Trade 2: DEEBO

Moments after the bombshell that Antonio Brown was jobless once again, under mounting controversy, the Grabbers washed their hands of the troubled wideout.

PAWNEE ACQUIRES WR ANTONIO BROWN
MAR-A-LAGO ACQUIRES WR DEEBO SAMUEL

The Grabbers weathered the initial Storm with Brown and were rewarded with a 15.4 outing last week. Had they made the decision to deal him shortly thereafter, they'd surely have reaped a greater reward. With his value plummeting (odds are, Brown doesn't play another down this season) the Grabbers did well for themselves, adding an electric rookie that actually outscored Brown in week two. Deebo Samuel is unlikely to be a weekly contributor, but with a substantial role and room for target growth, he's more than worthy of a roster spot, and weekly volatility is preferential to a black hole.

For Pawnee this is a massive swing for the fences- unlikely to connect, though stranger things have happened. Should AB get his name cleared, he it's certainly plausible that another team would take a chance one of the most talented receivers on planet Earth, regardless of his increasingly apparent unhinged persona. Short term it means the Pride expect Alshon Jeffery to suit up on Sunday, as the team has no other substitute on the roster until Golden Tate returns from suspension in week five. It's a risk/reward scenario that the championship or bust franchise feels confident it can stomach. Time will tell!
