Antonio Brown value right now, with about 5 prospective teams remaining?

This is the place for team advice - should I make this trade, should I draft that player, etc.

Antonio Brown value right now, with about 5 prospective teams remaining?

Postby davidxhorn » Fri Mar 08, 2019 9:53 am

So, Bills fell through, and there is actually a chance that the Steelers just keep him and exempt him or something now. Could be Raiders, 49ers, and... ???

I want off this ship now - what would be good value for him? I am thinking of shipping him for Tevin Coleman and the 1.04. Fair?

Ew. I own Brown in a couple of leagues, and I'm content just holding. His value will bounce right back with the first 100+ yard game in 2019 regardless of what team he's on.

Just a thought here and it could be way off, but I'm also not sure it can be entirely ruled out.

We often hear talk that certain systems push the players in them to the top. When that system is no longer there for some players (whether it's coaching changes or change of team), the player's performance comes back down to earth. I'm not saying that AB will be one of those guys, but if you think about some of the WRs that have left Pitt over the years, they haven't faired terribly well elsewhere. I know Brown is a great talent, however, I think his value has to dip. I do not expect elite numbers with the teams that have been connected to him the most. It seems far-fetched to expect that to happen. Larry Fitzgerald said it best when he said, "he doesn't know how good he's got it playing with a HOF QB."

It doesn't matter where he lands, in training camp there will be so many puff pieces about how amazing AB is. Now is not a time to sell, even if you don't like the landing spot, you wait it out and sell when the puff pieces and coach speak is hitting its high note in the offseason...or just wait until he performs during the yr like Ditka said.

Selling now would be a mistake...unless he somehow magically ends up on GB or Indy, if that happens, strike while the iron is hot.
