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.

    • I read that Pittsburgh is a possibility.  I think of college QB studs who had some form of mental quirk yet tons of talent--but their issue made being a team leader difficult and it led to their demise--going back:  Jamarcus Russell, Art Schlichter, Jeff George, etc. I think people forget that the QB must not only have talent, but they must lead.  
    • I wish I knew more details, but the NIL money to 20-year olds combined with easy access to gambling sites is a side effect that these kids may not have considered.  To your point,A famous 2009 Sports Illustrated article titled “How (and Why) Athletes Go Broke” estimated that 78% of retired NFL players go bankrupt or face significant financial stress within two years of leaving the league.  I am guessing that ego and $$$ and the thrill of competition (most pro athletes love competition because they are the winners) makes it a powerful temptation.  Throw in the ease of gambling on your phone which is always in your hand, and I see your point x 10.
    • Freeling got some reps at RT when they gave Moton a rest day--I sorta hope Freeling gets brought along slowly as you describe.  It would be better for him for reasons you provide.  We have a really good problem.
