    Both teams are in different positions, but if you were a Rams fan how would you feel about this trade?

    I haven't seen any of Verse so nothing against him at all but I'd feel like we got away with robbery.

    As a Browns fan, I try to stay optimistic and as with anything else, let's see how it goes.

    I can't imagine them tanking on purpose but who knows, I think we do ok this year.

    As far as draft position, I think we'll screw it up again.

    Since Myles is no longer here I do not wish him the best though I hope he stays healthy and I hope the Rams crash and burn.

    Living by a few out here…they didn’t want Verse included.  When Myles name came up…they were excited about the Verse Myles pairing. 
     

    if I am going to nitpick I don’t have faith in the Rams beyond next season (if old man Stafford gets hurt they arent making the playoffs) so instead of a 2nd and 3rd the following years another 1st in 28 or even 29 would have been great.    
     

    Anyone look at the Rams schedule next season it is brutal in the beginning and towards the end. They could easily miss the playoffs or even be first round exit.

  • The other thing to remember in all of this- there was NEVER going to be a package that was fair for Myles Garrett when you really think about it. The man when it's all said and done could easily have both the highest single sack season and the all-time sack record, it addition to them already fitting his gold jacket. This is all in the context of him being in his physical prime.

    I can tell you this much, though- I ain't buying a single sunday ticket package or anything other than sailing the high internet seas to watch the Browns this year. I completely understand why this happened, but it's not going to be pretty this year.

    This is why there was a strong case to hold onto him.  This may shock the world but not every team can fit Myles in financially or can handle the asset departure and some aren’t at a point and time where it makes sense.  So we didn’t have 25-30 offers. 
     

    You don’t get like for like with a first ballot hall of famer with prime years left.  Because you aren’t getting that player in return at a premium position. They are unicorns.

    So you hope Verse becomes very good and hits double digit sack numbers and you use all these picks now to hopefully find us the best QB we’ve had since Graham or Kosar.   And the money you aren’t paying Myles you take it and spend it wisely adding some other talent.   Hopefully 4 or 5 equals 1.

    Hate to say this, but a Matt Stafford injury would really help. 

    Ooo, you're evil.  🙂  I was thinking the same thing while posting my post earlier....but I didn't say it...'cuz it's evil. 🙂 

    We now have two second round picks in '28...so one of those could be used as part of a trade deal for a '27 QB.  

    Lookin' more and more like Haslam wants the Mannings involved with his team as opposed to the Sanders'.

    Good,Fuck Em. I hope it blows up in their face this time, fuck the lambs

  • Verse was the 2nd best run stopper in the league even ahead of Myles. It's apples and oranges though because Myles was double teamed so much more. But I think the run stopper value of Verse is being overlooked.  

    And how does this work out with the money & cap side? Does this free enough to go find another decent free agent DE on the other side?

  • @dutch-oven said:

    Looks to me like they are saying we tank this season and use draft capital to get the QB we really need in the 2027 draft. And that this is a statement that we know we do not have the QB currently. I can't disagree with that assessment unfortunately.

    At this point I almost wish we would have just lost the last two games of last season, ended up with the first overall pick and we’d be going into training camp next month with Mendoza as the QB of the future.

    It makes you wonder… if it would have played out that way, would the Browns have still traded Myles? They’d already have their QB, so the need for draft capital wouldn’t be there now.

    Verse is going to get paid very soon.  His agent is salivating.

    IF Arch comes to Cleveland, the Manning family will be welcomed with open arms and offered to buy equity in the team- I'd almost guarantee it. Easy way to drum up interest in the new stadium. See Tom Brady and the Raiders. Also makes it way less likely for him to pull an Eli to the Chargers moment.

    Indeed, my friend- indeed. We saw a small glimpse of Myles with competent QB play in 2019-2020 and, God willing, it would have been awesome to see that in three years with an up and coming rookie QB. Alas, three years in NFL terms may as well be a decade in others.

    What a terrible trade. This trade in my opinion does little to help you acquire a QB in the next draft. I would like to know why they felt they must trade him now after just resigning him.

    Do you see franchise QB in Arch Manning?

    Me neither.

    Looks like the Rams first 2 years of cap hit are minimal, then 98 million the next 3 years.

    I'll be honest man, there was a time where I'd follow that sort of stuff to a science. Between kids and other priorities in life my football watching time is way lower yet alone the deep dives into footwork, release angles, and all that jazz. So truthfully I have no good basis to make the answer yes or no.

    All I know is the dude checks off a lot of boxes you want at the QB position and I think it made a lot of sense to go back to Texas this year. He would have for sure gone top 5 if he declared this year on potential alone. 

  • So the 2029 third round pick is a conditional pick, apparently. 

    If the Rams trade Myles to an AFC North team, that pick becomes a first rounder

    Just reinforces what I said about this being a good trade for the Browns. 2nd best run defender in the league and others coming? What more would you want?
