Default AB cut by Raiders, signed immediately by Pats

Obligatory wrong forum.

This was clearly some collusion. Cheaters back at it.

Has to be, but Goodell won't do a thing

According to overthecap, they only had $9M to spend. How did they get $15M for Brown?

That doesn't matter. If it's a $15 million cap but they have to have the cap room.

Way to go, NFL. I haven't watched a Super Bowl with the Patriots in it for a couple of years now. Looks like that trend will continue. Pure collusion.

Cap magic.

The contract for Brown is 1 year with a team option for a second year. They can spread the signing bonus over both years.

They may also need to restructure one or two of their current player contracts. The Cheats had verbally agreed to terms with Brown on Saturday but nothing had been officially signed. That occurs today and they will need to rework any other contracts today.

Patriots added an option year for Antonio Brown in 2020 at $20 million which becomes guaranteed if executed, per source. It was done to help for cap proration purposes this season.

Doesn't really mean anything to me at all that New England picked him up. They're winners, They're in a prime window, They run a scheme that is horrifically perfect for his skill set. It makes sense.

What I am, is dumbfounded at how incompetent the Raiders look in all of this. There was literally no return on this investment.

Odd how this didn't happen until Chung got arrested. Kind of like the NFL decided that their darlings couldn't win it all this year with that loss, so they conjured up this scenario, all WWE style. The league is a joke right now. Goodell needs to go!
