Just another reason why using all those picks on Williams was an overracting desperation move. You got Boldin wanting out of Arizona and now Edwards wanting out of Cleveland and regardless of his butterfingers, both he and Boldin>>>>>Roy.


I cant wait till RW11 has a full offseason and training camp with Romo and starts tearing up the league.....just so you can stop with the agenda..

Boldin= injuries 14 games missed in 5 seasons

Edwards = dropped passes galore...

dont get me wrong i like both of them ...but i like RW11 just as much and hes ours

Are you guys kidding?? Braylon > Roy?? Braylon has the worst hands. I've watched Braylon's games almost every Sunday (I have him on my fantasy team) and he drops balls like no other.

Roy on the other hand, amazing hands. We've watched incredible catches from him in his short time here, despite not yet synching with Romo just yet.

Take your agenda excuse elsewhere. Roy has the potential to be a Top 20 receiver and that's it. Braylon has the potential to be a Top 5.


I dont have it in for Roy. I have it in for wasting all those picks for half a season without that training camp or a full season to get used to to the offense. It was a desperation move.

You guys are missing the biggest angle. What if TO made these statements? Is Werder or someone else from ESPN going to make a big deal about this? If not, why?
T.O. has history and is on a popular team that wins. Braylon doesnt and isnt.

“People in this town believe they are entitled to too much. They have been disrespectful to me and my family. I’ve gone out in public with my family and have had to deal with being called foul names. My parents have been called vulgar things at restaurants.”

C'mon Braylon...they're just being passionate fans that love their team.

This is perfectly acceptable behavior.:rolleyes:

top 20?..............you are delusional
through their first 4 seasons here are the numbers..

B. Edwards ---3522 yds----28 tds----56 games

RW11---------3652 yds----28 tds----54 games

Braylon has had 1 good season ..drops too many balls....neither had much for qbs in the past Braylon had a good one last season D. Anderson and thats where 16 his tds came from ...2008 back to 3 tds only 6tds in 06 and 3 in 05.....like i said i like the guy but hes done nothing that makes me believe he is any better than RW....

just because you dont agree with giving up the picks for RW doesnt mean it wasnt a good move.....we got a bonefied WR instead of taking BIG chance on drafting one.and paying him stupid $ for a possible bust....hes already NFL ready....and by trading for him now we dont have to get in that redicoulous free agency bidding war...with the likes of Washington and Oakland.....we still have plenty of picks next season.....and few spots that need filling.....

1. Who's delusional? Roy has never came close to getting into the endzone like Edwards did last year and dont sit here and say Edwards was the one benefiting from Anderson when it was clearly the other way around and some of the circus catches he made last year that should've been INTs or incompletions.

2. You can coach players to catch the ball better. You cant coach players to stop getting injured. Roy had one season where he didnt miss any time do to injury and Braylon had one season(his rookie year) where he did.

You come across completely condescending in the majority of your posts

im not saying Braylon benefited from DA...i was saying that both wrs have had crap for qbs and RW has done more with it ...AND playing opposit Calvin Johnson last season took away from his attempts in 07 after having his best season in 06.. i believe he was rising star before getting his attempts cut in half

ill give ya that Braylon has been more durable.....but being a WR who has played all his life when is he gonna take those ball catching lessons......i reckon about the same time T.O. does huh?

Even Owens has gotten better from his early days in SF. And Roy hasnt done more with it. His numbers year by year arent significantly better than Braylon's by any means.



And last I checked, Braylon Edwards had to share catches with one of the best receiving TEs in football in Kellen Winslow Jr who took his catches as well.

T.O. still drops alot of balls...too many....so its still not good enough...

take away Braylons 1 good season and hes had 3 VERY average seasons .....you take away RW best season and he still averages 7.5 tds a year for the other 3 years thats double braylons average tds for his other 3 years.....that is significantly better IMO

It's true. I'm a Michigan fan in Ohio, and my Browns fan buddies can't stand this guy.

The problem with Braylon is that he can make the acrobatic catch, but not the easy one. I blame this on all the QBs that he has had to work with during his football career: John Navarre (high and outside), a frosh Chad Henne (just throw the jump ball), Charlie Frye (horrid), and Derek Anderson (Navarre part II). No wonder he is not accustomed to a crisp pass from Brady Quinn.

Browns fans will get what they deserve. They are running their only playmakers off this team one by one. Sure hope the mighty Quinn can is a miracle worker.

Funny. Everyone now doesn't like the Roy trade yet all of these comments sound eerily familiar to the ones made a year ago when rumors about Roy wanting to be a Cowboy. I like Braylan but I don't like him for the Cowboys. HE drops more balls than any receiver in the league and its not even close. Guys complain about TO dropping footballs but he doesn't even compare to Braylan. And Braylan drops them when he has a guy beat for a touchdown. No thank you. I like Roy just fine. We already have a great receiver we for some reason can't get the ball to. Receiver is no longer a need.

LMAO@ anyone who would try and say Braylon is better than Roy and keep a straight face while doing it.

I like Braylon, don't get me wrong, but the dude has hands of stone. He drops way too many passes.

I can't even imagine the blow ups on these forums that would occur every Sunday after he dropped 2-4 critical passes in each game.

I watched some Cleveland games this year and he drops way too many passes.

That would probably be because Romo favors Witten.
