    Filed to ESPN - HOT Browns just traded WR Braylon Edwards to the Jets. Waiting on trade terms.
    Deal for Braylon Edwards includes Jason Trusnik, the Jets core special teams player and picks - and maybe a WR. Trying to piece together.

    Last thing Sanchez needs is a guy with stone hands. Bad move by the Jets imo.

    Apaarently chansi stuckey is part of the deal too. I wonder what the draft choices are. Shouldnt really be higher than a 3 IMO, esp with the additional players going the other way
    The Jets announced this morning that they have reached an agreement in principle to acquire Browns WR Braylon Edwards in exchange for WR Chansi Stuckey, LB Jason Trusnik and undisclosed draft choices.

    Edwards, in his fifth pro season, is a downfield threat who's averaged 15.5 yards a reception in his career. The 6'3", 215-pounder has 10 receptions for 139 yards and no touchdowns this season, following up on a 2008 campaign in which he had 55 receptions last season for 873 yards and three TDs. And he had a phenomenal '07, catching 80 balls for 1,289 yards and 16 TDs. Before the deal, Stuckey was considered the Jets' No. 2 receiver and had 11 catches for 120 yards with a touchdown in the Jets' 3-1 start. A seventh-round pick out of Clemson in 2007, Stuckey missed that '07 campaign with a foot injury.
    Stuck, playing primarily the slot role before moving outside this fall, had 32 receptions in '08 for 359 yards. He also caught a TD in each of his first three games, becoming the first active player to achieve that milestone since 2002.

    Trusnik is a former undrafted free agent who carved out a role for himself in the NFL. After the Jets' Week 3 win over the Tennessee Titans, the 6'4", 250-pound reserve 'backer was named AFC Special Teams Player of the Week. In that contest, Trusnik forced a fumble on Ryan Mouton and recovered it, and had another first-quarter tackle on kickoff coverage.

    There was an incident over the weekend that involved Edwards at the View Ultralounge & Nightclub in Cleveland. Both the Cleveland Police Department and the National Football League are investigating a reported fight that occurred outside the club that may have included Edwards.
    An interesting deal for the Jets. It gives them a big name, bad reputation WR with a trend for dropping some balls. (sounds a bit like TO there:p)



    Its a busy day today for the WRs, with the crabtree deal earlier and now this!
