"The Cleveland Browns have traded two-time NFL Defensive Player of the Year Myles Garrett to the Los Angeles Rams for two-time Pro Bowl pass rusher Jared Verse and multiple draft picks, the teams announced Monday.
The Browns received a first-round draft pick in 2027, a second-round pick in 2028 and a third-rounder in 2029 "
Browns get a kings ransom and they offload an elite guy who is too expensive for their franchise but still has some tread on the tires. It's probably going to turn out to be a win/win, or it would if Cleveland's GM's knew what they were doing in a draft room.
Where they completely make all the wrong moves, give away the house, pay for it for year, force themselves to rebuild again and continue their decades of sucking ass.

Great. Because the NFC West wasn't good enough already.

I know. It is going to be a dog fight in that division. Then again it always is.

This looks like a win for both teams. Like the Stafford trade.

He was one of the few players that made my team worth watching. *sad Browns fan noises

I totally get that we don’t pick our teams. With that said, Browns and Jets fans do amaze me.

This feels like a vintage New England trade.

No man, it is a vintage Browns trade.
Where they completely make all the wrong moves, give away the house, pay for it for year, force themselves to rebuild again and continue their decades of sucking ass.

Pretty insane. Garret's gf's gonna be happy now they're both in LA.

LA is a amazing, and the size of that media market offers so many post NFL opportunities.
I am pretty sure Garrett owns at least one of the Cleveland sports teams so it will be interesting if he hangs on to them.

Thought we’d keep him for another season but this was inevitable. The rams are going to be ridiculous now though.
