    Interesting take on it.

    I don't like that he's airing this out in the public arena.  This should be done between him, his agent and the Browns.  

    Perhaps a trade with the Titans.  

    I am not a fan of either side ever negotiating through any type of media.  But this is the sports world + media we have lived in for a long time now (TO doing push ups in his drive way).  Like it or not, it's the norm.  It's a world where removing anything regarding the team from ones social media pages is seen/used in attempt for negotiation leverage.

  • This is a setup.

    There is some agreement between Myles and the Browns front office. The trade request is to soften Browns fans for when they deal Myles. The Browns are going to rebuild, again. They have to do this after the Watson disaster. It just sucks to lose the best player we have.

    Myles agent group is Klutch sports, Well it seems a top exec there is married to Tyler Hamblin who is the director of operations for the Browns,

  • My guess is, Garrett has put feelers out to the Browns, and only started talking to the media when they were a brick wall.

    The watson deal was a failure as soon as they did it.

    Some bought into the "chance" to go to the superbowl after all.

    But it wasn't to be. Some of us KNEW it.

    Anyways, Garrett has been outstanding, this FO, owner and hc are NOT.

    Trade him since he wants out, Garrett's given up on the Browns is a justified

    decision on his part.

    CLEVELAND, Ohio — Browns fans, what we have here is a war of words.

    At the Senior Bowl last week, Browns GM Andrew Berry said he wouldn’t trade Myles Garrett – not even for a pair of first-round picks.

    Berry also said this about his star defensive end at his postseason press conference: “My anticipation, expectation is that he’ll have a direct ticket from Cleveland to Canton at the end of his years and expect him to be here and retire a Brown, quite frankly.”

    Canton is a reference to the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

    Well, Garrett said this as part of his written request to be traded:

    “While I’ve loved calling this city my home, my desire to win and compete on the biggest stages won’t allow me to be complacent … The goal was never to go from Cleveland to Canton, it has always been to compete for and win a Super Bowl.

    “With that in mind, I have requested to be traded from the Cleveland Browns.”

    There you have it … a problem.

    Browns can keep Garrett

    Do the Browns have to trade Garrett? No.

    In fact, I’m hearing the Browns are standing behind what Berry has been saying for quite a while – they intend to keep Garrett.

    Can that change? Of course.

    But the Browns have the NFL’s premier defensive player, at least in their opinion. He’s 29 and in the prime of his career.

    I checked my sources again today. They want Garrett with the team long term, and they are working to make that happen.

    Seems to me it would be more satisfying helping a team get to a SB than being traded to a team already built to go... almost like a participation trophy.

    They could keep him for 5 more years if they wanted to.

    I've never seen a FO in Cleveland given more tenure for less.  You know, one that wouldn't even be capable of drafting a Myles Garrett, Joel Bitonio, Denzel Ward, Nick Chubb, David Njoku or finding an untapped vet like Wyatt Teller that has frequented Pro Bowls.  That guy (John Dorsey) got fired for the Office Depodesta spreadsheets; so he could go to the Detroit Lions and put them in position to frequent the playoffs. Meanwhile, the only Pro Bowl caliber guy Berry has drafted has been JOK whose career may already be over.

    All this stuff we continue to go through; and the Worst Owner in the NFL isn't even considering terminating either.  So now we have to count on the 2 of them to re-build a team they still can't find the right QB for in what has been perceived to be a weak QB draft. Look what they've settled on at LT for any/all of the victims trying to play QB here.

    But the Dumb Ass writing all of this to you is still here in spite of it all hoping the blind squirrels at the top of this franchise can find a magic nut or 2 or 3...

  • I can't say I blame him but requesting a trade and getting one are two different things. He's got two years oh his contract and they could franchise him another two years if they want to play hardball or wait until the cap hit is less significant. 

  • Any trade of Myles Garrett should include the other team taking Jimmy Haslam and DePodesta as part of the deal.
