Edwards wants out of Cleveland?
PHILADELPHIA -- You kind of saw this one coming.
With the Cleveland Browns struggling mightily and Braylon Edwards in the midst of a rough season, the star receiver finally let his emotions flow following their 30-10 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.
Edwards had one of his better games this year with five catches for 102 yards, but he was not in a good mood after team failed to score an offensive touchdown for the fourth straight game.
Apparently Edwards has been upset with trade rumors and also had some choice words for the fans and media, who have been on him this season for his inconsistency and leading the NFL in dropped passes.
"I do want to be here next year and everyone wants it to be a perfect situation, but that does not always happen," Edwards said. "I just have to do what is asked of me no matter where I end up playing. I have realized since being in Cleveland that the organization appreciates me but not the fans and the media. Since day one I have been a marked man."
Add Edwards to the growing list of unhappy players in Cleveland.

I love these super stars that throw their teams and fans under the bus when they screw up. Maybe the season wouldn't have been so bad if he could catch the ball.
I sure remember the smile on his face when he got that big bonus and contract right after he was drafted.
He can hit the road for all I care. I'll take a guy like Lee Evans any day over this clown.

Maybe if you didn't drop 20 passes things would be different.

Exactly, does he think he'd get booed if he CAUGHT those 20 passes. Fans and media my ass. -
Probably a lot of guys on the team are trying to get out of town.

Why are WRs such ass****s. And very high paid a**holes at that.
It's always someone elses fault. There happy when their the center of attraction, but they have to be the center of attraction or they cry. What has Edwards done this year to give him the right to say say anything but, "I'm sorry, I let my team down". Instead he want out of Cleveland............................Don't let the door hit you in the ass and leave the bonus that has been prorated over the life of your contract.
I'd ship his ass to Detriot and see how happy he'd be.

Edwards meant to clearly say he wants out, but he dropped the ball.

Am I missing something here?
He said "I DO want to be here....but that does not always happen"
In the context of being unhappy about TRADE RUMORS.
As for the fans and media comment...so what. He still said he WANTS TO BE HERE. He has NEVER asked for a trade (like K2 did, before he wanted to be here).
And to be honest...he was marked here pretty good by the fans (comments about typical Michigan WR come to mind) and the media (pretty brutal EXCEPT for last year)....
I'm sorry, from the little blurb that Walker posted it sounds more like he wants to stay but thinks he is going to get shipped off.
But hey, maybe I'm missing something.

The title of his article would imply the quote is disingenuous? Maybe BE's sentiment was "I wan't to be here, but nobody else wants me here, and they haven't since draft day when I become a marked man, so if I play somewhere else, so be it".
It does make you wonder if this writer was present to judge the tone in BE's voice and see his body language.

I heard his interview on WTAM this morning. Nothing was taken out of context, he blames the fans and media for the fact we don't blow him for personally costing us the season early on.
-
I think Braylon is becoming borderline depressed about his season. His body language indicated that last night, too. He's depressed that he dropped so many balls, he's depressed that the fans booed him for it, he's depressed about the trade rumors, and he's depressed that the Browns are 4-10. He's in a bad place right now, I saw that in his eye last night.
A new coach and a new training camp and he'll be fine.

I agree, however the problem I got with him saying anything is he has an ok game not a great game but an ok game and he feels justified to open his mouth. This season and what's happening is not all about him. Granted he has been a large part of their failure. Doesn't he lead the NFL in dropped passes? I for one do not want to see him go but instead of throwing a pity party for himself he needs to suck it up. Right now I do not know of many teams willing to bring in the leagues leading pass dropper. The only 2 players who should be able to say anything is Cribbs and Dawson. The fans are pissed!!!! We all are so freaking tired of being one rung above Detroit as the leagues laughing stock. If we are going to win and I mean win right now I hate to say it but we need Bill the Chin. He is the only coach who can come into the system and personnel that we have in place, in the AFC north and be successful. I can't stand to go through a whole dismantling of the team again. No more new systems. Do not bring in Marty or another unproven coordinator go get Bill no matter what the cost. DO IT RIGHT NOW!!! GET NEXT SEASON STARTED THE DAY THIS ONE IS OVER!!! No more building years. We have talent. We need a coach who inspires the players to play smash mouth football, AFC North football. If we want to improve the outlook for the players then we have to bring in a confidence builder. The players know Cowher can win in the AFC north he knows the teams and if we want to beat the Steelers who better to direct that than the man who coached them for years. Here is what will happen next year if a new coach with an unproven new system comes in... Brady will become the biggest bust in Cleveland since Tim Couch, we will have a guaranteed losing season, and Phil Savage will lose his job. IF YOU WANT THE FANS TO BELIEVE GIVE US A REASON...GIVE US A COACH THAT WE HAVE CONFIDENCE IN. I WANT A WINNING TEAM!!!!!!!!!!!

He is far from alone, at least give him credit for having the "sack" to say it. Perhaps trying to motivate the Front office to make better thought out moves. Hes a potentially geat player... surrounded by a totally dysfunctional organization. Yes he needs to step up and make the plays...but his biggest issue is LOSING. It makes you say things you might normally choke down. I would take him in Pittsburgh.
Climbing the Stairway...To SEVEN !! -
Media - at least during last night's game, after he caught the ball a few times, the announcers did say 'he caught that one'. At one time they said nothing more, as if to infer everyone knows Braylon's story. Not sure on him, whether he needs to go or stay, but if he wants to do air guitar every time he gets into the endzone, maybe showing some class will get some respect from the fans ???
I sure liked him last year, but did'nt when he was going after Frye (like a TO wannabe) a few seasons ago. If he'd get his head straight, would like to see him stay and ressurect his value, but if he acts like he's due somethjing he's not, good luck in your new future pal.
Like many have said, a new coach with discipline would either make or break him. The good news is the 'make' results can be a great receiver.
