Braylon Edwards to the Panthers???


Recommended Posts

So there are trade talks about Braylon Edwards possibly leaving the Browns. What you guys think? This guy had 80 RECs, 1289 YDS, and 16 TDS in 2007 and still has a lot of upside. In the Pro Bowl, Steve Smith was lobbying for Anquan Boldin to come over - me personally, I like Braylon Edwards if we were actually going to get a veteran reciever.

Yes I know, wide reciever is not our position of need - especially with Dwayne Jarett coming along. But obviously, Steve Smith knows something we don't know - he's still not being freed up. Offense the greatest defense? Thinking about Steve Smith, Braylon Edwards, and Moose on the same field has me drooling. Then again, I could be dreaming.

Well you guys already have you #2 and #3 receiver. Plus your in a run first offensive scheme... Braylon wants to be in a passing offense... which with Jake Delhomme passing, Braylon wouldn't see more then 6 touchdowns receiving as Jake struggles to throw over 15 touchdowns a season.

    • So you believe that Levis had a better day throwing deep because one of those was a TDs? Asking for clarity on that as it was already clearly demonstrated that Bryce would've had a TD had Moore not dropped it in the back of the end zone. The entire purpose of their metric is to look at the throw and grade that because the QB has complete control over it. That was made abundantly clear from the video provided prior to that. Nobody is trying to manifest him as a top-10 player. He had performances during his return from benching that measured in the top-10 in different metrics. The issue at play is that because those stats support Bryce's progress (and refutes that his ceiling is his floor), that you and other people that don't care for Bryce being the Panthers' QB are going out of your way to either a) ignore factual data, or b) cast uncertainty on the methodology. There's no actual interest in stats and facts like as you mentioned previously. All of the non-PFF info, like passing yards in a single game, is also not entirely reliant on the QB. That's one of the points that Jimmy has hammered home but y'all continue to try and sidestep: that the ability to throw deep relies more on elements like timing rather than physically having a howitzer for an arm. Yes, arm strength does play a role but let's not be coy: the entire narrative that Bryce is not a capable deep ball thrower is 100% rooted in the same reasoning that folks had for thinking he wouldn't survive an NFL hit... bro is too smol. We have plenty of data (AND film) that show this. Whether or not the people that don't want it to be true stop clinging to what they want to believe instead is up to them.
    • This isn’t a bad deal for the right people. Sure not everyone has that kind of money to burn. But $10k for everything including all travel (that includes a private flight), lodging, meals, tix to the game? Meeting former players? It’s a lot of logistics that if done solo would take a lot of time to coordinate. When I was younger I spent my time to save money, and now I spend my money to save time. 
    • Displays of luxury spending like this are the only thing that will wake up the poor peasants currently shouting at each other. At least, that's my only way to optimistically look at this trash.
