I'm all for being in every talk, but this is one I'm good with us never having anything to do with.

The Packers may be interested in Antonio Brown. Unless they aren't. The swirling confusion over the wantaway Steelers wide receiver's situation has led to some ESPN-on-ESPN crime this morning. Last night, ESPN's Dianna Russini said the Packers were "interested and looking to make moves per sources.' This morning, ESPN.com Packers beat reporter Rob Demovsky refuted [more]

Sounds like Steelers initial starting point flew way over the market for Brown... making me wonder if they were looking for a 1st plus more or something...

I'd be interested in Brown, but not nearly that high of price.

Also I'm surprised that many fans that screamed about Thompson not getting Randy Moss (despite Moss hanging up on Thompson and trying to force the trade to the Patriots), aren't screaming for Brown...

Is that much difference between Moss and Brown? Elite talent, has their team problems. I know it's not an inexact match but I think some similarities.

Brown, INCREDIBLE talent.
And INCREDIBLE pain in the ....

Could have used the talent, but not worth the headache.

I really don't see us being Antonio Brown away from a Super Bowl at this point. I would rather the money be put into positions that get us closer to being a real contender and roll the dice on the guys we have at WR. I would still like us to draft Andy Isabella.

Sounds to me like The Bills were the only team that was ready to give what the Steelers wanted, then Brown said no he wouldn't report to The Bills.
Now we wait to see what The Steelers do.

They may just say the hell with it and release Brown.

He becomes a FA, that might change The Packers thinking.

I never heard of any interest from The Packers, and I never heard where he wasn't interested in coming to Green Bay.

This could turn into a Charles Woodson scenario.
No team wants to touch Brown.
The Packers sign him on their terms, and you never know.

Pittsburghs move.

Brown goes to Raiders for a 3rd and fifth and:

NEVILLE E. GUARD, USA TODAY SPORTS
Per NFL Network, Brown will receive a reworked contract that covers three years and pays $50.1 million (with a maximum value of $54.1 million) with $30.1 million of it guaranteed.

Good luck.

Packers can spend that 54mil on players they need .

beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.
