The Cleveland Browns have agreed to trade troubled wide receiver Braylon Edwards to the New York Jets on Wednesday morning.
Terms of the deal are still being finalized but it is believed the Jets agreed to send key special teams player Jason Trusnik, wide receiver Chansi Stuckey and a pair of draft picks to Cleveland. The draft picks are the final details of the trade and are believed to be a 3rd and 5th round selections.
There was talks swirling since the off-season that Edwards would be dealt. Then there was talks he would be out by the trade deadline. After a game on Sunday where he was catchless against the Bengals he found a way to make the headlines in other ways…
Late Monday morning outside an Ohio night club Braylon Edwards caused some trouble with Lebron James and friends. Finally punching one of Lebron James friends and sending him to the ground. Charges were not filed, but Lebron James went on to say it is a jealousy thing with Braylon. This seemed to be the last and final straw for coach Eric Mangini and the Cleveland Browns.
There is no doubt Edwards has talent, and could potentially be a top 7-8 wide receiver in this league but; it has widely been discussed that his first priority is being a celebrity rather than a football player. Let’s see if that improves any in the big city of New York.
