Braylon Edwards Injury recovery status? (1 Viewer)
- Thread starter joepro
- Start date
I would take a shot with him. He was really coming on before his injury last year and he has a a pretty good preseason. With what is probably available at that point, he wouldn't hurt.

For a guy coming off a torn ACL, he has looked remarkable. He WILL start as wr1.
My personal take on him was that he wouldn't be back until November & I wouldn't have him on my roster if you paid me. I'm dumbfounded! On the otherhand, there's a reason Charlie Frye's ADP ranks with the lower QBs.

I haven't seen him in the preseason, so I can't make a judgement. I have a feeling that's why the OP started this thread.Sure, he's on the field, but is he playing full speed? Is he making cuts? Is he looking timid? Has he taken a hit?Considering that he was not supposed to be back until November, wouldn't you consider that he has looked pretty solid in the preseason?I don't follow Big Score around, but he has a good point.

on his one catch, he pulled in the ball at the 5 and carried two defenders to the 2. so, he is not timid and has taken a hit.I think he's going to be excellent sooner than later and is a value pick in all leagues, all formats.I haven't seen him in the preseason, so I can't make a judgement.

FROM FOX SPORTS:
Edwards' repaired knee passes test in win
ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) - The original plan was to limit Browns receiver Braylon Edwards to six plays so he could test his surgically repaired right knee for the first time this preseason.
Then he made his first catch and took his first hit without flinching. By the second quarter, Edwards had taken off his protective brace and demanded more in Cleveland's 20-17 win over the Buffalo Bills on Saturday night.
Coach Romeo Crennel wasn't about to stop Edwards.
"That's the reason we wanted to get him in there and give him a chance to get hit," Crennel said. "I think he took the hit well."
The Browns (2-1) won the game when Jeff Chandler hit a 35-yard field goal as time ran out. But the significant highlight came earlier when Edwards took the field a mere eight months since having reconstructive surgery.
"Going into this game, it wasn't a matter of, 'All right, what can you do?' with the knee the way it is," said Edwards, who was in for 16 plays. "Going into this game, it was, 'What are you used to doing?"'
Edwards, a 2005 first-round pick, picked up where he left off when he was emerging as a playmaker before he got hurt in December.
Saturday, Edwards entered the game as a backup and made his lone catch on his second play from scrimmage: a 9-yard reception on third down when Charlie Frye found him open over the middle.
Edwards turned up field and dragged two defenders before Jabari Greer tackled him at the Bills 2. The Browns scored on the next play when Frye threw a touchdown pass to Steve Heiden.
"As soon as I caught that first pass, and almost ended up in the end zone, it was right back to where I left off," Edwards said.

No negativity, just interested in accuracy.For example;
Greg Jennings of Green Bay has 11 receptions for 328 yards.
Now to me, THAT would qualify as a good pre season.
Now if you're defining Braylon Edwards as having had a good pre season because he was able to play in a game ahead of schedule, then yeah, he's had a good pre season I guess.

There is a lot more to evaluating players in preseason than just numbers. All of the reports by anyone covering the Browns have been very positive about the development of Edwards this season.

Gentlemen - This discussion has gone from Braylon Edwards to what you think a successful preseason is. That should be an entirely different thread with all due respect.
What I would really like to know is Edwards stats after next weeks game vs Mike McKenzie and the Saints.
I expect to see both on Sportscenter in two very different lights.

I brought up Jennings as an example of a WR having a good pre season.By your defintion of pre season being a success - "was dominant in practices took a starting job and then held it." & "all about the camps and what players come out on top." I'm about 99.9% certain Jennings qualifies on all accounts.
If Jennings is not a good example, please enlighten me as to what I've missed.

No Jennings is a pretty decent example I thought you were just going off of his stats though.

Verdict still out on Edwards starting
Tuesday, September 05, 2006
Mary Kay Cabot
Plain Dealer Reporter
Coach Romeo Crennel said he expects receiver Braylon Edwards to play "quite a bit" in Sunday's opener against the New Orleans Saints at Cleveland Browns Stadium, eight months after Edwards' surgery to repair a torn ACL.
However, Crennel didn't promise that Edwards will start.
"I've been talking to the players about having a role on the team," Crennel said. "The role changes from day to day and, in some cases, week to week. One week, I may be the star, but the next week the game plan might not allow me to be the star. Sometimes we get caught up in who's going to start. The thing that's important is how well they play. Braylon is going to play, no question about it. I think he's going to make plays in the game to help us win."
Crennel declined to say who would start opposite Edwards, if he starts. Presumably, it would be Joe Jurevicius, with Dennis Northcutt joining them on third down. If Edwards doesn't start, Jurevicius and Northcutt will.
"It depends on the role that we want [Edwards] to play," Crennel said. "I'm not ready to say today how we're going to do it because that will give some information away to our opponents."

Back on track. The original question by the thread title was;"Braylon Edwards Injury recovery status?, Is he currently Cleveland's #1 WR?"
I think the answer is NO, he is not currently Clevelands #1 WR. However, by week 4, I do expect him to be Clevelands #1 WR.
Is he worth drafting in the 9th round of a 16 team league?
I would say so, considering the other WR's likely available there.
Definitely worth drafting in the 9th, if you're in a keep 2 or 3 players type league.

That's great if you're right, but I figure even if his knee is OK (which I think it is), I see Crennel easing him back into a fulltime starting role, considering how much practice time he's missed this off season.Cleveland has Jurevicius, Northcutt & Winslow to hold the fort down for the first few games. Once Edwards is fully comfortable with the O and him & Frye are in complete sync, he'll be the fulltime starter for sure.

He's been practicing for more than a month now. From what I saw in the 3rd preseason game his knee is fine, took a big hit and drove toward the goal line with 2 dbs dragin behind him, 2 plays later gets his repaired knee clipped out from under him and gets up like nothing happened. Romeo was saying before that game that he might get in on 6-8 plays. 16 plays later they made him come out of the game. The guy is ready to go and highly motivated. Romeo won't be able to keep him off the field.That's great if you're right, but I figure even if his knee is OK (which I think it is), I see Crennel easing him back into a fulltime starting role, considering how much practice time he's missed this off season.Cleveland has Jurevicius, Northcutt & Winslow to hold the fort down for the first few games.

I hear ya, I'm just trying to understand the reasoning behind it. Romeo likes to ease rookies into starting roles but Edwards was starting last season before he got hurt. He knows the offense, has good timing with Frye (been on the field 4 weeks now) and his knee appears healthy.Any reason you feel Romeo will hold the best reciever on his team back for 4 weeks?

And if Cleveland has any chance of making the playoffs, starting 0-1 by losing to the Saints is a really, really bad way to get there.

2 reasons.I think Crennel wants to know, that not only is Edwards knee 100% physically, but that Edwards is 100% trusting of the knee, mentally.
I'm not sure that 4 weeks of practices (which I thought I read where Edwards was held out of one of the two a days) has Frye & Edwards completely dialed in. Missing all of the team Mini Camps, OTA's, some of TC and only getting into one preseason game for 16 plays tells me that there maybe a little jelling still to do between Frye & Edwards.
Like I said, I don't see Crennel benching Edwards for 4 games, he will play and be involved in the offense, I just don't see Crennel throwing the full starters role on him right away.
But that's just me and my opinion. I could very well be 100% wrong.

I think the damage Droughns does to NO, will be a far greater deciding factor, than what Edwards may or may not do in the game.

Based on this info I think it is wise to bench Edwards for this week.FYI, The proper English spelling of apologise is with an s, not a z.
LinkSame as color & harbor are not the correct English spelling.apologize? /??p?l??d?a?z/ Pronunciation Key - Show Spelled Pronunciation[uh-pol-uh-jahyz] Pronunciation Key - Show IPA Pronunciation
–verb (used without object), -gized, -giz?ing. 1. to offer an apology or excuse for some fault, insult, failure, or injury: He apologized for accusing her falsely.
2. to make a formal defense in speech or writing.
Also, especially British, apologise.

Proper English spelling is colour & harbour.
Americans have changed a lot of the spelling of English words.
If you go to any other English speaking country in the world and spell apologise with a z, they will know what you're spelling. They'll also know you're an American by your incorrect spelling of the word.
I laughed if no one else did...

This is a result of Randy Lerner buying that English Soccer team isn't it?FYI, The proper English spelling of apologise is with an s, not a z.I'm sorry that I know how to spell apologize and you don't.Are you the dark cloud on every post? All I ever see out of you is negativity.If you count getting into 1 pre season game and have 1 catch for 9 yards as good, then yeah, he's had a good pre season.But to me, that's not what I would consider to be a good pre season
For example;
Greg Jennings of Green Bay has 11 receptions for 328 yards.
Now to me, THAT would qualify as a good pre season.
Now if you're defining Braylon Edwards as having had a good pre season because he was able to play in a game ahead of schedule, then yeah, he's had a good pre season I guess.
But remember that's your definition.
I apologise that my views of players having good pre seasons, happens to be different from yours.
