    5th Round
    Cleveland from Tampa Bay - TE Kellen Winslow (Browns also got #2 pick in '09 Draft)
    Cleveland from Jets - WR Braylon Edwards
    St. Louis from New Orleans thru Philadelphia ('09 draft trade/LB Will Witherspoon)
    Oakland from Dallas thru Denver and New England - DE Derrick Burgess/DT LeKevin Smith
    Philadelphia from Cleveland - CB Sheldon Brown
    Kansas City from Carolina - DT Tank Tyler
    Kansas City from Miami - QB Tyler Thigpen
    NY Jets from Philadelphia - part of trade for CB Lito Sheppard
    Cleveland from Denver thru Detroit - DT Corey Williams
    Tampa Bay from New England - TE Alex Smith
    Baltimore from Arizona - completes deal for Anquan Boldin
    Seattle from Detroit - OG Rob Sims

    Now it looks like they got it back from Philly

    O Tannenbaum, o Tannenbaum...

    How fitting that Tannenbaum is German for Christmas tree because today feels a lot like Christmas.

    I will play "A moment like this by Kelly Clarkson" when the Jets win the Super Bowl. The song fits the Jets in every single way, this Santonio trade is beautiful, right now life is beautiful

    this is great. now i want to see those extended contracts signed by Dbrick, Revis and Mangold.

    Sanchize better improve his accuracy or this trade is moot. If it's true that he's an FA after 2010, seems that either Holmes or Edwards won't be on the team next year.

    Low risk as far as what we gave up but we are adding alot of bad guys in the locker room. I hope this doesn't come back to bite us. Much like Cromartie talent wise this is a no brainer but winning is about more than just talent.

    Yeah, it's confirmed. 2010 5th round pick for Holmes.

    I was very high on Holmes this year for fantasy football. He didn't live up to my expectations, however, Holmes will have a breakout season very soon.

    I wouldn't expect much this season production wise, but next season (hopefully no lockout) he should be among league leaders in catches.

    On an off topic jest, we have completely shaken up the draft boards of the pats, phins, and bills.

    instead of drafting d-line and lb's to stop our #1 rushing attack, they are all scrambling to draft the next 3 revis's to try and stop our passing attack!!!!!

    good luck with that!!!!!

    This acquisition is a steal!!!! Character issues??? The guy allegedly threw a glass at a woman in a night club. I guarantee you most of us have done worst. This guy was a superbowl hero. There are a lot of hypcrites in this world. Outstanding move, hopefully our team stays healthy. The playoffs are a lock, now we need to push further toward a championship.

    Was it a glass or the drink that was in the glass?

    Is that at about the time when your girlfriend whips out the strap-on and sodomizes you?

    The guy has more isseus than just that, he's a complete jerk. He's our jerk now and we'll root for him but let's not act like he is this great guy that had one isolated incident.

    I read on another board that PFT thinks Leon is involved in this deal.

    This is true, a domestic dispute and marijuana charges a year or so ago. So all is not roses.

    Wow now isn't this something to wake up to! Did we just get a former super bowl mvp for a 5th round pick? God damn, all Sanchez has to do now on offense is not screw up.

    i love this from a talent perspective but idk how well this is gonna end up working out. we now have 3 starting caliber guys for sanchez to throw to on the outside which is great but his whole nightclub situation rubs me the wrong way. if he can keep himself out of trouble this move is money in the bank.

    From PFT:

    Leon Washington can be part of trade package only after signing his tender
    Posted by Mike Florio on April 12, 2010 12:50 AM ET
    There are rumors flying in the wake of the trade that sent receiver Santonio Holmes from the Steelers to the Jets that the compensation package includes both a fifth-round draft pick and running back Leon Washington.

    Though we're not yet prepared to declare with 100 percent certainty that this rumor is off the mark, it's highly unlikely that Washington would be part of the deal. In order to be traded, Washington must first sign his restricted free agency tender offer. Given the apparent speed with which this deal transpired, it's unlikely that Washington inked the deal before the Steelers and the Jets worked out their trade.

    That said, it's possible that the Jets and Steelers have a wink-nod baseball-style "future considerations" arrangement, whereby Washington will be shipped to Pittsburgh at a later date.

    Possible, but not likely.
