Should Jets take chance on Antonio Brown

[Rhg1084]

This guy can be a plug in stud number one receiver. Really can upgrade this whole offense and give Sam a huge weapon. Obviously if he pulls any of his psycho sh*t they can just cut him right away. Would it be worth the gamble?

How about signing OJ Simpson to give Frank Gore a rest every once in a while?

 

[jetfan39]

do you really think JD would sign this guy and undo everything he has done this off season to build a solid locker room?

I don't know about comparing OJ to AB, dawg

Why not?  I don't think either have really been convicted of anything..... just some arrests, right?

[Rhg1084]

Looks like the Ravens are targeting him. If they can bring him in why can’t the Jets?

Well, one is a double-murdering psychopath, but point taken

Honestly, it's not the worst idea.

The WRs are bad, and the depth is awful. Can this group even sustain 1 injury without turning into the 2019 Eagles?

You need to know what you have in Darnold and it's unlikely this WR group can give you a fair evaluation.

If you sign AB for 1 year, atleast you will get to know the truth about Darnold. If he does well with AB, you can continue your investment in Darnold. If he somehow learned to behave with his year off, you could also resign him.

Not according to a jury..... even if most believe he's guilty.

But Brown is no choir boy....

Quote

Sept. 10, 2019: Brown is accused of raping his former trainer, Britney Taylor, in a civil suit.

Sept. 16, 2019: A Sports Illustrated investigative report reveals that Brown faced an additional accusation of sexual assault, also detailing numerous domestic incidents and instances in which he failed or refused to pay for goods and services others provided him.

Early January 2020: A series of disturbances in Hollywood, Florida, where Brown resides, make the news. Most notably, he gets into an altercation with his ex-girlfriend with their children present. When the police arrive on the scene, Brown livestreams video of himself cursing at them and waving a bag of penis-shaped gummy candy in their direction. “Hollywood police said they have had enough with Brownand his disrespectful behavior, and have returned his check [to the Police Athletic League] and forbade him from working with their kids’ program,” the Miami Herald reports.

Jan. 21, 2020: A moving-truck driver accuses Brown and his trainer, Glen Holt, of battery. Holt is arrested on charges of burglary and battery. Court documents show that Brown initially refused to pay a $4,000 fee he owed the driver for moving some of his things from California to Florida. When the driver attempted to leave with Brown’s things, Brown allegedly threw a rock at the truck. Upon the driver returning later, Brown refused to pay for the damages, leading to the eventual, alleged assault.

Jan. 23, 2020: After an arrest warrant is issued for him, Brown turns himself in to the Broward County jail.

 

Although Brown is already trying on some green.

Incorrect. 

A verdict of "Not Guilty" does not mean that the jury didn't think the defendant did it, it just means the jury didn't think the prosecution proved it's case beyond a reasonable doubt. 

big difference

[King P]

If he gets cleared them I'm all for it. Give him a 1 year deal and a chance to show that he can be the AB of old (who was a Top 3 receiver).

Please don't come in here spouting about how he'll be bad for Darnold either. If that's the case, then Sam is not the guy we need to hitch our wagons to

not guilty is not guilty.  i fail to see the difference.  the persecution always has to prove their case even for the most minor infractions.  about the only guy who really knows the truth (besides OJ) is robert kardashian and he's dead.

[pdxgreen]

You want the NFL locker room equivalent to Kenny Powers?  I thought we were trying to improve the locker room atmosphere?

[New York Mick]

F*** no

[Beerfish]

I am one of the first guys to be okay with taking on slightly troubled players if the price is right, a guy like obj for instance but brown?  No.  He is flat out crazy.

[GreenReaper]

[Thai Jet]

In a word.... NO !

Yeah, again, this is simply incorrect.

Note that this isn't an opinion. The legal verdict of "Not Guilty" is not equal to "innocent."

 

[Prez33]

Based on what I’ve seen following his entire shocking experience with the Raiders, I’m convinced that this guy has mental problems. He gets his money and goes all stupid over a helmet, makes derogatory comments towards Mayock, and gets in trouble with the law. 
 

I don’t care how talented he is, he’s be a time bomb waiting to go off at any time and would almost certainly hinder the progress of this team. I don’t know why any team would want him. Even the Patriots, who have the reputation for taking problem children and creating the “right environment” for them threw his ass out the door. 

[slimjasi]

Yeah, back on topic:

 

No to AB. Let him some other locker room walk on egg shells for a year. 

[GreenFish]

I’ve been putting some thought into this instead of just abruptly saying no.

My conclusion.... No.

[Lupz27]

I just don’t think the Jets have the proper leadership group established to take on Brown for 2020 unfortunately.

Now if it was 2010 Brown would be getting a god damn snack ?
