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.
