Braylon Edwards New York, Oct 7 (THAINDIAN NEWS) The New York Jets agreed to acquire Braylon Edwards from the Cleveland Browns, in a novel barter system in which Cleveland Browns will also get a Jet player. This way, the New York Jets add a Pro Bowl receiver to the team’s offense.

New York will send special-teams player Jason Trusnik, wide receiver Chansi Stuckey and undisclosed draft picks to Cleveland, the Jets announced.

According to statistical reports, Edwards had just 10 catches for 139 yards and no touchdowns in four games for the winless Browns this season. He also made 238 receptions for 3,697 yards and 28 scores in five seasons with Cleveland. He made the Pro Bowl after the 2007 season when he caught 80 passes for 1,289 yards and 16 scores.

Research analysts say, that acquiring Jets is quite risky for the New York Jets, but in recent times it does make sense.
