Anything that didn’t include at minimum two 1st rounders is a joke. Berry just had a relapse and reverted back to his Watson trade days. Either give up the farm for a trash heap, or trade your prized thoroughbred for “potential.”

I will say trading Garrett was probably the right move. He is at his all time peak value, but what we got in return does not equal imo. Regardless, the Browns are going nowhere without a competent QB. Shedump and Twatson?!? Lolz…

And here's why this team thinks they're playing 4D chess and they're playing 1/2D Tiddlywinks. You want to move him, then move him. You don't want to say it publicly, fine, then go behind the scenes and work the phones. But they said he was "untouchable" and according to reports apparently everyone believed them but the Rams, who just kept dogging them about it. THERE WAS NO BIDDING WAR. THERE WERE NO OTHER OFFERS BECAUSE THEY SAID THEY DIDN'T WANT ANY. They could have gotten a better deal, even from the Rams, if they had entertained all of the other teams, because at least one other contender would have been a suitor, and probably multiple. But nope. Let's do nothing to drive the price up, or even to let anyone else know there was a fucking price at all. Let's just take the first and only deal we can get, and set the team up for, what 2030? It's like the radio people said "more draft picks. yyyyaaaayyyyyyyy". And not even good ones at that.

Myles Garrett trade grades: Rams earn 'A' for landing two-time Defensive Player of the Year from Browns

Cleveland didn't fare as well, but it wasn't all bad
www.cbssports.com www.cbssports.com

Rams: A​

Let's not overthink this: How often does one of the greatest defenders in NFL history become available? Aaron Donald never switched teams. Lawrence Taylor never switched teams. J.J. Watt did, but he had sustained several major injuries, was about to turn 32 and was coming off a five-sack season when the Texans cut bait.
Those are the only players with more Defensive Player of the Year awards than Garrett.

Browns: B-​

Here are the quarterbacks who started at least one game during Garrett's time in Cleveland:
  • Baker Mayfield
  • Deshaun Watson
  • DeShone Kizer
  • Jacoby Brissett
  • Joe Flacco
  • Jameis Winston
  • Shedeur Sanders
  • Dillon Gabriel
  • Dorian Thompson-Robinson
  • Tyrod Taylor
  • Case Keenum
  • P.J. Walker
  • Kevin Hogan
  • Nick Mullens
  • Jeff Driskel
  • Bailey Zappe
It is an absolute travesty that the Browns could not pair an all-time great defender with a competent offense. In Garrett's nine seasons in Cleveland, the offense finished 31st or 32nd in scoring three times, more often than it finished in the top half of the league (twice).

That is all in the past now, though, and the Browns' haul for Garrett is ... OK. Remember, the Ravens were going to send the Raiders two first-round picks (including No. 14 overall) for Maxx Crosby, who has dealt with more injuries and isn't as good as Garrett. This deal lands Cleveland only one first-round pick, and it will likely come at the bottom of the round.

Draft Picks, Draft Picks, Draft Picks. This team is like the story (Shel Silverstein I think) of the guy who got 3 wishes and just kept on wishing and wishing and wishing for more wishes until he died.

And only one is a 1st in next years draft which will likely be at the end of the draft. Yea he’s 30 but he’s still awesome, I would have expected at least two 1st rounders. Clowns being clowns again oh well.

Why anyone would want an Ohio State guy to go to this fucking embarrassment of a franchise is mind-boggling.

Fuckin clowns, as usual.

I'm not even saying trading him was the wrong move - he makes a ton of money and is over 30 now. But they didn't get nearly enough back for him.

They got a decent DE, probably the last pick in round 1 next year, and a couple of day 2 picks down the road. For the best defensive player in the game who probably still has a couple good/great years left. That's fucking embarrassing. :slappy:At least traffic cops around Cleveland will get a break.

Now watch them trade Denzel Ward for a White Castle coupon.

Nah, this is Andrew 4D Berry man. They’ll get at least a White Castle coupon, a case of Strohs and a toilet seat lid for him. Maybe a conditional tuna sandwich with protected mayo in 2029

I would have traded him a couple years ago. But yeah - should have gotten more.

If your have a history of effectively drafting players then more picks are draft capital.

When you are the Browns, more picks are just disaster accelerant

It's like giving a small child not just a shiny revolver to play with but handing him a speed loader as well.

It’s like spraying your nuts with lighter fluid and handing an arsonist a box of matches…wait, that’s being a Browns fan in general
