This is Clark’s opinion then and it’s his opinion now.

Here’s the thing though. When Clark said it to the person in the organization, it was his opinion. This isn’t some “insider info” or locker room talk.
This is Clark’s opinion then and it’s his opinion now.
I disagree that it isn't "insider info" but I agree that it's his opinion and that it's fully in-bounds. It's part of his job, and I'm certain that it's part of why he was hired.
Random aside: Ryan Clark is -really- good at his job. Like, I think he could be in a booth one day.

I believe people will be surprised with how much the Steelers don't get for Brown. His attitude will follow him. He's going to want a contract renegotiating or sulk about it.
Now a team like the Colts with Irsay pulling the strings might go overboard, but Brown would still be a case of buyer beware.

Dude, Antonio Brown is just burning every bridge in Pittsburgh. I'm shocked.

If the Steelers are claiming to have a deal done by week's end, that likely signifies they have a trade offer they like. Setting an artificial deadline for this coming Friday probably means they're seeing if anyone is willing to top it.

It's hilarious that AB was ready to go into Terrell Owens-traded-to-Baltimore mode if the Bills trade was legit.
You wanted out of Pittsburgh, dummy. You go where the team sends you. After all, you wanted to show everyone that you could produce anywhere, right? That it wasn't just Ben?

It was only for a couple of hours, but the "Antonio Brown in Buffalo" memes were top-friggin-notch.

I'm surprised any team wants to trade for him. Obviously an amazing player, but he's clearly a team cancer and apparently wants his deal re-done.

This is all about money for Antonio Brown and not about choosing where he wants to play. Acting like a jerk seems to come naturally to him, but acting as if he's a free agent is more than likely pre-meditated.
There is no guaranteed money left on his deal, and his contract no longer measures up to those of the highest-paid receivers. He's no longer the highest-paid--in fact, he isn't even in the top five. Odell Beckham, Jr. is now the top salary stud among NFL wide receivers. Brown's contract, which guarantees $19 million, rates only eighth in terms of guarantees among the 10 richest receivers in football.
The Steelers aren't going to renegotiate his contract, so Brown's only other option is to place artificial demands on any team expressing a desire to trade for him. This is all about him becoming the highest-paid receiver once again.

No doubt about it. Money is king... with that said, Buffalo was clearly ready to pay him, but AB wants to win too. I see Oakland coming out on top. They aren't THAT far away. They have a bunch of cap space, a need at WR. A decent QB. And 3 first rounders. Plus he'd have the chance to be the face of the first NFL team in Vegas.

I hate team cancer comments. If that were true, he would have torn that locker room apart long before this year. Quitting on your team is terrible. Which is what he did. And this offseason he's gone full TO.
With that said, he was a great teammate for the rest of his tenure with Pitt. Never made noise, stayed out of trouble, and every report has said he was always one of the first to the practice field and one of the last to leave, and hands down the hardest worker on the team. Those aren't the properties of a team cancer.
I do believe the comments last offseason that Ben and the system made him got to him. He wants to prove it wasn't either. And he wants to get one last huge payday. Someone will pay him. And then he'll be fine.

Steelers are trading Antonio Brown to the Raiders (verbal agreement).
