Breaking News: NFL

RS

Well, Breaking News just occurred, Wide Receiver Braylon Edwards was just traded from the Cleveland Browns to the New York Jets. The final details of the trade have not been disclosed but NFL.com sources are reporting that WR Chansi Stuckey, LB Jason Trusnik and two undisclosed draft picks are part of the compensation package.

If the drafts picks are a fourth and fifth rounder, I’m all for this trade. Despite being a moron who picks fights with LeBron James’s entourage, Braylon Edwards still has the potential to be a dominating wide receiver in this league provided that he has a good quarterback throwing him the ball. Don’t let the last two disappointing seasons get you down on this guy, when he is happy and motivated he can do big things. Think Randy Moss going from Oakland to the Patriots. He might not have that big of an improvement but watch for this guy to immediately become an impact guy for the Jets. Mark Sanchez now has a legitimate number one target and Jerricho Cotchery can thrive in the number two spot. The Jets realized that they needed a big play guy after getting thrashed by the Saints and I applaud the front office for getting this done.

In other NFL news, Michael Crabtree finally stopped being a punk and signed a 6-year deal with the 49ers. I guess he realized that having millions of dollars now is better than having it next year. I really hate when draft picks pull this type of bullsh*t. I understand you have to look out for your financial situation but at the same time you’re an unproven commodity and you sure as hell aren’t going to give any of that money back if you flop so just sign the contract appropriate for your draft slot and don’t sacrifice team chemistry for the sake of a few dollars. If you’re the player you think you are, you can always holdout later for more money.
The 49ers were already rolling without Crabtree but with the signing, Shaun Hill has a go-to target and if Crabtree is legit (I have a strong feeling that he is not), he can open up the seams for Vernon Davis who is already off to a nice start.
