Didn't stop our boy from wanting to trade Fournette and a SECOND ROUND PICK for him though. LOL https://www.duvalpride.com/showthread.ph...pid1184122

Yeah how many people thought AB would be out of football a year after the trade rumours with the Steelers? Almost nobody

Two teams were willing to gamble on a guy who was a known problem because they thought they had a strong enough locker room, coaching staff and culture to outweigh his glaring problems. They were dead wrong. Just as you were dead wrong to want to give away a high pick and a productive RB in order to bring a cancer into a team that clearly DID NOT have a strong staff, locker room, or culture.

There is none because you had no clue just like nobody else did. Everyone knew he had some issues but it is much worse now, the guy had a anti suicide suit on in court and is facing a life sentence. I'm sure you knew all that would happen along with the sexuall assault allegations. We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!
Before AB was traded it was simply "Oh this dude is a big diva WR and potential locker room problem" Which progressed rapidly to all of the helmet issues and foot burn once he got to the Raiders which kinda let people know he was pretty unhinged.
The first 4 or 5 years AB was seen as someone who was freakishly devoted to the game and working (01-26-2020, 05:32 PM)flgatorsandjags Wrote:(01-26-2020, 05:21 PM)NYC4jags Wrote: Two teams were willing to gamble on a guy who was a known problem because they thought they had a strong enough locker room, coaching staff and culture to outweigh his glaring problems. Oh, I can find you posts of me calling him a total headcase from two years ago. I thought he was certifiable ever since he did the helicopter landing on the practice field at steelers training camp and I've been vocal about it. The stuff he's been saying in interviews since that period has been full of red flags for severe narcissism and general delusion. None of his current problems surprise me. I'm sorry you thought he'd be worth a player and a pick, but you were a fool to think so.

From the article: Teammate: "This has been brewing for years." Did I know he would go this sideways? Probably not. But I always said he wasn't worth the trouble. Maybe I'm just better in tune with his issues since my in-laws are from Pittsburgh. ![[Image: IMG-1452.jpg]](https://i.postimg.cc/6Qq83BtM/IMG-1452.jpg)

This guy has been sucking up really hard recently to get back into the league.

If he's ever cleared of the charges and the NFL says he's facing no suspension I would not be surprised if some team will take one last chance on this dude. I just hope it isn't us. We have enough dysfunction going on with this franchise |
