Braylon Edwards proving he's a fraud; talking smack about fans

If there were any lingering doubts that Braylon Edwards might have given something less than 100 percent during his final season (or two) in Cleveland, his Monday night performance with his new team removed all doubt.

Traded to the Jets earlier in the week, Edwards caught five passes for 64 yards, including a touchdown (as well as another reception down to the Dolphins' 1-yard line). And the guy known for hands of stone in recent years caught everything thrown in his direction. Weird.

Long-suffering Browns fans were unimpressed with Edwards' sudden resurgence and they let the former third-overall pick know about it via Twitter. Which prompted this response from Braylon.



Pretty sure Braylon could have left off "disgruntled" when talking about Browns fans. We'll take that as given. And Josh Cribbs, who no doubt appreciates the Edwards shout-out, offered this via his Twitter feed: "Good luck to Braylon on the rest of his career... Go browns."

As for what prompted Braylon to send the tweet, SportsbyBrooks has a sampling. Yeah, Browns fans can kindly be described as disgruntled.

Didn't he actually get in "tweet fights" with Browns fans that were name calling him?

Talk about a classy guy...but...then again, you should read Orton's twitter.

Perhaps you should read Josh Cribbs twitter. See what a professional writes. Edwards sure is happy to go off and talk trash to Browns fans now that he's in New York.

In case you couldn't tell, I was being sarcastic.

I think its stupid. If you don't want public people commenting on your tweets, there's a feature to turn it off.

He did it for the attention, something that no doubt comes as no shock to Browns fans.

Couldn't tell.

Not in the greatest mood at the moment. So, even though I like Sarcasm. I'm quite dull to it at the moment.

I don't know, it looked like the Browns are a fraud after watching Edwards playing in a good team. And by watching what they are doing to Cribbs, it is easy to see why the ship keeps sinking.

[BroncoBJ4MVP!!!]

He's probably just happy to be playing for a real NFL Team now.

I wouldn't blame him. Let him vent.

It looks like Braylon is happy he is out of Cleveland. He sure doesn't have a lot of class does he... He shouldn't be taken shots at Browns since he is a Jet know.

You tell me. What are the Browns doing to Cribbs?

Cribbs signed a contract and it is up to him to honor it.

Cribbs has shown he cannot play WR. Cribbs has shown he cannot play safety (Mangini tried him out at safety). Cribbs has shown he can return kicks and make special teams tackles. That is all he has proven.

You guys gave him up for a song. That has to sting. Dont blame Braylon. It is the FO, and coaching staff.

This happens all the time when a player switches teams, ex. Allen to the vikes, Cutler to the bears, now Edwards to the browns. It is just Edwards trying to kiss his new fan bases ass so they will put up with his drops for awhile before they get sick of him and becomes a big cry baby again.

I hate to see this happen to the Browns they have been my 2nd team for many years and everything with them seems like it has crashed and burned lately.

Just to be fair and honest, he's caught everything thrown at him thus far.

Like that big touchdown catch at the end of the game?

You know, the one that went through his hands.

You really think that is Ortons real Twitter? Wow. He talks about hooking up with random chicks even though he is married. I would bet a lot of money that it isnt his real twitter.

Braylon took a lot of crap there, I am not saying what he did was right, but the Browns fans should move on. That was a messy relationship between a shaky fanbase and a YOUNG (KEy word) receiver. It's just better than he split, I mean, Cribbs wants to leave too....there is something wrong

Winslow - Gone

Edwards - Gone

Cribbs - On the way

Derek Anderson/Quinn - On the way

Browns season - Gone
