Raiders acquired OLB Kamerion Wimbley from the Browns in exchange for a third-round pick in the 2010 NFL Draft.
Wimbley, the No. 13 overall pick in 2006, is just 26 years old and led Cleveland in sacks last season, so the move is surprising at first glance. However, the Browns have stockpiled quality depth at outside linebacker, and could turn to Marcus Benard (3.5 sacks in '09), trusty Jason Trusnik, gifted Alex Hall, or 2009 second-round pick David Veikune opposite Matt Roth. In Oakland, Wimbley will likely start at left defensive end, replacing Greg Ellis. He'll be playing with his hand in the dirt for the first time since Florida State. Mar. 14 - 5:25 pm et

I think Cleveland did alright in this trade considering what little Arizona got for Boldin.

When I played Madden a lot a couple of months ago, I traded for Wimbley and made him my RDE. He is a fucking beast... 95 OVR.

Wow, this is a steal. I don't know why the Browns didn't get more value out of him.

Yeah, this is basically how you cheat franchise mode. Most linebackers on that game go up 10 to 20 points overall if you move them to end.

The Tambi Hali Madden Syndrome I like to call it. 78 OVR OLB transforms into an 88 OVR DE. Mike Vrabel is even a 90 OVR at DE lol

Wow, the Browns continue to clean house, almost giving players away.
