Is this too much, not enough or just right?

I get: Antonio Brown

I give: Jordan Howard, Alshon Jeffrey & 2018 1st rounder (mid to late)

As a brown owner, not totally sure I'd take that. Maybe if it was 2018 and Big Ben retired.
If you get him for that price I'd be happy.

I'd give that happily. Not sure if it gets accepted though. I offered Alshon/Parker and 3 2nds (2 are top 3 certainties) and got him thinking. So it depends on his goal/ thoughts on JH

I think his offer is solid. Was your offer Alshon and Parker and the 2nds? Or one of the two players? Either way I think his is a stronger offer. If it’s either like I read that is a pretty bad offer that I’m surprised he thought about.

I can see a Brown owner rejecting it, but I also wouldn't pay that much if I was the one buying.

The offer is solid. If the AB owner has depth at WR and needs a good RB, I could see him accepting this offer

It was both Parker + Alshon and the 3 2nds. I think its a very comparable deal to what is offered here. But that's also because I'm still one of those people who don't like Howard. Don't trust RB's long term unless they are elite talents, which I don't think Howard is. So if I was giving up AB I would assume hes looking to the future, and young as JH is, I don't trust him going forward. and pick 11 and 13 and a late 2nd is comparable to a late-ish first. But I digress. curious what the AB owner here says

I'd rather take my chance with the 1st than the 3 2nds personally, but I'm an upside>floor guy. Not sure the AB owner accepts, but I don't think it's a bad offer, and wouldn't add much more.

Agreed... also why I used the term "comparable". doesn't mean exactly equal

For the OP.. I'd also be happy to throw in any/all of guys like Crowell (because he's not good at football) and Golladay if it needs the small boost to get the deal done

A solid offer but the lack of depth, plus no first rd pick next year would really hurt your team. I'd stick with what you have and if you want to move your first I'd looking for a team rebuilding and offer that up for a player.

I think the offer is fair for both sides. I’d prefer the Howard side because I think he’ll be a solid back for years (not elite but second tier). Also, with Brown getting older and Ben retiring soon (maybe this offseason), I think this is fair. Wouldn’t be crazy to see the owner want more though.

I think the offer is fair, but if ben retires after this season, you might regret it.

Would you mind answering my post: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=149012

My preference is always the long game and for that I'll gladly take the value on the Howard side.
