September 8, 20197 yr Not comparable at all, but I remember Ocho Chinco signing with the Pats and couldn't make the gameday roster because he couldn't get on the same page with Brady. AB's talent is off the charts; but he better have chemistry with Belichek and Brady or he will prove to be a disruptive nightmare for his 3rd consecutive team.

September 8, 20197 yr Most reports said that Ocho never could grasp the playbook. He never struck me as a scholar.
September 8, 20197 yr AB goes from being viewed as an absolute knucklehead that no one would want in their locker room to someone who had a plan all along to sabotage his career with the Raiders and sign with the Pats. Everything from the helmet, to the arguments with Mike Mayock now all seems at least plausible that it was all one long con. I mean think about it, he turned this helmet thing in to a huge endorsement with Xenith. He turned the Mayock argument into a release. Maybe, just maybe AB is a lot smarter than we all give him credit for? The plan was to go from 30 million to 9 million? Yeah I don’t think so. :lol2:
September 8, 20197 yr The plan was to go from 30 million to 9 million? Yeah I don’t think so. :lol2: Well said!
September 8, 20197 yr All things considered I would like to see all NFL Contracts be one year deals. The logistics of that would be a nightmare, but I agree with the idea.
September 11, 20197 yr This new stuff coming out just seems off. Not saying he’s innocent or guilty, but something definitely doesn’t seem right.

September 11, 20197 yr You just know the Pats Coach is loving this. Edited September 11, 20197 yr by Jumper_Dad
September 11, 20197 yr Or might make more sense of why the Raiders released him. Something about it just seems “convenient” timing to come out with this.
September 11, 20197 yr Something about it just seems “convenient” timing to come out with this. I kept seeing people say that. Wouldnt have been more convenient when he was guaranteed 30m?
September 11, 20197 yr Did anyone see why it was a civil lawsuit and not a criminal charge? A different question: was she claiming he forced her or otherwise used violence or is it a case of Me Too where a person in a position of power takes advantage of it to seduce someone who wants a job? It is odd, to me, that this would only be a civil suit, if true. While AB is not a likable person, I am waiting to see what develops before forming an opinion.
