Although a top tier receiver, Brown is a me player not a team player. Save the big bucks Brown would command and use it where it is needed more, the OL and LB or edge rusher. A lot of good talent at these positions can be drafted. The Packers have talent at WR. They don't need a selfish player like Brown who gets upset because he was not the MVP of his team this year and was upstaged by another WR. Pass him by and let him go elsewhere. The distractions are not worth the price.

Ummm..No to Antonio Brown...

If you really want to spend $15 million or whatever it is Brown makes a season and would surely have to pay him more next year when he HOLDS OUT, then lets go trade for a guy who..

A) Isn't a locker room cancer
B) Doesn't talk to the media or use Twitter as a platform to bitch about teammates.
C) Actually is able to see what's wrong with showing up in a Mink Coat week 17 AFTER skipping practices and meetings leading up to the most important game of that season.
D) AND address a more urgent need such as pass rusher or safety.

Edit at 5:27 AM....Surly to Surely...Oops

Are there that many folks that want these guys? I must have missed those threads.

Once again, big, big proponent of the o-line! 12 can’t get the ball to anyone when he’s lying on his back.

In other news, did Indy really only allow Luck to get sacked 18 times all year? What would 12 do with that kind of protection? Yowza!

I think not. Go get Earl thomas and an under the radar Edge. Then draft another Edge high, TE, Guard, ILB, etc.

Him and his fur coat aren’t Packer people.

That is all....

If we didn't sign Khalil Mack, with all our needs on defense, we sure as heck aren't signing Antonio Brown. I'm looking forward to the draft and hope the Packers keep all their picks. In Gute we trust!

I've already posted this on another thread, but want to make sure the moderators get eyes on it.
I absolutely LOVE CHTV and look forward to reading it every evening. The writers and regular posters give such insightful perspective that cannot be possibly matched elsewhere. But lately the experience has not been so great. It's just a pity that one certain poster who loves the sound of his own voice is allowed to dominate every thread. He fills an otherwise vibrant and creative debating platform with droning, boring noise in an attempt to rile people. Moderators I beseech you, why allow such a wonderful platform (you've created through such hard endeavour) be hijacked by one selfish individual?

Steve Largent? Really? 1976? Bart Starr really slept on that one not picking him in the 4th. Would have made Carlos Brown a household name.

We didn't keep 4 rookie WRs on the roster last year to go out and get an expensive FA.

I have no interest in Antonio brown, but I have just as little interest in Geranimo, MVS, and Eq, being 2,3,and 4 next year. A mid level number 2 wide receiver has to be high on the list.

If Green Bay went after a veteran wide-out, I hope it would be for the slot position. A replacement for Cobb, a small quick guy that provides Rodgers that 5 yard security blanket. I was hoping Eli Rodgers last year, but this year a Cole Beasley or Tevon Austin from the Cowboys could do the trick.
Like the comments above, the need is really oline depth not an expensive WR that you rent for one year. I could also see a RB (power back) added in FA. Looking at the new coaches, they like that power runner in their offense. Maybe Yeldon from the Jags as an example.

The Packers have no reason to spend either cap space or draft capital on Antonio Brown. He's a great WR but we can either draft or sign a less expensive complimentary WR for D. Adams. Besides we may already have that player on the roster with G'Mo, MVS, ESB and/or Moore assuming at least one of them continues to develop.

Use our picks and cap space on Edge, OL, TE and Safety. Get those positions solidified and the rest will be OK. Thanks, Since '61

I remember years ago when we had a top wide out and went and got another, John Jefferson to complement James Lofton...Jefferson was a good guy, but that didn't bring us to the playoffs or secure a championship As an Irish guy, Id love to bring Tate to Green bay, but like Moss and Peterson, don't know how the fans would take to him. Id rather see the Packers fill their slot receiver need by resigning Cobb, drafting one to develop, and keeping the young guys we drafted and started development of last year.

Brown is T.O. 2.0, F- NO! Hope he goes to a team like Buffalo, then watch the whining hit overdrive. I have confidence in our young WR's and Tate would be a good pick up. We could concentrate on drafting players that would help right away especially at 12.

Considering we just spent THREE draft picks on WRs, there is no need to get an expensive prima donna like Antonio Brown who is on the wrong side of 30.

He'll go to the highest bidder and then start problems there. He's as close as there is to a modern day Terrell Owens.

My guess is his next team won't be his last -- he'll get jettisoned somewhere else before it's all said 'n one.

stay away from him.

I think it's funny how Packer fans whine about how TT missed out on Moss twice and are now saying Brown is a horrible idea. I'd love to fast forward time 10 years and see these same fans gripe about how Gute missed out on Brown.

I personally don't think the Packers need Brown we have WRs with more athleticism than Brown has. They don't cost draft picks and are on rookie contracts. Let a new WR coach and a year of experience under their belts show us if they are lacking or not.

Ron Wolf's greatest regret was not giving Favre enough weapons. I'm alone here, but Brown is the best receiver in the league and I say go get him. He and Adams would be a nightmare for any D. Brady threw for 50 TD's the year he had Moss. Yes, Brown is a diva. So was Jennings. Yes, Brown is expensive... but Gute was willing to pay two 1sts and the big money for Mack. All Pros don't come available very often. MVS and the rest of the Packer receivers have nowhere near the talent of Brown. We have a window of four years with Rodgers. Our current crop of receivers isn't close to what we had with Nelson, Driver, Jennings, and Cobb. I'll take all the dislikes and still think that you give Rodgers a weapon like Brown opposite Adams and with Aaron Jones getting the right amount of snaps and you'll see the Packer offense return to it's glory days.

This takes me back to the early 80's. We had James Lofton and Paul Coffman. Out of the blue the Packers signed superstar WR John Jefferson. Talk about a kid's dream come true. Well I soon found out the magic Jefferson had in SD didn't work so much in Green Bay. I never liked the idea of having two giant superstar receivers on the same team after that. Davante will never be a diva, you can just tell how he speaks. We don't need Antonio Brown, we need either a young Aaron Rodgers or a Bill Billichek clone who can make a Eric Torkelson or Perry Kemp into a star. I agree with Cory 100% on this.
