The Browns adjusted Garrett's contract (more tradeable) -- (See new thread)

[NotForLong]

Let's put it this way .....
If you told me I could trade Parsons and replace him with Clark, Quinnen Williams, and Myles Garret and still have my 2027 first-round pick...I'll take that trade off every day

True story

 

[NotForLong]

I would only do it give it up 2026 to first round picks.
He not just one player he is the best player defensively in the NFL. That matters. For example is like adding Mahone to a team versus Baker Mayfield. We will have to disagree on this one because I have no doubt in my mind add him and we become a super bowl contender as long as we get a legit middle linebacker.

As I mentioned in another post if you told me we could flip Parsons for QW, Clark a Miles Garrett is still have the first round pick in 2027 I'll take that everyday everyday.

Immediate contenders. In addition to this, add in the fact the D with Garrett would allow Dak to play to his strengths . . . with a lead, comfortable and stress free

If we get Garrett, his impact would make Dak the MVP of 2026 i guarantee it

Garrett makes too much sense. Add in the LB from Miami and it would be a wrap. CB would be the only weakness but the pass rush and harassment of the QB would elevate their game as well.

I am sure Overshown would be in the double digits in sack numbers.

What a pipe dream. Fingers crossed

As mention ed in another thread He's a type of player that will make everyone around him better. Not to mention the leadership he bring to the team and the locker room

“would make Dak the MVP”? You need to put down the pipe.

FYI, if you can trade a better of the two then you can trade the lesser of the two.

Someone here mentioned there is an NFL rule against it in this scenario

Garrett has a no trade clause. If Garrett wants to go to Dallas and only Dallas, then we are competing with no other team.

Personally I wouldn’t hesitate. He’s a HOFer and in a completely different league than Crosby or anyone on this team for sure. At that point you just push all the chips in the table and try to win the thing in two years

You can’t go all-in for one player when you’re not just one player away.

This team has too many holes, especially at linebacker and other positions, to justify that kind of move.

Even if a top player became available — and Garrett or the Browns haven’t hinted at anything — it’s better to wait, see if they’re actually on the market, and find out the cost before throwing out a blank check.

Everything might be for sale at the right price, but if they don’t really want to move him and the asking price is too high, it’s not the right fit.

Sure, he’s better than Parsons, but if the Cowboys wanted to make that kind of deal, they would’ve just paid Parsons. You’d be giving up more than you got for him and more than you can afford.

Yes, he’s 30 but in incredible shape, like Derrick Henry or Terrell Owens, and just had his best year — but it still can’t be at all costs when the roster isn’t there yet.

And while he’s one of the best in the league, just like Garrett, Crosby, Watt, and Parsons, none of these elite defensive players have deep playoff runs or rings to show for it.

Even great individuals can only do so much when the rest of the team has major gaps.

I mean isn't this true aren't we sitting here talking about players that are on teams that haven't done much and even on that side of the ball they haven't really affected it I realize the Browns have had a great defense here and there and they're looking for better offense but if you really look at it when you have bigger holes one player can affect and impact his position and sure it can help the defense overall but it will not fix the holes all they'll do is throw the ball quicker they'll throw it to the opposite side they'll run more there's a way to defeat great players we've seen it with Parsons here ourselves when you don't have the rest of it in place around or behind them..

 

[Hawkeye0202]

Garrett has a no trade clause. If Garrett wants to go to Dallas and only Dallas, then we are competing with no other team.

It also means he's in total control and the Browns would have no choice but to make a deal with the Cowboys.

No way they're going to try enforc ed the best defensive player in the NFL to play for them if he's not happy.

 

[blueblood70]

Exactly my thoughts

But that's wrong You have to stop having pictures of having a great player to get yourself pumped up to watch the Cowboys that's all great..

When you can go out and buy a jersey and cheer for you know get your spirits up but if it doesn't benefit the whole entire team if it truly doesn't move the entire team to another level especially on defense which we've already seen this with a bunch of other great pass rushers or a great player at one position cannot carry the entire group..

Be an improvement but the Cowboys are nowhere near that right now.. Reason Green Bay did what they did with Parsons is they felt like he was the answer to elevate them the last piece they were willing to pay more both in draft capital and money to make it happen and unfortunately for parts since he got hurt but fortunately for us well it made the trade feel better 'cause I didn't do anything that they couldn't have done before him and without him the year before..

Again that's the point Crosby Garrett Parsons TJ why all these great pass rushers cannot do it alone and many times even when they were playing great like Garrett last year it didn't even elevate the defense as much as it has in the past because there's too many holes for a good offense to exploit and just go away from and try to neutralize them in ways that we saw Parsons get neutralized here even with good stats it doesn't impact the team deep enough to make your old chips in we are not one player away we are not at that point..

 

[Proof]

Garrett is not going to play for the Cowboys. If you want to believe the Cowboys have the best offense in the league than believe it.

i don't care if he is or he isn't, that wasn't the point of discussion. and you can replace "the best" with "one of the best" but miss me with the condescension.

3 1st for a 31 yo? Not realistic

Max crosby is a lesser player, more injuries and just got 2. He’s younger but he is nowhere near as good as garret. Garrett’s contract now is essentially 30 million for the next 2 years before a big jump in year 3 that isn’t guaranteed. It’s an amazing contract

You’re getting a reigning dpoy still in his prime. The cost will be minimum 2 firsts AND a high value player or 3 firsts if the player can’t be thrown in.

be nice, king. The guy guarantees it.

Uh max Crosby trade fell through....this guy is not worth 3 1sts, no way no how 'the value of 3 rookie contracts is far far too much.

Have to put everything in prospective. Browns are no where near to being a contender and they don't have clue who their QB is going to be not to mention needs on OL, WR, etc.

They don't need our choices this year, they need them the next 3 years. The owner wants to ensure he gets Arch Manning next year although not sure that is what the Mannings want for him.

If, and big if, we can keep our choices this year but give up our 1st in 2027 and 1st in 2028, then I would like that trade and if got Styles at #12 somehow then that team has a real shot at a Super Bowl.

 

[gtb1943]

the only way this trade makes sense is if we were truly one big time rusher away from contending for a SB

IF you believe that DaK and the O can duplicate last years success, and are willing to go ALL IN then maybe
But NGM is not going all in so its not worth it

Hopefully, the Browns trade him to the Cowboys. He has the no trade clause that he would waive to go to the Cowboys and the Cowboys have the draft picks.
