http://www.nfl.com/news/story?id=09000d5d81338c05&template=with-video-with-comments&confirm=true The New York Jets traded two players and two picks to get Edwards. Took a further look with the link I have provided. Thoughts?
Seems like a low risk trade. Just a 3rd and 5th round pick plus a couple of mediocre players. I'll take a guess and say the abysmal Qb situation in Cleveland didn't help.
Yeah, good trade for the Jets. Edwards has been a disappointment, but he still has the talent to be a dangerous threat. Hopefully the change of scenery will get his career back on track. Man, I'm really liking the team the Jets have put together.
Edwards is a very nice target for Sanchez. I like the deal a lot for them. The Jets are putting together a great fucking team.
I don't think very much of Braylon anymore. The dude just doesn't have the work ethic and motivation to take advantage of his enormous natural talent and become a top-tier wide reciever. That said, it doesn't mean he isn't a good receiver. He might not deserve his contract or hype, but he is capable of keeping defenses honest as a #1 WR. And at that price, it's not like the Jets are risking a whole lot. Man am I glad the Giants didn't cave into the Browns' demands over the offseason. And on the flipside, how stupid is Cleveland for not lowering their ridiculous demands and accepting a better package of picks and a better/younger WR from the Giants in the summer?
