The Buffalo Bills desperately needed to improve upon last year’s 31st-ranked passing attack, and GM Brandon Beane picked the splashiest way to do it: trading for the troubled, extremely talented Antonio Brown. Per a late-night report from NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, the Bills are closing in on a deal with the Pittsburgh Steelers to take a star receiver off their hands.
Brown, who turns 31 in July, has been one of the best receivers in the NFL for each of the last six seasons. During that stretch, he’s been voted to the Pro Bowl every single year, and chosen as a first-team All-Pro in a four year stretch from 2014-2017.
