latest on BE to NY
-
Mario Manningham and a second rounder and I'd be happy. Didn't realize he's only 5'11" though. I'd would have done it quicker if I knew Stallworth was still around. We'd have to get a WR out of the deal as we're just too depleted not to.
Slam - Bam - Manningham.
-
kiwanuka and a 3rd rounder for braylon. i think that's fair considering kiwi has only played one full season at de and braylon is a pro-bowler.
-
I would have taken the Hixon, 2nd and 5th rounder deal. I'm not holding any grudge against edwards. He had a bad year almost every player does. I do not appreciate him copping out with saying that the fans hate him b/c he's from michigan. I could care less where he's from. What I am for is CLE making moves to build this team the right way through the Draft and acquire picks which is what this move would be for. I'd do it.

I agree. Hixon is a good looking your receiver. Add him to the 2 picks and it's a done deal in my book.

Granted it was preseason but didn't he torch us for 2tds and like 170 some yards?.... I thought he came along quite well down the stretch for them.

One's to assume that this whole 'Trade BE' took place prior to Stallworth's accident and the ousting of Joe J and Winslow, no?
I can't see us getting rid of Braylon at this point, we are paper thin at that position as it is.
We just need to acquire Torry Holt ... that's all the talk about WR this team needs. Holt or bust.
-
I'd price Braylon at a 1st and a High 2nd/Low 3rd, He is an outstanding player and this is his contract year, a potential superbowl team is gonna want him.
I'd love to have hixon as well, Hixon and a first would do it for me!
GO ZIPS!

Hixon is a super cute cinderalla story, but seriously, a teams #1?
Honest question, did anybodoy watch a NYG game after Plax shot his career in the leg? If I recall, Hixon had a few BE Dropsies wide open down the field, with the ball coming over top of him, with only the end zone in the front of him.
BE might go to NYC before the season starts, but it would only be to hangout with Jay Z and PDiddy, then he willl be on his way back to Cleveland. Best season for a WR in Cleveland history, this guy isn't going anywhere. Even with our terrible offense last year, he was our most productive player, playing with an ankle and shoulder injury, with no help on the other side of him, and 4 dimwit QBs throwing to him.
If we get him some help on the other side, he will be a Top 5 WR again. I wouldn't throw away his talent for a DE/LB that has never played in a 3-4 ,and doesn't have the size for a DE, and may be an odd fit as OLB in a 3-4, or a cinderalla WR who has the element of suprise to help him achieve, but can't perform in the starting lineup.
BTW, I've watched alll of the Akron Zips home games for the last 6 years, Hixon was good here, and made a mad clutch play to get us into the motorcity bowl, but I loved watching Jabari Arthur!

Edwards don't like playing in Cleveland . Dump his butt .
-
My only reason for trading Edwards would be his contract status. I don't believe he will stay next year and I certainly don't want to franchise him for $9+ million.
First, I don't want Mannningham because he has character issures, substance abuse problems and Michigan hands.
So, I would take Hixon and a 2nd rounder for him. That would let the Browns draft Crabtree and still have 3 2nd round picks to use on the defense. That could be Barwin/English, Moore/Chung and the center Woods.
You get 5 starters and maybe get lucky with some later drat picks. You have a receiver punch of Crabtree and Hixon with Cribbs/FA in the slot. Offense and defense are both very respectful with a fairly weak schedule.
Now, some of the OBR guys told my son that Philly don't want to let this happen and would like to jump into the ballgame. Also, Jacksonville wants a receiver but would rather tradeup to get Crabtree. Now, that would be a draft day move because they would have to be sure that Crabtree is there and want to look at Maclin a little more.
Speculation is fun. You can make all kinds of twists and turns.

I'd be all over this if I were them, but Hixon and not Manningham.
