Probably not that much knowing what the Browns have been trading people for lately.

This officially makes the Browns the worst team in the NFL, don't you think? Wooohoo! We don't suck as much as they do!

Id be afraid to guess,but Im betting on too much.Then again as stupid as Man-Genius is,who knows.....ROFL

Ahaha, according to Mortensen Edwards got traded because he doesn't like Mangini..since he took over and put in all of the rules and such..

Edwards filed a ton of grievances against them.

Here's the update on what they gave up...

jets have traded for braylon edwards. they sent two picks, wr chansi stuckey and linebacker jason trusnick to cleveland

Stuckey has to be upset. LOL

I bet....:doh!:

Edwards is 2 years removed from 1300 yards and 16 TDs, I say the Jets are winning this deal going away.

They traded a WR who is a 3 and a special teamer and probably some mid round picks for a guy who can be a 1 all because Mangini and him couldn't get along.

Well he's just not fitting in their system...the Chiefs sure got over the Jets on that one!

That is pretty much what Edwards got traded for, he wouldn't bend for a Pats guy...

i would bet that there is more to the story. like edwards punching someone the other night and being investigated by the nfl for it

I already put what the more to it is, when Mangini came in he put in all these things where guys got fined etc etc.

Edwards filed a ton of grievances and basically didn't get along with him so this happened.

The Bucs replaced the Browns as worst team according to several. HA

Hey show the Chiefs some respect.....we suck every bit as bad as they do.

The draft picks are expected to be a 3 and a 5.

Well that sucks. WR is one of the few positions where the Jets really didn't have much above-average talent.

Mangenius is setting up the Browns well to be a very good team in about 2012 or 2013. Too bad he wont' last anywhere near that long...

Weird season ...... I don't remember so many trade transactions during the season. It used to be that your roster was set at the beginning of the season. You might tweek off the your PS or wavier wire, but the trade deadline in football was not that big of deal. This year it has been non stop trades.

funny that it happened right after the nfl stated that they were investigating him to see if he violated the conduct policy, for hitting a guy outside a club. but yeah keep thinking you know the only reason

Jason, you're being naive.

Cleveland has been trying to trade Edwards ever since Mangini took over. The Jets and the Giants were both rumored to be interested around the draft.

This alleged assault might have been the final straw, but it's far from the reason he's a Jet this morning.

thats exactly what i'm trying to say here. i'm sure they had problems, thats a given with the reports out there, but it seems like they finally tired of his act when he punched that guy and now is being looked at for the conduct policy.

I think that just happens to be the timing, they were trying to trade him regardless of that.

maybe, but i would say it didnt help the situation

The Browns got 3rd and 5th rounders from the Jets.

That's just highway robbery for the Jets. A special teams guy, a 3rd WR and 2 low picks for a guy who had 1600 yards 2 years ago.

These are the moves we should be making. I know we aren't one player away, but if you can get a young super talented player for low draft picks, Pioli should be throwing his hat in the ring.

I know it's unrealistic, but one can dream.

This.

You don't pull off trades like this in that short a timeframe.

They've been working on this for a while.

Hell, they've probably been talking on and off since the draft.

See, that's the thing Frank.

It's not unrealistic. It happened.

You're right, this is EXACTLY the kind of moves we should be making, but we didn't.

Why?

We all know the answer, and IMO, it's bullshit.

Christ, a team is giving away a 26 year old, 1600 yard WR, and we're not interested because he doesn't fit our personal profile?

Dick Vermiel's profile is back!

LMAO....

This is exactly how you put a young QB in a position to succeed.

Maybe next time, our FO will learn this lesson.

Great move by the Jets... in one offseason they get a defensive minded HC that revamps that side of the ball, while drafting your QBotF and now trading for a young stud #1 WR

The arrow is pointing up for the JETS. Edwards, Cotchery, Keller, T Johnes, Washington...

I just don't see how Mangini can surive for much longer... geez. They have nothing for a ground game... a QB debacle, they traded their TE in offseason and now this...

Ugly.

You didn't even count that they used another pick on Shonn Greene who is likely Jones replacement as the horse back next to Washington.

What the hell does this do to the value of Jerricho Cotchery in FF? Is Cotchery still the #1 or does he get bumped to #2?

LeBron James called the mayor of Cleveland and asked him to intervene. There just wasn't room for both of them in that town.

I don't know but I'm glad I have Thomas Jones. :evil:

It might actually help him with Edwards and Keller on the field together he'll always get singled up with the 2nd CB now.

This.

Pioli is going to have to have one hell of an off-season for me to be as excited as I was when he was hired.

He's really made some horrid decisions here.

I don't have a problem paying Casssel. But paying him when he has no receivers, no TE, no line is like putting a muscle car engine in an el camino that doesn't run.

Going to the 3-4 and hiring Clancy freaking Pendergast is another nonsense move. We have no linebackers. No nose guard. But yes, let's go round peg square hole all over again.

The right 53 can lick my taint.

Esto

This right 53 is going to be as popular as Carl's 5-year plan. I can feel it.

Pretty much...it's off to a smashing start that's for sure.

Im with you, except for the paying Cassel comment.

We held his rights. There was no upside to signing him to a long term deal before seeing him even come remotely close to the success he had in NE.

Show promise, get a long term deal.

Don't, and we're out nothing but the one year franchise number. That we're basically paying him anyway with the long term deal/guarantees.

You and I both know they were never going to approach Cassel that way, as soon as he was traded for he was their guy for the next 5 years atleast.

If you trade a 2 for a guy then don't draft Sanchez and let Cassel walk after 1 year Pioli looks like an incompetent moron and is made fun of.

Cassel will likely be this teams QB as long as Pioli is here, they're married.

Ego. /LJ

In my eyes, this may be two strikes against Pioli. First was the mismanaged offensive line, now it's zero effort in making a play for a 26 year-old, proven receiver traded for nothing. Like Bad Guy said, if someone's giving up a player like this for next to nothing, you JUMP on that. But I'm not an NFL general manager, so what do I know...

It's his first season. I'm giving him plenty of time to improve the team. I'm still behind the guy, but while I'm supportive, I'm skeptical of these moves, or lack thereof. Better be one HELL of an offseason come late winter.

Absolutely all GM's have ego's that's the QB he chose as his guy, he will start for atleast 5 years regardless of performance.

I find it kind of comical that Cassel is getting garbage time TD's to make his stats look nice though...but that still doesn't change his abysmal yardage totals in blowouts.

Well, it doesn't matter.

Mark Sanchez has no pocket presense, and isn't helping the Jets to wins.

I know this, cause the reerunian told me so.

Yes fire pioli!

God, we have the best fans in the NFL.

Wow, that was Talking Can-like.

Who said fire him?

Find a post, and quote it.

I love the strawman that gets put up if you dare question something.

Being unhappy with the moves he's made does not mean I'm calling him out to be canned.

God, we have some complete reeruns on here that can't read or comprehend anything.

I would definitely agree, but Haley doesn't give a shit about contract status. That's the only reason why I would disagree because of Todd's history with QBs.

probably but IMO you would have to be a little naive yourself to believe that the public relations part didnt play in some. Do you think that a browns player having a problem with lebron james and his crew does good for the browns PR dept? Thats probably why it happened now. The fans will maybe be more receptive to the deal now.

I read all the posts... it sounds to me like a bunch of little kids pissing their pants and kicking the dirt because the organization is in transition... well, guess what guys: losing sucks. But we asked for this... and for the time being we have to have patience. I seem to remember the same little kids where jumping for joy in January when SP came to town.

I understand that the losing is painful, I'm going through it too...

Can we at least not bitch about bryalon freakin' edwards and the Jets... BE is a ball dropping ****ing joke who was just run out of town because he assaulted some one.

I don't think the deal was that bad for Cleveland. When you're rebuilding, four-for-one is never a bad thing. Yeah, it's a third WR. A ST guy... but a good ST guy. And a 3rd and 5th aren't exactly "low-round" picks, IMO. All for a guy who hasn't done much in the past season and a quarter, a guy who seemed to be a headcase for Cleveland, a guy who didn't want to be there and didn't want to play for that coach.

Seems like a fair deal for both sides. Jets filled a major need which might make the difference between 9-7 and missing the playoffs, or 10-6 or 11-5 and having the #4 WC slot or even winning the AFC East. Browns got four building chips for a guy who was a malcontent.

I can handle losing with this team. However, that doesn't mean I sit by like a minion like you and question any decision made by this front office. It has nothing to do with transition either.

I guess I'd rather piss my pants than be a yes person and get in line to suck on the teet of every move Pioli makes and call it "transition".

He's made several questionable moves this year and basically wasted a year of the "transition" time because of ignoring the offensive line and supplying his 60 million dollar QB with someone who can protect the investment.

It's really like building this huge house in a flood zone and not getting insurance to cover yourself.

It's not about contract status.

It's about the fact that Pioli traded for his guy and basically hitched his wagon to him.

Haley might not care about contract status, but you can damn sure bet that he cares about his boss.

LeBron runs that town. All would-be usurpers to the throne of King James are sent packing. CC Sabathia wins the Cy Young and is promptly shipped to Milwaukee. Cliff Lee wins the Cy Young and is exiled to Philadelphia. Braylon Edwards thinks he can start a revolution? He gets sent to the maximum security prison known as New York City; he'd best not get on Snake Plissken's bad side.

Wait....it was only for those two guys and a 3rd and a 5th? ****....I would give that up for Edwards. Honestly....they can have a 3rd, 5th, Bradley and whomever they want.

****ing dumb.

I don't know about several but I thought Pioli and Haley would have done more to address the O line. That said this year is about building the bottom of the roster not the top. IMO trading for Edwards doesn't fit that at this point.


PhilFree:arrow:

I guess New York needs someone to drop the crystal ball on new year's eve.

Ummm.....get your facts straight.

From the beginning I have agreed that we were probably going to get killed this year and win maybe 2-4 games. But I NEVER asked for a GM to come in and do the following things:

1. Trade a 2nd round pick for a career backup QB.
2. Switch to a 3-4 defense when we don't have the pieces. All while hiring a Defensive Coor. that got fired from his previous team because his defenses were always inconsistent.
3. Draft a 3-4 DE with a top 5 pick....especially when there are two well thought of QBs coming out in the draft.
4. Neglecting the offensive line until the 5th round and signing Goff to start.
5. Signing said career backup QB to a $60 million dollar deal before he even proves he can do anything on this team.

I lost out on my waiver wire claim of picking up Mendenhall for Edwards. Looks like that might be good news at this point. I needed a strong 3rd WR more than a backup RB anyway.

That's not even all of the questionable actions from Pioli to this point either. If you're not scratching your head right now, you've been desensitized by Carl Peterson. And if you are scratching your head wondering what itches, those are little red flags.

I don't think anyone is screaming for the guy's head, but he's making a lot of WTF? moves.

I remember Pioli saying something of the line as "If our QB works out excellent, but I'm not afraid of admitting a mistake if he doesn't"

THE RAGE IS MOUNTING.

Great deal for the Jets. And it's starting to really say something around here as every positive story that comes out for other teams is evolving into a negative story for the Chiefs on ChiefsPlanet.

I know I'm not like, the beacon of restraint on this board, but get a grip. This is going to be a very long bridge to a respectable team.

Yeah I don't think Pioli and Cassel are tied to the hip like some others think. It's certainly not in Haleys history.

PhilFree:arrow:

Dude....no one is calling for Pioli and Haley to be fired. Seriously...some people need to understand. We're only questioning Pioli and Haley's offseason moves. Fixing the offensive line should have been priority #1. It doesn't matter if you have Kyle Boller or Peyton Manning as your QB....if you can't protect him....he'll play like complete shit.

I'll give him the benefit of the doubt on trading for Cassel. If he thinks he has it...then fine. But you don't trade for a QB...sign him to a $60 million dollar deal and then don't give him any blockers or weapons. It's ****ing reeruned.

Goff and Niswanger wouldn't start for ANY team in the league....yet they are our starting center and right guard.

Rewarding a player with 60 million bucks for throwing a ton of six yard passes to Welker and RBs doesn't sound like a tied-at-the-hip situation. It sounds like a glued-at-the-hip situation. Soldered even.

obviously rhetoric is not one of your strong points.

what we were asking for was...change. we got it. now does that preclude questioning? no. but the amount of bitching and back and forth (trade gonzo! I miss gonzo! trade JA! I miss JA. draft! free agents! character! why can't eric hick go to the lockeroom! bryalon edwards?) going on is pretty comical.

we have to be patient, and hope SP has this under control soon. quite frankly the team was a tire fire when he arrived... it is gonna take awhile. this team is supposed to be built from the bottom up... lets see what they can do with a some time... again, the losing is painful - i understand.

Two years down the road Cassel's contract won't seem so binding. Seems like alot now but the way salaries and guaranteed money are escalating in the NFL I don't think it is.

PhilFree:arrow:

it the nfl... nothing is permanent. two years - if he is terrible - it is not so binding...
