I'm a huge Josh Rosen fan and I would love to acquire him. I don't want to part with too many picks so I'm thinking we should use players in the trade. Example: The Eagles traded Byron Maxwell and Kiko Alonso to move up from the 13th pick to the 8th pick in the 2016 draft.
My trade proposal: Dak, Demarcus Lawrence(franchise tag), and the 19th overall pick for the 1st overall pick and Emmanuel Ogbah. IMO Dak's ceiling is to become a Alex Smith caliber QB which is good but not good enough. John Dorsey (current Browns GM) actually traded two 2nd round picks(including the 34th overall pick) for Alex Smith. D Law right now is at his peak value. His injury history is concerning to me. I am just not comfortable signing him to a long term deal with a ton of guaranteed money. Also the franchise tag carries a 17 million dollar cap hit so that is also a major burden even though it is for one year. Losing the 19th pick will be tough but it is worth it for Rosen. We made a huge mistake not trading up for Wentz when we had the 4th overall pick. This trade allows us to land a blue chip franchise QB on a cheap 5 year rookie contract. IMO Rosen is basically Jared Goff(physical attributes and athleticism) with Aaron Rodgers level arm talent. He has excellent mechanics and is coming from a pro style offense. This trade also prevents the Giants from getting Rosen so they will be stuck with Sam Darnold who has high bust potential. Ogbah would be a cheap replacement for D Law. He has been kind of a disappointment but he still has potential.
John Dorsey reportedly doesn't want Rosen and Rosen has already made it clear that he doesn't want to go to the Browns. If Dorsey isn't high on Darnold, Mayfield, and Allen this trade proposal could be very attractive for the Browns.
