Rumor: It looks as if B. Edwards could be a Giant tomorrow...

[Tom [Giants fan]]

The only sources I have are a couple of websites of people talking about hearing it on a radio station in Philly. But a lot of people have heard it. Take it for what it is worth but it states that there is a press conference tomorrow.

The Giants apparently gave up a first and fifth round pick.

They better hope that he gets over his apparently chronic case of the dropsies.

I guess if this doesn't work out it will be the #2 bust in trade history.

Not much of a price difference from Roy. 5th vs. 3rd. I guess the difference is the premium you pay to get the guy on your team during the season. Draft picks have their highest value this time of year. If traded for now (I know he would have been a FA) I assume it wouldn't have taken a 1st and a 3rd.

why do most Rumors start from Philly radio stations??? who do these Philly radio guys know to always be getting this info?

 

[SLATEmosphere]

So what? Anthony Henry shut down Bray last season..enough said..lol

He's trash and overrated.

 

[Skinsmaniac]

If true, I think that's fair for both sides. Braylon Edwards is a great athlete and has a nose for the end zone, but he can suffer from the dropsies. I would expect him to match Burress's production in NY.

Because they talk to nors and he's obv wired east cost football.

Guess this would be a fair trade. I'm not a huge Edwards fan myself as I think he's only had one season worthy of his draft placement, but this would be a solid addition to the Gints.

 

[TellerMorrow34]

Interesting. I think it's a bit much for Braylon, who I really like, but he drops way to many passes for that.

I don't see how...

their sports teams suck arse and have nothing better to talk about but other teams that are good?

Don't really want the Giants replacing Burress so easily. Who do we prefer on this board: Roy Williams or Braylon Edwards?

of those two, Roy easily. Braylon drops way to many for my likings and no i didn't like owens

typically, cowboys fans say edwards sucks but if he were coming here jerry would be a genius and they would be making the new triplets threads.

Edwards is a good player, IN ny he will be surrounded by excellent coaches and a head coach who will demand he get better. I would be willing to bet coughlin and his bunch get his drops reduced drastically, especially since he is playing with a much better qb.

Edwards in ny makes me very nervous. I already see them as the best team in the conference and adding edwards to the lineup makes them even better.

 

[AmishCowboy]

I think it's a good trade for the Giants.

 

[TheCount]

Good trade for the Giants if they get it, and good value. They'll have to rework his contract right away though.

 

[Vintage]

Gotta hand it to the Giants.

Good offseason for them.

It seems that a big sticking point in this trade probably not happening is that the Browns want Mathias Kiwanuka as part of the package. The Giants are not willing to part with him. Reports now have it that Boldin may be more likely.

I would actually rather have Edwards but if it means giving up Kiwi, nevermind.
