see it IS his contract year
