Do you trade Garrett?
-
I would give Garrett away as long as they took Watson and his salary with him
-
I'm taking an educated guess Garrett will play out on more huge payday (which he's absolutely earned). I'm not smart enough to follow this void year stuff, but matter of fact speaking he has two years left on his current deal and is only slated to make $20 million AAV in 2025. I wouldn't blame him, at all, to push hard for one more deal after this offseason.
So then the question becomes, are the Browns the team to offer him that contract given the reality of this team over the life of this Watson contract? You can make an unfortunate but logical decision that the answer to that is no. If that answer is no, you start taking calls now and demand a kings ransom. Realistically the man still has 2 and half (including this season) peak years and could easily give a team like the Lions, Texans, or even the Falcons that "all-in" piece to win this year.
With that being said, if the plan is to re-up Garrett and have him as the cornerstone of this team for the next 4-5 years, I'm fine with that too. The man still has several more elite years, that I am sure.

I am advocating for a full on fire sale. Ideally, get two firsts for Garrett because the next time the Browns are good is going to be when he is past his prime. I'd trade him for as little as a first and third. See what offers you get for Ward and Njoku. The offense doesn't have any talent to build around. The stars are getting long in the tooth. Fire Depodesta and Berry. Maybe keep Stefanski - though he really needs to answer for why DTR was backup and not Winston (maybe trying to showcase DTR in garbage time for a possible trade?).

Think I agree with all this. I do think Berry built a good roster in a very competitive division but someone’s going to be fired for the Watson trade

After the guy who committed actual felonious assault on live tv and then tried to defend it by doing a half assed jussie smollet decided to lecture the fans on sportsmanship on behalf of a serial sex offender who is the worst quarterback in the league and called him a "model citizen"...
Yeah I'd trade him.
-
The only reason I would want to see Garrett traded is so he does not have to be another Joe Thomas who played out a stellar career for a shit organization that was so fucked they could not build a winner around him. Nothing has changed and won't until the baseball guy and owner are history at a minimum. Watson trade away of so many #1's plus more was just so fucked it will go down as the worst in NFL history permanently.

I'm out of likes.
HARD. TO. ARGUE.

I’m sorry but if a Garrett trade doesn’t knock my socks off he can retire as a Brown. A late first rounder and other stuff nope. If he wants to bolt after that and not build a retirement mansion in Moreland Hills than so be it.

What would you ask for? What would you take?

Thinking on the lines of Khalil Mack to the Bears five years ago. Two first rounders and at least two other picks 2nd or 3rd round picks preferably not to a Super Bowl perennial team whose pick will be at the end of the first round.
I would 100% take that trade. There's not a chance of anyone offering that.

I was thinking two first rounders.
If someone offered two first rounders and say two third rounders, I'd drive Myles to that team's headquarters myself. I don't want to trade him, but we have to be honest with ourselves, we are looking at 2016 and 2017 all over again. We have to bite the bullet on the cap hits for the next two years of Watson (instead of continuing to push it down the road) and we need to restock the team with young talent. This is the second oldest roster in the NFL. Getting two first rounders and two third rounders for Myles would be a great way to do that.
