Braylon trade question
-
To be fair, MoMass is still really an unknown commodity (even Andre Davis had a really good game his rookie year in CLE, and a similar his second year).
To say Stuckey is an emerging WR is to say Nate Washington is. Stuckey put up decent number last year w/ Favre at QB (what 2nd or 3rd WR option hasn't had numbers similar w/ Favre at QB?). His numbers are the same as Edwards this year, but he is emerging (and got traded)?
Both guys may end up being fine players in CLE, but let's not make them out to be something they haven't proven themselves to be. It's as silly as when before last season people were trying to say Edwards was one of the best, if not the best WR in the NFL.

The point was not that these guys are going to come here and be All Pro. The point was to say we didn't give Edwards away, we got a good return of players and draft picks for a expiring contract, underachieving cancer.

See, I am not willing to say that yet. It's all pie in the sky right now. We'll see if either player received makes any significant contribution and those draft picks amount to anything (not like we can say the Browns are known for making the most out of draft picks).
It's always nice to get something (though not like Edwards was leaving for nothing, he is going to be a RFA, so at minimum there would have been a compensation pick) instead of nothing. But in reality, CLE may still end up getting nothing out of it.

Winslow on pace for 70 catches? LOL!!! Talk about stupid.
I thought the same thing, but...
Winslow: 17 Rec 155 yards 2 tds
Season: 68 Rec 620 yards 8 tds (on pace for)
So if you wanna say you're right and he'll fall short by 2 receptions....go for it, but otherwise I say to you "RestinPeace making comments without doing research? LOL!!! Talk about stupid."

He has to stay healthy enough to make it through the season..how many seasons do you think he has? Long term thinking, smart thinking was behind that trade..
