Cleveland Has Trade Deals in Place for Edwards and Quinn

The Cleveland Browns have made it clear that anybody on their roster could be had via trade for the right price, except maybe LT Joe Thomas and LB D'Qwell Jackson. Pro Bowl TE Kellen Winslow has already been traded out of town to Tampa Bay and it appears as if some of his teammates may be out of town as well.

Former Browns personnel chief Mike Lombardi writes that the Browns have in place first-round offers for both quarterback Brady Quinn and receiver Braylon Edwards.

It is likely that the Browns will wait until draft day to finalize the deals, depending on how the draft shakes out. Pulling the trigger on a trade if a player they covet slips into the range of their prospective new picks.

One player the Browns hope will slip to them at number 5 is Texas Tech wide receiver Michael Crabtree, whom, according to Lombardi, the Browns are in love with.
