Braylon Edwards dealt to the Jets!

[o-BacklasH-o]

The Jets have reached an agreement to acquire Braylon Edwards from the Browns for Chansi Stuckey, Jason Trusnik and draft choices, the Jets' official website reports.

This is what I don't understand sometimes... while Braylon Edwards can be a great acquisition because he has the potential to put up big numbers and be a number 1 for the Jets, they traded away Chansi Struckey, which quickly became one of Sanchez's favorite targets. I don't get why people do that sometimes. Sure you may get an overall better and more experienced receiver, but chemistry is more important than skill.

Yea and from the look of it Edwards hasn't been producing I was watching a Browns game a little while ago and every pass that went to him was catch able and he dropped every ball I don't know if he was just not on mark with his QB but it just seems like he didn't try to catch.

Edwards is horrible. He lead the league in dropped passes, good riddance. He punched Lebron's best friend Sunday night at a club and the next day he's traded. ;D

 

Guess we know who runs this town.

You know what I find funny here is the Jets have been known to need a wide out.

 

The 49ers file tampering charges against the Jets for messing with the wide receiver they drafted.

 

A week or two later the Niners sign the receiver then all the sudden the Jets are picking up another receiver from a different team?

 

I am thinking the Niners are going to have a shitload of first and second round draft picks for the 2010 draft. The Niners already have three in the first round before the Jets are found guilty.

Crusty I was thinking the same thing lol.

I was just about to bench him for the year when i found out he was traded. Now i don't know if i should keep starting him in fantasy or not. Anyone have an idea on how well or bad he might do in the jets? I don't watch the jets so i have no idea how often they throw the deep ball.

 

[Crusty_Demons]

He can't possibly do any worse than he was doing with the browns lol

 

I have him in fantasy also.

The Jets are built around the running game. The purpose of getting Braylon Edwards was to give the Jets a better option at throwing the ball down the field. They have Jerricho Cotchery, but he needs a counterpart to spread the defense. Sanchez has a hell of an arm, but hasn't gotten to use it much because of the lack of strong wide-outs for the Jets. Expect Braylon to be thrown to a lot in the coming weeks, along with Jerricho Cotchery. The Jets are definitely a running team (offensively), but they will be looking to throw the ball a lot. Also, despite Edwards having led the league in drops over the past four or so years, expect Rex Ryan to smack Edwards straight and get him to start catching the ball all the time.

Even thought the Jets did lose to the Dolphins yesterday, Edwards didn't look too bad. He made a nice catch for the TD and another that should have been a TD. I didn't catch the whole game but IMO Edwards was a good pick up.

[Xx-CHURCHY-xX]

He did a good job yesterday. Solid performance. Most of the incomplete passes to him were errors on Sanchez's part (over/underthrowing)

[Neoblackhound]

He made Cleveland sick to their stomach.

[Resort]

he was the third overall pick a few years ago hes got major talent

he just wasnt happy in cleveland and you could tell he wasnt trying his hardest because he dropped so many passes and played very inconsistent

if he trys hard for the jets they got a major steal

he could easily be a top 10 wideout in the league with his talent level
