there are rumblings about Micah not being happy in Dallas. wonder if they would trade Garrett for Micah straight up.

No, but I want BOTH.

No, but I want BOTH.

that wouldn’t even be fair. as long as Dak stayed healthy- with both those guys coming off the edge not sure even Jerry could screw that team up. that’s how you get to an NFC chip. get Myles Garrett to pair with Micah and get lucky in the draft and snag Will Johnson at CB if he falls just outside the top 10- Dallas would be cooking with grease.

It's a lovely dream of course.  But Jerry usually ensures that Dallas fans can't have nice things.

not once you guys pay the great Sam Darnold a truck load. do it, hes worth it.

even Sam's agent knows he's not worth much after his last 2 games
of course if Sam could get Cousins' agent..........

Jerry would pay for both, but as long as Dak is QB, you're not gonna have nice things

Myles is going nowhere.  Trading Myles, even after the June 1st date will absolutely destroy the Browns Salary cap. They would be force to cut most of their high paid players who no longer have guarantees in their contracts and gut the team to make it under the cap.

Bitonio the OL already said he's probably retiring if they trade Garrett, and Denzel Ward has said he's going to have to reevaluate his future with the team if they move on from Garrett. 

If Garrett really wants out, couldn't he restructure his contract with the Browns if they agree to trade him? 

[Mdot21]

who is better by the way? Micah or Garrett? I think Garrett is probably the better all-around player because he's a much better edge setter/run defender- but not sure there is a better pure explosive pass rusher in the entire game than Micah. that guy he's freaky athletic for his size- like faster than a lot of WR's and RB's.

No because most his pay is bonus money that has already been paid out and is now being prorated across the life of his contract.  The second they trade him all the money that is being prorated becomes dead money to the Browns in the current year.  You can't trade money you already paid out. I think they is like 66m of dead money is they trade him.  It is why they can't cut Watson, there is 144m in dead money.  They browns have been doing a good job of kicking the can down the road with the cap, but at some point you are going to pay the piper particularly when you totally miss on a large contract.

But do you sometimes get what you need

Brad Holmes in his press conference yesterday basically said elite pass rushers are way too pricey for their value.  So I'd be shocked if either Garrett or Parsons is on Detroit next year.  And if that's the price, I assume the Jets will land them
