A crazy thought…

The Browns look like a complete dumpster fire.

What if Myles Garrett is on the block?
boy would that be fun. However i cant see the brownies trading away their 1st overall hall of fame pick.

It was mentioned earlier in this thread. Only reason I think they would move off him is create cap space to get rid of Watson.
the Browns are over the cap next year by ~$5m and $15mm in 2026

while not good, its manageable

it just means the Browns will spend the next two years having to gut the middle class portion of their roster in order to pay for Watson to stand on the sideline while watching a journeyman and/or drafted rookie play the position

you dont ditch your best players just because they have a big cap hit ------- you ditch the vets making big $ who are good, but aren't at the top of their position anymore and guys making $5mm a year and replace them with minimum wage players

Agreed, but if they traded their best players away to create cap space to rid themselves of an albatross contract they would be tearing it down to rebuild.

But the Browns would need multiple 1st rounders in order to Secure all options for the New franchise QB.

I would easily send 2x 1st for the best player in the league

I'm not giving up two first rounders for him or any other defender in the league. That's just too rich for my blood.
