Gilchrist The Browns Savior??

Ok we all know the Patriots were trying to ship 4th ovr. QB Gilbert Gilchrist off to fill some big holes in the team. Well a deal went down early Tuesday mornning as the Cleveland Browns reached out to the GM of New England and worked out a deal. The Browns send Larry Ogunjobi (NT, 25) and Jabrill Peppers (SS, 23) to NE and the Patriots send Gilchrist (QB, 21) to Cleveland. Ok lets break down this trade to find the winner and loser. 1st off many fans of the New England Patriots were (and are) very confused why the team would send 2 1st round picks and 1 2nd to the NYG (giving them pick #4) to draft a QB (Gilchrist) then talk about and activly look to trade the rookie QB when they never gave the said QB a chance to play a full season as a Patriot, clearly the Giants won that trade now due to this trade. The trade it self is not bad, the Patriots last week traded for Steelers 2nd string QB Mason Rudolph and the Patriots have many holes to fill on D so the trade on the NE side is somewhat fair, but on the Cleveland side the tarde looks like a steal and here is why. The Browns look studly on the D side of things and the Browns have struggled on the Offensive side of things this trade gives them the boost they need to get things started, by looking at the trade and the teams I'd have to say the Browns are the winners of this trade but only the season will tell if maybe the Patriots had seen something in Gilchrist that they didn't like or a possible problem but agian only time will tell and show the true Winner and Loser.
