STORY UPDATED 11:20AM - Bernie's Insiders has information from league sources about the fate of Andre Davis, and we are reporting on it exclusively at this hour. Media relaying this information need to credit BerniesInsiders.com.

UPDATE 11:20 AM - News travels fast. We had an exclusive for 90 minutes, LOL! The Associated Press has now come out with a story and there's another piece slapped up by ESPN. Here's the link to Lenny P reporting the news as well as the Associated Press. Just remember: if the story is true, we had it first. If the story is false, it's all the fault of those corporate weasels in Bristol and their irresponsible reporting. Long live Fox Sports! Man, I love this business. - Barry
UPDATE 11:10 AM - Our sources tell Lane that the Browns have received a conditional second-day draft pick, although word is that the Browns were also interest in a defensive lineman or defensive back, as we had suggested during our first report.
UPDATE 10:50 AM - Lane Adkins reports that independent sources have confirmed that a deal has been completed, although Davis' destination has not been confirmed by these sources. Also, word has reached us that a radio station, WEEI, is also reporting this information. At this moment, we don't know if they got it from us whether it is an independent verification.
FIRST REPORT, 9:45AM: League sources have told Bernie's Insiders that the Browns have completed a trade with the New England Patriots for wide receiver Andre Davis. While we have the story confirmed with multiple sources, fans should not consider the deal complete until we have official confirmation from the team.
According to our sources, the Browns negotiated over the weekend with both the Seattle Seahawks and the Patriots, before finally dealing the oft-injured receiver to New England.
We do not have word regarding what the Browns have received in exchange, although second-day draft choices are believed to be the most likely result.
Another possibility is that the Browns are interested in specific players that Romeo Crennel likes, with the team's needs being the most strong in the defensive secondary and on the defensive line. The Patriots themselves are struggling with a loss of players at the linebacker position.
Rumors in March had the Browns interested as well in QB Rohan Davey, who is a likely candidate to be cut by the Patriots prior to the start of the season. With the disappointing performance by QB Josh Harris and an injury to QB Doug Johnson, involving Davey in this deal is a possibility.
We will provide further details as they become available to the Bernie's Insiders team.

Great trade for the Pats. Davis has the potential to be a great reciever with a real qb throwing to him and BB will get it out of him.
I think this one is going to sting for Cleveland in a few years.

All right, all right, all right.
i dont agree, he didnt have a good role here, hes better off in new england and i wish him luck. at best he wouldve been a 3, 4 string reciever here. maybe this means we'll start seeing more of cribbs.

All right, all right, all right.
daylon mc. is out and when/if he comes back that should help, but it wont solve everything, remember, detroit had roy williams and charles rogers, both of them are physically amazing.
back to the topic, im happy to see andre go to the patriots, he has a great chance to get a ring, and anyone could emerge and be a playmaker on coach bilichecks team.
however unfortunately, my two browns jerseys are andre davis and kellen winslow jr. :(

i understand the concern, but i bought my andre davis jersey at least 3 years ago. and winslows biggest dig was being too immature, so it wasnt like he screwed up out of no where.
im an f'ing soldier???

I banned myself from buying Browns jerseys years ago after I bought that Andre Rison jersey.
Really though, when was the last time a Browns fan could buy a jersey and be proud of it in two or three years?

Calmer than you are.
Now that I'm finished being pissed at getting late round picks for another of Butchies early round picks. I have to wonder how this is going to effect Bam Childress. Davis is a returner and an experienced receiver. Bad move all around, as far as I'm concerned.
