Antonio Brown

This one is obvious. Antonio Brown is the loudest player in football, right now, and loud teams don’t win. Pittsburgh has had enough of the receiver’s antics and are willing to move him for the right price. With plenty of teams looking to add Brown, they’ll find a suitable dealer before the draft.

It’s been a long and successful road for Brown and the Steelers. Few players were loved and adored like Brown was, but when things got bad he was the first person to make them worse. His off-the-field issues have become too much to bare as fans and coaches so this team is looking to move on.

They’ll get a healthy return for Brown, one they should be able to use to find more talent in other areas. The departure of an All-Pro receivers could be the best thing to happen to this team in years.
