NFL Draft: Looking at the 23 players chosen before Aaron Rodgers in 2005
A network has signed Youtuber Logan Paul to a seven-figure deal to fight Antonio Brown, if the WR accepts the challenge.
Antonio Brown isn’t in the NFL anymore and still finds ways to be in the headlines.

The New York Post is reporting DAZN has signed Youtuber Logan Paul to a $1 million deal for a fight with Brown, who has yet to accept but has been working out with a boxing trainer. Brown and Paul have feuded with each other over social media.
If Brown agrees to what sources said is an offer in excess of $1 million and maybe multiple millions plus incentives, then DAZN hopes to schedule the fight for April in Las Vegas around the same time as the NFL Draft.
“This would be the biggest fight of 2020,” Paul, who has 20 million YouTube subscribers, told The Post in a statement through DAZN. “I’m ready to sign my contract and punch Antonio Brown in the face on behalf of his baby mama. Right now, we’re waiting on him, but I’m not sure if he actually wants to fight or if he’s teasing it for clout.”
Brown’s troubling behavior has forced the hand of his agent, Drew Rosenhaus, who is no stranger to controversial clients.
Still, it says volumes when you realize Rosenhaus has seen enough — for now — of the wide receiver and his antics.
Adam Schefter of ESPN reports Rosenhaus is conditionally cutting ties with the free agent.
Agent Drew Rosenhaus conditionally terminated his relationship with Antonio Brown today until the free-agent WR seeks counsel, per an NFLPA source. Rosenhaus wrote in the letter that the NFLPA received today that he would like to work with Brown, but not until he first gets help.

Of course, Rosenhaus has put stipulations on his exit and is making sure the door is open enough for him to keep Brown as a client if he can get his life together.
Aaron Rodgers lasted until the 24th pick in the first round of the 2005 NFL Draft. Who were the players chosen before the QB?
Sometimes great players slip in the NFL Draft. Aaron Rodgers did not fall anywhere near as far as Tom Brady, but the QB wasn’t thrilled the San Francisco 49ers passed on him and he lasted until the 24th pick in 2005. So, how did the players chosen before Rodgers do in their careers?
On this day in 2005, Aaron Rodgers was a little upset the @49ers didn't select him in the @NFLDraft and gave @DennisKPIX a classic sound bite. pic.twitter.com/gxY6oCexI1
