Kamerion Wimbley
Brady Quinn wasn’t the only Cleveland Browns player to be traded on Sunday.
The team traded linebacker Kamerion Wimbley to the Oakland Raiders for undisclosed draft picks according to multiple sources.
Wimbley was selected in the first round of the 2006 NFL Draft and started his career on fire— recording 11 sacks for the Browns.
He was unable to duplicate that level of success over the next three years, averaging 5.5 sacks per season through last year.
Per Adam Caplan of Scout.com, the final year of Wimbley’s current six-year deal will be void. However, there is a $7.765 million buyback for 2011.
He will earn a base salary of $1.065 million in 2010.
