    • Pittsburgh gets: 2019 3rd round draft pick (66th overall) and 2019 5th round draft pick (141st overall)
    • Oakland gets: Antonio Brown on a new 3-year deal
    • Antonio Brown gets: 3-year contract worth $50.125M (max. $54.125M, guaranteed $30.125M)

    This time it's not a false alarm. I'm actually surprised that Oakland didn't have to give up a 1st rounder, considering they have 3 from the Mack and Cooper trades. This also makes AB the highest paid WR in the NFL, pushing Odell Beckham Jr. on to 2nd place. Definitely an interesting development since everyone assumed Oakland wanted to go on a full rebuild mode with young blood, but they might hold on to Derek Carr and AB as their core and hope for an excellent 2019 draft.
