    Probably shouldn't threaten to punch your GM and call him a cracker.

    Well, he can be someone else's problem now.

    So do the Raiders even have a receiver anymore? I know they got rid of their TE so they don't have one of those either.

    Time for Josh Jacobs to be all their offense.

    Ultimately, he was the one that set this all in motion. How hard is it to just accept a new helmet? and then you obviously dont go throwing racial based insults at your GM.

    Well now we know which side of this soap opera was lying.

    Raiders, I think they've gotta be one of the favorites to land #1 next year now. AB, honestly I think the only teams that might sign him after this mess are the Redskins or Bills, probably Redskins.

    Twitter, per usual, has already sent him to the Patriots but I think AB is a different kind of beast from Randy Moss. This isn't just a diva receiver, this is a basket case that's only going to be a distraction for your team.

    I'd stop following the Cowboys and spend all of my attention on my CFB team. Yeah, we kidna managed to deal with T.O. but A.B is just worse. I dont got time for that drama.

    See. Benefits of having multiple teams to root for. No drama like this in Kansas Ci... fuck.

    Meanwhile, the non-diva Julio Jones is getting paid more than any other WR. Good timing.

    Julio Jones, who intentionally didn't hold out because he wanted to remind the Falcons why they're paying him.

    They still have Tyrell Williams, JJ Nelson and Ryan Grant, drafted Hunter Renfrow, they'll probably snag someone else rather than bring Ateman off the practice squad.

    Darren Waller is planning a career revival at TE, they drafted Foster Moreau and have Derek Carrier as a journeyman backup.

    So yeah Carr still has a fair number of targets. One of the talks this pre season was how deep their receiver camp was and how competitive it'd be.

    I know they've got ex-Charger Tyrell Williams and they drafted Clemson hero Hunter Renfroe.

    No clue beyond that.

    I said it in Slack already, but I'm fine with him being on the Bills if he puts up 100+/1200+/10+ like he does on the regular. I think McDermott would fucking tear him a new asshole, but idk if that would work with him. He seems to expect the leeway Tomlin gave him.

    Whoops, guess we were beaten to the punch. AB agreed to terms with the Pats:

    Perhaps Gruden would like to give the Patriots some draft picks as well, for old-time's sake.

    Bills twitter is conspiracy central right now.

    "I bet you Bill got word to AB if he could get himself out at Oakland, they'd be interested in signing him...."

    "No way you can negotiate a $15m contract in less than a day..."


    Oh man, I'm dyin' over here...

    I hate this move for AB more than I hated signing Albert Haynesworth, and I fucking HATED the Haynesworth signing.

    This legitimately makes me less excited for the season. Hate everything about giving this fucking diva exactly what he wants.

    I'm not hoping he fails in NE, but he'll have to show he's not the utter prima donna and whack job that he showed to be in the past 12 months for me to actually like him and this signing.

    All up on Brad'y balls.
