Antonio Brown Watch took a dark
Matt Breida Jersey White , dark turn this week when words of a domestic dispute hit the waves. The demand for Brown’s services (and the San Francisco 49ers
involvement) may have dwindled next to nothing. So what are the Pittsburgh
Steelers looking to get for Brown now? A conditional fourth round pick. At best.
Pittsburgh Steelers beat writer Ed Bouchette reports he asked someone connected
to NFL personnel and got what the new price adjustment for Brown is: That is a
far cry from the first round MSRP the Steelers set for Brown before all of this
became public. There were some predictions made that revolved around Brown in a
49ers uniform. Fooch broke that down here. How much of a hit will this really
take? As Fooch says,the Combine is where these negotiations happen, so if
there’s any interest in Brown after these allegations, whether true or not, and
from the 49ers or not, we’ll hear there. There’s still a lot to unpack in
Brown’s recent domestic dispute before we can even talk the Combine. It’s an
ongoing process and more information on what happened is sure to come out. The
NFL is doing its own investigation while Brown’s lawyers are positioning him in
a custody case for his kid due to the allegations. Something to keep in mind is
the 49ers just got done with the migraine that is Reuben Foster and following
that release, Kyle Shanahan was candid that he’s not going to tolerate that type
of behavior. These are two different incidents that have an investigation
process to play out, but it’s something to keep in mind. There’s going to be
more to this story as time goes on, but while Brown may have hit the bargain
bin, he now comes with a ‘buyer beware’ and possible defects. The San Francisco
49ers are coming off a 4-12 season that has them 10-22 in two seasons of the
Kyle Shanahan/John Lynch regime. Add in a 7-25 record between Jim Tomsula and
Chip Kelly, and it’s been a while since we’ve seen consistent winning football
in the Bay Area,Last week
http://www.49erslockerroom.com/authentic-trent-taylor-jersey , as the Los Angeles Rams were wrapping up their win over the New Orleans Saints,
and the New England Patriots were getting ready to beat the Kansas City Chiefs,
soon-to-be free agent safety Tyrann Mathieu tweeted this out.A lot of players
talk about wanting to win, but eventually sign a deal with a bad team that
offers the biggest bucks. There’s nothing wrong with that, but it leaves us
taking some of these comments with a grain of salt. That being said, it is not
surprising when a player gives an edge to a winning team vs. a bad team. There
are a host of reasons to change teams in free agency, and most players have a
different set of reasons for making their decision.But if we consider “winning a
ring” on a player’s to do list, where do the 49ers fit into that? They obviously
have struggled for extended stretches in recent years, but they’re also getting
Jimmy Garoppolo and Jerick McKinnon back for next season. The 49ers are not
going to be atop the list of Super Bowl contenders, but they’ll be a hot choice
in lists of non-playoff teams that are in the playoffs next season. And with
plenty of money to offer their free agency targets, I don’t really see a big
issue.
