Here's some info on the rookie they are replacing Jackson with - Adimchinobe Echemandu. Say that fast three times!

I also found stats for his senior year at Cal:

Suggs was hurt when they offered the draft pick and the Browns weren't in a position to trade him at that time. I'm not sure why they didn't try to get something for him today though...

I look for him to go to Carolina... They're in desperate need.

He's not necessarily "replacing" Jackson since Jackson wasn't even activated for half the games this year anyway.

Butch Davis is a complete moron. He could have gotten a draft pick off GB for Couch but he played hardball wanting a higher pick. Every goober armchair QB (myself included) knew they would cut Couch... they locked him out of the facility for crying out loud. Result, GB gets Couch, Cleveland gets nothing.

Miami offers a pick for JJ, Davis plays hardball wanting a better pick. Result, Jackson is available to Miami or anyone for peanuts, Cleveland gets nothing.

Jackson may add quality depth somewhere but I doubt he will be fantasy worthy.

Remember when Double J proclaimed himself The Edge Part 2......

Jackson is garbage -- not quite as much as Michael Bennett -- but very minimal value nonetheless.

You're partially right... .Butch Davis IS a moron. He's on a complete power trip.

But like I said in my previous post... When the Browns had the opportunity to trade Jackson for a draft pick, Suggs got hurt and they ended up keeping him until Suggs was healthy. Suggs got a stinger that was supposed to keep him out for a week, but he ended up being out for 3.

Now, why the Browns didn't attempt to trade him today??? I have not freakin' idea. Insanity from all the losses maybe.

Could have something to do with the trade deadline being a month ago. ;-D
